  • She takes a little stick looking thing and breaks the bag of water. It definitely sends you into labor
  • She/he rubs his fingers on your cervix to try to stimulate your cervix into efacing ....they only break your water after you start having contractions if it doesn't/won't break on its own
  • Oh no thats not it i2s when they just like scratch along the tge 2yo of tge cervix n aggravate it sup the body starts labour itself n the cervix starts 2 ripen, they dont like 2yo break the waters till uve reached a certain cm dilated incase.the stripping doesnt work, its safe though
  • Thanks ive never heard of it before so was jus curoius. Im only 33 weeks & 2days.
