Have you had a stretch and sweep?

I am 40 weeks and had my midwife appointment yesterday. I asked my midwife to give me a stretch and sweep, which she did. She said my cervix was still about 2cm long and 1cm dialated. 
Anyone been in a similar situation and care to share?

Hello how did you come out with your stretch and sweep? Did it work and did it hurt?
