sweeping the membrane?! did i secretly get it done?

edited November 2011 in Third Trimester
So I told the doc(changes each visit) how my husband is deploying soon and how I wanted to get my membrane stripped or induced another way(even though I rly want to go all natural) well she told me they can't induce until 41 weeks.

My exam: fudge it hurt and I am slightly torn between my vajayjay and butt. After talking to my mom about it and thinking. The more I look into it it sounds like she did do the sweeping afterall! She said she was pushing on the babies head and circling her finger around my cervix. And kept asking if I was cramping and she mentioned maybe id go into labor tonight. Advised me to walk!

Who has gotten the sweeping done and how did it feel to you? I was cramping and it hurt bad that I was almost in tears(ya I'm a baby) she had me put my hands in fists under my butt so she could reach my cervix good.

Did she do me dirty(haha my husband just said this) and secretly do it and not tell me so she don't get in trouble? :D or am I just hoping and blowing it out of proportion?
