& you basically go home to wait for the contractions to start they say u can bleed from it nothing to serious just spotting. But my doc had scheduled me for it after I had asked what does it do.
Stripping the membranes. In this procedure, your doctor or midwife will use a gloved finger to gently separate the amniotic sac from the wall of the uterus. This releases hormones that can trigger contractions. You can get it done in your doctor's or midwife's office. It can be uncomfortable.
Did u just ask your doctor for the stripping of membranes or did they offer ? I'm due the 9 th and I really don't want to go over . I have bad sciatic nerve pain . Just can't move anymore :/
My due date is the 6th, and I haven't felt anything, including my Braxton hicks. What is membrane stripping though ?
