Autie asked:


I’m 39 weeks pregnant and the doctor stripped my membranes this morning. I had been feeling cramping for a few days now and even had some actually contractions last Saturday for a couple hours. After the procedure I had some stronger cramping so I followed with walking the mall for an hour and a half and sex… After that I saw some mucus with a few drops of blood.
After a nap I’m no longer feeling the cramping. About how much longer will all of this take?? Any suggestions on getting this started any sooner?

PS. I’m 1cm dialated, and the baby has dropped already.
