I'm a FTM and my ob attempted to strip mine but It was so painful for me...she only stripped a little because I wouldn't let her... I know everyone is different... Or maybe I'm just a big baby! I'm sure you will be fine!

I thought it hurt a lot. I wouldn't do it before 40 weeks though (personally, I would wait until 41 weeks/facing an induction). It won't do anything unless you are already on the verge of going into labor, so why bother? Baby will c
