A membrane sweep is a kind of induction, where your doctor separates the membranes of the amniotic sac surrounding your baby from your cervix.
I never heard of it either until this app. Then my doc told me today what she was going to do and I agreed. Must say I am havin contractions now so I guess its sort of working. Also it pains alot to walk.
It works if your body is prepared for labor, I had one done my first pregnancy, and the next morning I was in labor.
What exactly is a membrane sweep? I've never heard of it until this app either. It sounds like it would hurt. Just the word membrane gives me shivers lol
