it can help you when you get induced. i had one 3 days before i got induced with my last. (idk how it helps though lol but i know it does) & no it has never hurt me @sexii_diiva it feels like they are checking the cervix just maybe a slight difference in "pain" but really there is no pain. idk if that makes since sorry

@mommybump3 does It hurt... && idk cuz my apt Thur.. if I ask him I only have 1 week & 2 days til my induction lol

if you want it done i would ask and see if your doctor will do it. some doctors wont offer it. it takes them like 10-15 seconds @sexii_diiva

oo ok @mommybump3

my doctor always offered to do it... last week i had to see my doctors partner and she offered also. @sexii_diiva

@mommybump3 is this something you ask for or they just do it?

@alexandrajoy13, is it ur first bby ???

@kayla02, Ohhh yeah my doctor never mentioned it either! I just think the baby will come when it wants to lol. I get induced at 41 weeks though if no baby.

wow yeah i thought its been longer than that haha!! I also had it done with my last pregnancy and i didnt feel any pain than eaither :) @kayla02

@mommybump3, u had it done at 37 weeks . I'm going to the doctor on Thursday again I'll ask about it.

sometimes I feel ready and sometimes I don't . I just see alot of post about stuff like this about inducing labor and it makes me wonder if it really works I have a 3 yr old n I never heard of this @alexandrajoy13

iv had it done it doesnt hurt im my opinion.. im hoping my doc will do another one tomorrow!

Oh Idk! Some people say it does and some say it doesn't. Are you ready to get baby out? @kayla02

Yeah that lol . I know I heard too but I was just wondering if it really works in getting the process going with labor @alexandrajoy13

I heard it hurts!

Your membranes ?

did you ask for it ? @dani_8513

Mine did it at 38 weeks
