Sweep today!!

[Heatherb]

I had my little girl at 40 +5, 3hrs after my sweep,MW said i was 1cm dilated and favourable, so good luck

Wow, that's a bit scary!! No such luck for me though, 6 hours on and still just back ache and period pains really.

(what does effaced mean BTW )

Hi, effaced means the amount that the cervix has thinned out I think. So, still a way to go yet, but definitely moving in the right direction.

Fingers crossed.

I think i'm meant to be having a sweep friday. Hope i can avoid it!

If things progres let us know , good luck!

hope it isnt too long for you

 

[Baileysmummy]

how are you feeling now hun, any signs yet!

 

[alsha]

Good luck hun, hope it really kicks in for you soon

 

[Heatherb]

Well, it seems to have all slowed down since I had a bath. Still getting some really strong BHs, that cause a little backache and periody pain, but nothing really painful.

Hoping that something more happens overnight, but not getting my hopes up too much.

Will update as soon as anything starts up again.

Well, nothing at all last night.

Didn't sleep particularly well either though, as I kept waking up to see whether I was having any pains.

Going to try walking lots today, but not holding my breath.

I am so disappointed. I really thought it was the start of labour. I'm getting really depressed at the thought of another weekend without my baby.

Backache is a sign of labour, you proabbaly are in labour, its just progressing too slowly - for your liking and ours lol

 

[topbird]

Oh honey..... hope things get moving today for you.. not too late to have your LO by the weekend!

 

[lmarszall]

HUGS!

Cos i feel the same. My pains and backache have stopped and i am really depressed now thinking i have another week to go

Although i have midwife tom and she might do a sweep. But to be honest it would have been nice to avoid it!
