Hi everyone! I am going to be 39 weeks tomorrow and I went to the doctor. She said I was 70% effaced with a soft cervix and 3 cm. dialated. She stripped my membranes (ouch!). I also had s_x yesterday in hopes of helping it along. Does anyone know how effective stripping membranes is? I have been feeling some cramping on my cervix today, and I have to go to the bathroom often (diahrea a lot, too - sorry TMI). I am just wondering if labor is getting closer? I feel like I'll be pregnant forever...

I had my membranes stripped with my last child and went into labor that night. I just had it done again with my 3rd on the 28th and nothing with this one so far (the 29th). My Doctor said it works about half of the time and usually within 24 hours

I'm 38 wks & I just had mine stripped today. I am 2 1/2 cm & 80% effeced, 0 to +1 stationed. My dr said that labor normally begins within 72 hours of being stripped & recommended ALOT of s_x & walking to help things along. I have my fingers crossed...good luck to all.
