My doc did it at 38 1/2 weeks, and I had my baby a couple of days later! I'm pretty sure it worked. ;) Warning: It doesn't feel too good, but it's pretty quick.

With my first, I had it done at 39weeks and I lost my mucus plug the next day. I started dilating and got to 2cm by 40w but still needed to be induced at 40w1d because it didn't start labour.
I didn't have it done with my second and I still lost my plug at 40w2d and went into labour that day naturally.
I think that it depends on the person and the individual pregnancy. And I've heard that it doesn't work more often than it does.
Good luck and fingers crossed that your baby comes soon!

Nope, sure didnt.... I remember that on one day they stripped my membranes, and gave me 2 gels.... the next evening I was induced and had baby early the 3rd morning. This was all at 41+ weeks.

i had this done yesterday but nothing has happened. I'm getting induced in 3 hours time. I'm 40 weeks today and have gestational diabetes and a mild case of cholestasis

My daughter had it done she went into labor on the 2nd day.
They said if she didn't have the baby over the week-end to come in on Monday
