Default Re: help about sweep pleeaassee

It depends on many things. If her cervix is already starting to soften than she stands a better chance. The fact that it's her 2nd babe means the midwife has a better chance of getting her fingers between the cervix and membranes to do the stretch and sweep too, again improving her chances.

At the end of the day though, if baby isn't ready yet, the stretch and sweep won't do much. Fingers crossed for her, she sounds to be having a rough time, and keep us posted
