question for those who have had induced labor

Amanda
Do you know if they have to do a membrane sweep before an induction? I hear a lot of people talk about getting it done before an induction, and a lot of people talk about that being very painful. My mom was induced with me, and she had never heard of this being done, so I was going to see what your experiences were. At this time, I don't think I will need to be induced, but I'm curious.
