AJOG Expert Review in Labor: Methods for the induction of labor: efficacy and safety - Membrane sweep
Membrane sweeping, or membrane stripping, can be performed by obstetrical providers by sweeping a gloved finger across the membranes that connect the amniotic sac to the wall of your uterus. The act of separation of the amniotic membranes from the uterus promote the release of prostaglandins, which aid the process of cervical ripening. https://ow.ly/SbLZ50R0iCV
Did you get a sweep?? (I hope it was consensual.) Did it do what you expected??
