Hello ladies,
Just wondering if anyone can tell me whether they can do a membrane sweep if they find you aren't dilated at all. I haven't had my cervix checked at all, so have no idea whether I am dilating or not. I am booked in for a sweep on my due date (this Sunday), so if they examine me and find I'm not dilated at all, can they still do the sweep or do they need to wait 'til I'm dilated a bit? I am guessing if they can't fit a finger in, then they can't do it? Or do they just force it open? Gulp!
Thanks!
