Hi everyone. Well, the wait is almost over. I'm really getting excited. I just wanted to see if anyone has had this done with success and/or get your thoughts about my situation.

I went in for my 40wk appt (hopefully last one) yesterday and i'm dilated 2 cm and 80% effaced. Baby's head is right there at -1 station. My DR decided to strip my membranes in order to get things progressing. (which was a bit painful I must say). She said that if this works to get labor started I should go into labor within 1-2 days. I have noticed the contractions are more intense than I have been having but not regular enough for me to think it's actually starting yet.

Has anyone had this done and went on to have the baby soon after?
