Membrane stripping...how bad does it hurt?

I'm having it done Monday (if I'm dilated enough). How painful is it?

  • It wasn't very painful for me.  Just felt like an extended internal with a little finger swish in there.

    LOL! Exactly. For me it was 2 fingers swishes... Not painful for me. Cramps afterwards hurt. Hope it works for you!!

  • hmmm I guess it varies from person to person, I had my stripped yesterday and for me it did hurt. enough to make me almost tell the doctor to stop ( I didn't ) but I wanted to . it felt like pp said the Dr was shoving her finger between two object like a jar if you were to run your finger around the inside edge of a jar , but I did end up dilating more right after , and Ive been losing my mp today.
