Baby was here within hours. This was for my second. I didn't have it for my first. We were encouraged to have sex and it helped ease the pain from the contractions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791741 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 22:16:23 +0000 starchild 2791741@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞 for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791706 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 17:06:09 +0000 PinkElephant 2791706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had a membrane sweep before lunch at around 38 wks with baby #2....had baby #2 in my arms shortly after dinnertime. Lots of cramping that lead to contractions in between. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791669 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 14:01:56 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2791669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious.. why were they swept so early in your pregnancy? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791661 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 12:44:42 +0000 BeatlesFan629 2791661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had mine swept 40+3 (morning), went into labor the evening of 40+4 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791643 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 12:03:42 +0000 DesertDreams88 2791643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had my membranes swept on my due date, at 1cm dilated and 90% effaced. It was VERY uncomfy and I could feel, like, "strings" snapping.... so I think it was a legit sweep. However, sadly, no cramping or contractions, and I didn't go into labor until I was induced at 41+1, and LO wasn't born until 24 hours later on 41+2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791640 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 11:51:32 +0000 Alba4 2791640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>SEems early to sweep! Membrane sweeping put me into labor. Both times I delivered within a couple of days. My dr swept me @ 38 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791636 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 11:41:34 +0000 LBee 2791636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a membrane sweep at 38 and 39+4 weeks. I did not go into labor after, despite having tons of contractions / cramping and losing my plug.</p> <p>She was born on 39+6. I was already in early labor when my "gentle induction" started. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791632 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 11:26:11 +0000 trixi 2791632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had mine at 40 +3, baby was born 40+ 5 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791631 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 11:22:11 +0000 avivoca 2791631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had my membranes swept at 41+4.</p> <p>Baby was born the next morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/membrane-sweep-cramping#post-2791628 Wed, 13 Dec 2017 11:12:13 +0000 Eko 2791628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a membrane sweep yesterday morning at 37+3. The whole day I had insane cramping. I had read cramping is pretty normal, but I am past 24 hours and still having cramping and back pain. This is my second. </p> <p>Wondering others experience with membrane sweeps and labor. </p>
