What does sweeping the membrane do?

@allistersmommy, Its the doctor basically helping you dilate by opening up your cervix by hand a little bit. I had it done with my first daughter and i went into labor the same day. Its a little painful, but in my experience definitely works.

@allistersmommy, omgsh Yess I'm totally with you. I am so uncomfortable and ready. With my first daughter I was a week over due and was scheduled to be induced but ended up going into labor on my own the day before my induction date thanks to the sweeping of membranes. So I'll be saying a prayer for you that the doctors help you out.

I've mentioned to my doctor that I don't want to go to far over! And he told me they wouldn't let me go too far. so maybe at my 39 week appointment he will do that for me! Thank you! you are in my prayers as well!
