If doctor strips membranes, do you still lose your mucus plug?
Ashley R asked:
Okay… I have had my membranes stripped 3 times (I was confused until recently exactly what “stripping the membranes was… now knowing it is where your health care provider will separate your bag of water from your cervix). Well, as I was saying, I have had this done 3 times now - at 38 weeks, 39 weeks, and yesterday at 41 weeks. The first 2 times I had spotting for the rest of the day. However yesterday, even though she was quite rough, I didn’t have any spotting. Well, this morning, I had a lot of contractions (not “regular” ranging from 5-15 minutes apart for about 4 hours). I have not had a contraction in about 5 hours now, and just went to the restroom and had a bit of mucus with some blood streaks in it. Anoyone out there know if you can still lose your mucus plug if the doctor strips your membranes or do you think this (more than 24 hours later) could be result of stripped membranes…. ???????? Thanks!!!!

you r dilating!!!!! great.stripping just helps you to thin your water sack and hopefully break it and cause hormone release to start contractions.good luck and congrats!
