Successful Membrane Sweep

I had my 39 week appointment today and was still only 1cm dilated with my cervix to the back. My doctor asked if I wanted her to do a membrane sweep so I said yes. I was wondering if this has ever worked for anyone the first time with only being a centimeter dilated? I've only read about it working for women who were 3cm dilated.
