Ahh keep me posted! I hope something starts happening soon!

yes I do ! I've been bouncing on it tonight and me and my SO just had sex and now I'm in the bath. so hopefully something will happen overnight for me @emkasting

That's good info, I'm thinking I'll probably be told the same thing. I hope you don't have to be induced! Do you have a birthing ball?

yeah my next appt is next week and ill be a little over 40 weeks so if nothing has happened she wants to do an ultrasound to make sure baby is safe to stay in there longer and then induce me between 41 and 42 weeks. she doesn't want me to go past 42 @emkasting

I'm pretty scared about induction too :/ but since I have a midwife she probably won't even mention induction until at least 41 weeks

lol I'm trying to go natural so I'm really hoping to avoid an induction so that's why I decided to let her do it. but yeah it was not fun and so far I feel normal so idk if its even working for me 😒 @emkasting

Oh gaahhh :(:( nope I'll be refusing that lol

its where the Dr uses their hands to separate the sac from the uterus walls to try and start contractions and get labor started. its a lot of pressure and you can really feel it peeling away from the wall. it hurt :/ when she pulled her hand out she showed me the blood and said I might spot a little bit tonight and that its normal. @brianastowell

What does it feel like? What does that actually mean

it only lasted about 15-20 seconds. but it was very uncomfortable. I'm gonna be kinda upset if this doesn't work bc that was no fun at all lol @emkasting

How long does it take to get your membranes stripped?
