edited August 2011 in Third Trimester
Yet, no boom!. No pop! No baby in my arms! Argh! I would hate to have to go two more weeks and have to get induced! I'm loosing hope that I'll go into Labor by my self.. I have my 40 week appointment today, and I'm thinking about asking to get my membranes stripped. But I dont know how.. How did you ladies ask to get it done?

Comments

  • Ask...I did that with my daughter abd I went into labor that night ..u may have disconfort and mild spoting but its normal and cramps...good luck Mommy
  • Just ask. I did and he said if conditions were favoriable he'd just induce me. If you are honest about what you want then thell be honest back
  • @babyondaway2, @newnommy817, jtmoon98, thanks ladies. im just going to be straight foward and ask him.. i guess im just scared he thinks im obssesing over having him already. but its just that my body is just so tired.
    will it hurt?
  • MMy dr is stripping me tomorrow@ my 39 appt, but am already dialated@ 2cm and effaced@ 40%...good luck, let us know how it goes!
  • Well I was a 3 last week at my 39 week appointment. He said after reaching a 4 it would go faster.. So I'm not sure I'm at a 4 or not.. @ekscvc14
    I'll make sure I keep you ladies updated..
  • OK ladies I went got my membranes stripped, doctor dorky seem so sure it would help at all. So I went ahead and scheduled an induction for Monday.. I gotta admit I am a bit nervous. :'(
    How long untill I feel anything with the membranes being stripped and all.. I'm still a 3 btw. He didn't mentioned how much percent I was effaced.. Just said I was thin.
    @eskcvc14, @jtmoon98, @babyondaway2, & @newmommy817
  • the only way youll "feel" anything is if your water breaks/leaks. but it could still happen. i mean you have 5 days left to get things going on your own. try bouncing on a ball, or your bed, have sex, do squats, takes evening walks.
  • How many squats should I do.. And how long should I bounce on my bed for? Oh and sex is there any position that works better than others..? Walks is there a certin speed or time I should walk for? Ive been walking for the past 2 months and nothing.. @survivormommie3.
  • That stinks, im getting mine striped today, so may be no hope for me either
  • I got my membranes strippen 1 day had spaced contractions next day that night lost mucas plug labour started 4am had bub 7.11am all the best she went 5 days over
