39+4 with dc5

Last time i saw mw i was told they cant do a sweep in the community until 40 weeks

Now i am due to see her this afternoon and according to my notes this is my 40 week appointment

So is she likely to be willing do you think?

Why is it you would like a sweep? Some babies aren't ready until 42 weeks and sweeps aren't really known to work.

My last baby was born within 24 hours of a sweep

Anyway. She said no.

Sending sympathy - I’m only 37+4 and already getting to the ‘Get this baby out of me!’ stage! DS stayed in til 41 weeks Confused Fingers crossed your baby arrives soon! Have they booked a sweep in for 40 weeks?

Have one booked for 40+4, also have a growth scan at 40 and told they may be willing then
