Do sweeps ever work at less than 40 weeks?

Right, folowing on from this thread, I had an appt at hypertension clinic today. The consultant agreed that at my next clinic appt (when I will be 38+4) they will give me a strech and sweep, and advise my midwife to give me another between then and my induction which will be on or around my due date.

This is exactly what I wanted, but I'm aware that a sweep won't do much if you're not ready anyway. So has anyone ever known one to work before their due date? Am desperately hoping I go into labour before to avoid induction!
