Had my 40 week mw apt and all is well in the bp/urine/baby hb areas so that's good!! She offered a sweep so I accepted, I know it goes against the hypnobirthing principles but I was quite intrigued to see if everything was ok up there iykwim as I'd been having some snotty discharge and was hoping it was my plug (which she has confirmed) apparantly baby is fully engaged and she could feel his head when doing the sweep and my cervix is soft and favourable which is apparantly good!! She's advised I go home have a glass of wine, a curry and dtd, of all 3 options the wine is the only one I'm looking fwd to :rofl:

Fingers x it will set things off, I do feel very period painy now, and went for a 2 mile walk straight after so hopefully there will be a labour thread soon :)
 
Hehe I love her advice!! This is so exciting - best of luck tonight!! I'm also following the hypnobirthing techniques xx


 
Oh wow, hope we have a labour watch soon then, all sounds very good! Enjoy the wine and make the best of the other two :rofl:
 
Good luck hun. She sounds like a nice midwife! I've got my second sweep in the morning, really hoping this one does the trick as I'm running out of time now! Xx
 
Best of luck, hope it all works and you will have your LO in your arms in no time. Don't forget to keep us updated. :)
 
Been a bit quiet on the labour watches recently :( come on baby!!! :cheer:
 
Thanks :) Well I really enjoyed my glass of wine but no sign of anything happening yet although my bump feels quite gripey and there is loads of pressure down below. Will update if anything further happens :)
Good luck with your 2nd sweep tomorrow rachcraig all my fingers crossed for you xx
 
Maybe she's too busy giving birth to update us! FX!! Good luck x
 
No news to report yet, I was convinced there would be by now :cry: just had a really long nap as was tired out, still having period pains but apparantly sweeps can take 48 hrs to fully work so I'm hoping something happens tonight, everything feels so ready!!!!
 
wow it must be so frustrating bt really hope things kick off tonight gonna be watching out for your posts and if i dont quite catch it there and then wishing you all the best xxxxxxxxx
