Lost mucus plug after sweep

I had my 1st sweep yesterday morning & lost my mucus plug at around 10pm last night.
I had slight cramps & twinges during the night but nothing consistent. I'm not sure if this is a sign of labour starting or not - I'm due tomorrow.

Did anyone else go into labour after losing their mucus plug following a sweep? If so, how long after?

I had a sweep and lost my mucus plug that night but didn’t go into labour till a week later

I've had 2 sweeps and lost mucus plug with the first and then bloody show with the second....still no baby 😣. But with my first I had a sweep and he came the next day. They still come when they're ready 🥴

I had a sweep Monday and lost my plug this morning, nothing since, no cramps etc!

When I lost my mucus plug, I went into labour 3 days after. It started with cramps and twinges that became gradually more intense and closer together x

I didn’t have a sweep, but when I had my baby last month, I lost my mucus plug at 2:30pm and then my waters broke at midnight and went into labour an hour after xx

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃
