Having membranes stripped on Monday

Ugh mine was horrible, but in fairness my doc p'd me off by not warning me she was doing it hten when I asked denied it only saying it was an 'aggressive check'.

Bonnie-you arent due yet right? Why the sweep? Supposedly it will only get yoru body going if it ready anyway, it didnt work for me--but it can cause your water to break or leak which would do the trick for sure. Oh and even if it doesnt work it will probably thorw you into tons contractions for a couple days and bleeding etc I was very uncomfy for 3 days after mine.

Haley-think of it like a water balloon that is holding baby sitting inside you and they are trying ot separate your bag (water balloon) from the cervix and surrounding. It is just like when they check to see how far you are dilated but they they sweep their fingers around in a circular fashion--veyr unpleasant.
