Should I Be Nervous 39wks5

well I'm about to be omw to my last doctors visit before its time to give birth. Thing is last weeks appointment I was only dilated to a 1 so I asked about stripping the membrane which I'm thinking he will do today if I'm pass 1 which I hope I am. I've been having false labor all week on and off. I've heard that a membrane sweep hurts and I've also heard it doesn't hurts it's just uncomfortable! I don't like pain lol... Ladies please give me some advice, should I be worried??! This little prince has to get out ASAP lol

Thanks for the answer back, I went today and instead of the sweep, I will be getting induced on Tuesday morning. My cervix had reclosed smh. It's 3 days after my due date but hopefully my lil prince will be here before then

Well i have 3 boys going on my 4th and i would walk, walk, and try to have sex.. that will get things going, stripping the membrane does help and it's uncomfortable but bearable for considering how uncomfortable you are at almost 40 weeks! Hope that helps!  God Bless you and your baby!
