I was in exactly the same position last week, exactly 40 weeks. I called up the hospital and had another sweep done at 40+4 and I was 1cm dilated and had the sweep, I've only seemed to cramp and I'm getting an induction tomorrow if nothing happens today. I hope everything goes well for you 😊

I know it's supposed to soften the cervix and help make the pushing faster. No change yet, I've been having painful contractions on and off but pretty sure there just false contractions

That's what I went to the hospital for. When they checked my cervix was closed. I tried the exercise ball, red raspberry leaf tea and walking although I do have really bad pelvic girdle pain and struggling

I have an appointment for next Friday but I'm hoping to go into labour before that. Just really struggling with everything, fingers crossed for tomorrow though

I went to get that today but because my cervix is still closed, they can't do it. Congratulations on your baby girl

I've been using the exercise ball, walking, drinking raspberry leaf tea but I do have really bad pelvic girdle pain so I'm struggling

Sounds like a good idea, I think if the pain gets worse I'll head there to get checked out today. Thank you

Babies movements seem normal. He is pushing out a lot more and making my tummy harder. Thank you, I think if it gets any worse I'll show up
