  • It didn't work for me.

    I was 3 cm dilated and completely thinned. My doctor did the sweep on a Monday.... I waited until the following Monday and went back. I hadn't dilated any more at all.

    I had to be induced on Feb 2.

    I know a couple girls who say it did work.. but for me it didn't.

  • Rarely do they work! I had 3 of them before I finally delivered.
