Question about ripening?

edited September 2011 in Pregnant
So I heard primose pills inserted by your cervix ripens your cervix. What does ripen mean? Does it mean makes you thin out, or does it mean make you dilate more? Or a combination of both..?

  • Thin out so u can dialate. :)
  • Good ?? Lol I really don't know but I.know I started doing that and inserted 3 vaginally and 1 oral and with in 4 days I was at the hospital giving birth I was 38 wks 4days so it worked for me I think or baby was just ready to come out
  • (Sorry) hmm I guess that would make sense @momof22be ! Lol I'm thinking of trying them, hopefully they work! Only time will tell thanks guys (: @dmaciel
  • well they worked for me i went to 70% effaced but my body wont dialate otherwise it would have good luck wear a pad they r messy and do not put them in till u lay down to sleep
  • Oh goodness, I heard you could prick a little hole in the capsule to make it work better before sticking them up there? doctors say I'm actually pretty thin but I'm dilating SO slow! weeh, ); @momof22be
