Im booked in for my sweep on the 28th if ive not had baby by then, but just wondering for those who have had theres did u take OH in with you?! i would prefer mine to go in with me but dont know if majority of people go in on their own? :wacko:
 
i got mine on wednesday :p and i'm taking him in, its not like he hasn't seen it all before so i'm not fussed or embarassed bout him there :p
 
thats what i was thinking lol, just not wanting the midwife to think im a weirdo taking him in if its not "normal" lol
 
I have my sweep on Monday and was wondering the same! He's never missed an appointment and like Bambina said he's seen it all before so I think he will come with me!
 
My OH was in the same room when I had my sweep the other day but he didn't see anything because the curtain was closed. xx
 
My OH took me but waited in the waiting room. He isn't good with hospitals or anything medical so not sure how he would have been.

I think i prefered it without him there anyway, was perfectly quick and fine. but then again, I have been to many appointments by myself though. I guess, if he had been to all appointments I would have jut assumed he'd come in with me.

I'm sure that the doctors and midwives are used to partners being there and not being there so whatever feels comfortable for you.

i went myself but only cos kev was in bed off the nightshift. i dont see how they would object x
 
my OH doesn't like hospitals , so even if he is there , he will not ant to go in with me

yeah im due on the 20th but midwife wont give me a sweep till 28th :( hopefully ill go on my own before then but cant see it happening to be honest :( i think ill just drag him in with me whether he likes it or not :haha:
 
you should.... i mean its not like he will see as a curtian will prob be put round.... plus he is going to be there for the birth isn't he..... so it cant be as bad as that :p your or him will have no room embarassment then :p
 
If I need to have one I will be taking OH in with me :)

I'm hoping to have one on Monday if nothing happens over the weekend and he will be with me xx

its not the fact that me or him will be embarressed, it was just if this was normal procedure for women to take in their partners, like i wouldnt take my other half in with me if i was getting a smear done just wonderered what other people have done with regrad to the sweep.
 
Hi MW says obstetrician will arrange for one to be done Tuesday (will be 41+1).

OH has been to every MW and hospital appointment with me and will go Tuesday, althought he did say he didn't want to be present at the sweep which is fine by me so long as he is there afterwards.

I hope I don't need one though..... "COME ON BUBS get your head down and come out!"

ill be 41+1 when im due to get mine aswell and i hoping i dont need it either!!!! hope u dont have to wait till Tue to see your wee one :) x
 
They put a curtain up when I had mine. I think thats normal to try and relax you cos they said to him we know you have seen it before!!!! He had to stay on the outside. He was gonna look away anyway. It only takes a few seconds.

xx
 
I've known people to do both, and there were no raised eyebrows in either case. I went in on my own. I would recommend you get someone to at least drive you there if possible, depending on how rough your MW is you might be a little sore and will definitely be a bit distracted afterwards!
 
i'm so nervous bout mine, i've read some women can bleed after their's... Is this true????

Ill be 41weeks when mine is done, i hope it helps if she isn't here by then....
