Why do they strip the membrane? what does that do? sorry, If that's a dumb question!

But definitely keep moving. I had sex as soon as I got home from my appointment and I think that helped. Then I relaxed for a bit and felt the first contraction and got up that was like 6:30pm and I paced and squatted and bounced until 10pm and finally went in

With my first son I had them stripped at 37 38 and 39 weeks and he still came on his due date exactly lol. My second son, I had them stripped at 37 weeks and was in labor 4 hours later. I think it just depends :)

I had mine stripped and went into labor the same night but my doctor thought contractions every 4 minutes apart and 5 and 1/2 cm dilated wasn't good enough for her so I was sent home and came back that very night at 9 and 1/2 cm dilated and contractions every 1-2 minutes apart

I had mine done on a Friday and Sunday night around 8 pm my water broke as I was in the pot. It started slow and by 830 my shoes was soaked as I was checking in at the w'e.r

if you pace walk for 2 hours straight (I know that's a long time) its suppose to have you dialate more and labor could begin tonight if not tomorrow
