Q: When will my baby be here?

I went to my prenatal on Monday to find out I'm 3 cm dialated so my dr stripped my membrane. The next morning my mucus plug fell out I had contractions but they stopped. I walked all evening and did squats and I went in to find out I'm still 3 cm. so this morning I had more mucus discharge but feel nothing just baby moving. I'm due on Sunday and this is my 3rd pregnancy.

Stripping the membranes isn't always successful in kickstarting labor. In my case, my water broke about 24-36 hours after my ob stripped my membranes, but it seems I hear more stories where it didn't work. Incidentally, I was eating super spicy food that night and would have a contraction every time I bit into a jalapeño haha. Worth a try maybe if you can do spicy food.
