Had a sweep n wondered wen the pain might come?

[Ems]

As it says in the title really. Has n e 1 got n idea wen the pain (if n e) starts up? She said my cervix was not vet effaced but open nd could feel top of babys head. She could stick 1 finger in the cervix to feel him. Also absolutely no pain or discomfort at all just a tiny bit of pressure on my belly. So I guess this goes to those who have experienced this?

I had cramping after both of mine, just a few hours though. It wasn't too bad. Waters broke 7 hours later xx

Cool. I had mine at 1.40 so I guess there still might be time. Sorry to ask but was your cervix favourable when she did the sweep on you xx

It wont necessarily make anything happen for you at all. Usually if it's going to have any effect it will be within a couple of days x

I started getting pain right after mine too and then went into labour later that night but then it stopped again and didn't start again until the next day.
