I had mine done on the 17th wasn't bad at all but then the last time with baby 3 my cervix was high and closed still and it was pretty painful. This time she didn't seem to need to put that much effort into of so to speak :) neither sweeps worked did me though

It was mildly painful, more uncomfortable than anything. Basically they are just using their hand to rub off a layer. I'd recommend wearing a pantyliner, because it is common to have a tiny bit of blood.
