A member asked:
Will a sweep work at 38 week 4 days ' how long after sweep does labour come on ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can: Usually symptoms start within an hour of a sweep if it is successful. Patience is needed and your baby will be with you soon enough. Walk and be healthy and there are more reliable ways to induce labor when it is time.
