Visting from July 12'

Did any of you ladies get your membranes swept? If so, how long did it take to go into labor?

Thank you!

Yes. My water broke that night. I still needed to be induced though because contractions wouldn't start. I was 41 weeks.

I did, but it didn't work for me--wound up having my water break at 41 weeks on the morning I was to be induced.

I had it done at 8 am and was back at the hospital to test my fluid at 4 pm because I felt like I was leaking a lot. I tested positive for amniotic fluid, so we were admitted. Had to start pitocon at 8 and water broke (gushing) around 11 pm. I was 40 weeks 2 days. Good luck!

With my first my doctor said he didn't sweep them but he gave me a 'rough' internal. She was born the next morning. Both my girls were exactly 2 weeks early. So I dont know if the internal had much to do with it or not, with my second I only had one internal at 35 weeks.

I had it done... but it was in combination with other induction methods, so I have no idea if it helped...

I had it done, and it worked like a charm! I had it done around 10:15 in the morning. Started feeling period like cramps around 11:00 or 11:30. Started having intense contractions around 5:00 and my baby was born at 10:38 that night - so he was born about 12 hours after I had it done.

Yep, water broke 48 hours later!
