41 weeks pregnant today.. considering a membrane sweep?
Just hit 41 weeks today. Second baby. Had a lot of strong sharp pressure with some pain all day yesterday and then kind of painful but manageable irregularly timed contractions last night lasting just under a minute each. Woke up today and not really feeling any of that today other than some mild pressure. I have an appointment today and I’m considering a getting a membrane sweep if I’m 3+ cm dilated. I’ve never had one before so I’m on the fence. I went to a different office last pregnancy and they induced me at 40+6 so I wouldn’t hit 41 weeks. I remember that day I woke up with the same type of feelings I had all day yesterday and went in for my induction at 3 cm dilated. This office will let me go until 41+6 but as the days go by I’m just really really hoping I don’t have to be induced again which is the only reason I am considering a membrane sweep if I’m 3cm +. Also because I know risks go up as pregnancies pass 41 weeks. I just need thoughts, advice or experiences please!! 🙏🏻
