Oh...I should mention that I was still only at 1 1/2 cm when my water broke...but started progressing slowly then.

It hurts a bit. I had one done with no results. After sitting at 1cm for 3 1/2 weeks. The second one hurt worse but did the trick. That was Wednesday, lost my plug over the next 3 days, and then my water broke on Sunday morning at 11:40 am. Had baby 6 pm Monday night.
