How soon after you had it did it work?
I had #2 this week - last week was uncomfortable, but nothing but braxton hicks that night.
This time it hurt like a bitch, I had spotting and lost more of my plug, but nothing yet.
-
sweep Tuesday morning, water broke Thursday at 5am.
-
@hilsy85: you're giving me hope!
-
@babycanuck: I think if it's gong to do anything it happens in 24-48 hours. Good luck!
-
Well, take this with a grain of salt because I was 41+4... But I had a sweep around 2:30 in the afternoon and my water broke around 6:45pm the same day. Baby was born early the next morning!
-
I was in full on labor within a few hours. Contractions started about an hour after.
-
It worked right away -- felt contractions shortly after I left the doctor's office and went into labor that night.
-
Sweep 11am, heavy contractions started 9pm. I was 41 weeks. Good luck!
-
Sweep in the morning with mild cramps and spotting after. Labor started at 10pm. I was 40+4 though.
-
Had mine around noon at my 39 AJ appointment and went into full blown labor around 5:30 PM the same day!
-
Did not work at all. Ended up being induced (which did not work).
-
Had a sweep (my second and this one was violent!) at 2pm on 40+5, went into labour around 11pm and had my son before noon on 40+6. The first sweep (at 40+2) didn't really hurt and did absolutely nothing. Good luck!
-
Had a sweep with my first Wednesday afternoon, went into labor next day, Thursday late afternoon.
-
Sweep at noon baby at 9pm!
-
With my first, the sweep did nothing. With my second, I had a sweep around midday and contractions started an hour or 2 later. DS was born 12 hours later!
ETA: I was 39+6 with DS (he was born on his due date).
-
Sweep 1 at 39w did nothing. I got swept again at 40w at 11am, went into labor at 11pm, baby born at 7am!
-
Sweep in the morning went into labor that evening.
-
Labor started ~8 hrs after my sweep.
-
First baby: two sweeps, no progress
Second baby: swept at 1:30 pm Friday, water broke 5:30 am Saturday, baby born that afternoon!
-
DS- sweep at 4pm of my due date. When into labour the next morning at 5am and DS was born at 7am that same morning.
DD- sweep at 3:30pm, active contractions started literally as I was leaving the carpark. Went to the hospital about 7pm that night. She was born the next morning after not the best labour.
For some they work, for others no. Good luck!!
-
Ds1 I had two, 39 & 40w. The first started losing my mucus plug, the second bloody show and contractions started early 40w2d.
Ds2 I had one at 38 weeks around 10am and my water broke the next morning at 5am.
-
Sweep was Thursday afternoon and baby was born by 8:00 AM Saturday.
I was just shy of 39 weeks.
-
I went into labor about 24 hours after my sweep. My midwife said she was pretty aggressive while doing it and it worked! Baby came about 30 hours after.
