sorry, being a pain....
those that were stripped and it actually worked.... did you feel anything right away or the effects don't start for a while?
I know it can take up to 3 days but did you feel "something" right away even before labor really started?
Re: another stripping question...
It increased my contraction strength and made me massively loose my mp... like... dang... but it didnt get me rolling like I hoped it would.
edit: It happened a few hours later.
I disagree that it can take 3 days, most people say that labor that starts within 24 hours of a membrane stripping can be attributed to the procedure, the rest is just coincidental.
GL! (Didn't work for me last time at 39 weeks)
The first two times I had my membranes stripped I just had cramping.
The third time? I had cramping that lead to contractions and then baby was born 24 hours later
