I've never had a membrane sweep before, and I want to prepare myself in case my dr wants to do one tomorrow.
I usually have excellent labours, I can talk through my contractions, which feel just different enough from Braxton hicks that I know I'm in labour. Then out of nowhere with only 1-2 contractions they're painful and I've gone from being 5-6 cm to a 10cm and ready to push. So I'm a little worried about getting a sweep done. I hear they make you really crampy? I want to make sure I know when I'm in labour and make it to the hospital on time. I'm also GBS+, not sure if that makes a difference.
So what happened to you after having a sweep done?
I'm 40 weeks today.
Re: What's it like...membrane sweep
Mine attempted one on me a when I was pregnant with my first, and it felt like a really aggressive cervical check.
