So I'm considering having my membranes stripped. I'll be full term (40weeks) when I do, but I'm curious as to if it "hurts". Can anyone give me some advice that's had it done? :)
Thank you ladies 😊 I'll most likely get it done since I'm over this pregnancy haha! At the time I decide to do it, it won't hurt to at least try!
I just had it done 2 hours ago. it hurt me. I have been 3 cm for 2 and a half weeks and I'm 39 weeks so I'm just ready to have him. I felt crampy right afterwards but now I feel back to normal. so idk if it will work for me. it said it can take up to 24-48 hours before anything happens
Well today I was at 1cm. But I won't be doing it for at least another week if I decide to. My doctor said its 50/50 shot so i guess I'm trying to weigh the odds. I can deal with uncomfortable just curious about the level of "pain"
It hurt me!!!! Did not like it but when I went in I was 2cm dilated then I got the sweep then that night had my boy
It's uncomfortable. Might make you tense up. It works for some ppl and for others no. I had it done 3 times and it didn't work. You do have to be dilated at least a fingertip so that the doc can get inside the cervix
@ljsilver, were you dilated at all before you got yours stripped?
I personally have heard that it is pretty painful, I myself am considering getting it done on Tuesday at my appt. my MIL did it and had 100% success, had my BIL same night. But for other mommies it doesn't work! I think I'm going to try it but I'm pretty nervous
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?

Is this the one yall drink to induce??? I'm desperate
Having some pretty intense constant lower back pain and maybe super light contractions. But can't tell because the back pain is way over powering contractions so I'm walking around my room to see if they get worse.
