I know there's a post here every 2 seconds about getting stripped, but here's mine! I'm getting mine done tomorrow. Last week I was 1 cm dilated and 30-40 % effaced and she said my cervix felt really soft, like lips. I know that for a lot of women it doesn't work, but I everyone I know personally who has had it done went into labor 24-48 hours later. I'm nervous! About it all!
Re: Getting membranes stripped tomorrow! Nervous.
Good luck! I can just speak from my experience and say that I had mine stripped TWICE with our first daughter. Once at 38 weeks then again at 39 weeks. I didn't have her until I was 40 weeks (she was born on her due date).
Like you said, everyone reacts differently and I guess she was just too comfy to come out early. It's nothing to be nervous about, just a little uncomfortable/painful. Nothing comapred to labor! LOL! Not to scare ya or anything.
Best of luck to you and your new little family!
