40 weeks pregnant-membranes stripped. What's next?

Question

I'm miserable! Help! Will I start feeling contractions soon?

Answer 1

Just wait and see what happens...

if nothing does then you'll end up being medically induced.

Some s*x might help move things along a bit.

Answer 2

Hang in there!

I know you are probably really anxious for this baby to come! The baby will come when its ready!

Try walking around!

Good luck!

Answer 3

Start walking around and things if you can. This will bring on labor. Its just a waiting game now... good luck!

Answer 4

go walking, do squats, real light exercises, it is supposed to help bring everything on after your membranes are stripped! Good luck hun!

Answer 5

have s*x, or at least an o****m. The hormones in s***n can help to ripen your cervix and o****m can trigger contractions.

Walk loads or drive on bumpy roads. If you have a yoga/exercise/birthing ball, go nuts on it.

Good luck!
