So I had a sweep today at 37+4 and I’m 1cm dilated and getting lots of pains while walking. Just wondering if the sweep worked for them the first go

How many cm dilated were you?

Yep, sweep worked for me (but I was already in early labor and 3cm dilated, I just didn't know it).
OBGYN did sweep around 9am, waters broke and contractions started around midday, baby arrived 4 hours later. Also at 37+5.

Keep moving and good luck!

Oh that’s amazing!

I’m going to go for a long walk so I’m hoping something will start. For now just have damp underwear with some blood from the sweep
