membrane strip?

My membranes were stripped for fist time today, im 3 cm dilated and 70% effaced. Ive had brownish bloody tinged mucus, menstrual like cramping and irregular contractions felt in back and front. How long do these symptoms last for? Anyone actually go into labor within 24 hrs of the stripping?
