I am 38 weeks pregnant, and I was having contractions 2-3 minutes apart for the whole night and most of the day yesterday. We went to the doctor at 6am, and he was having me walk, rocking on the "birthing ball" and drinking water to try to get her head down. (I am 2cm, and 80%) He was ready to go ahead and break my water, since the contractions were so strong and so close. When he came to check me at about Noon, I STILL had not dialated nor had her head come down noticably lower. They sent me home, and said I'll probably be back this weekend. I am going stir-crazy now! I was so close, and now, I have to wait, and he will not induce my labor, after I had repeatedly asked him. So am I just to sit through these contractions for another 2 weeks? Or is there something I can do? (sex- we tried, just made me nauseated) and walking, I've been walking non-stop since yesterday...this is the first time I sat down. As I was walking, I started to feel A LOT of pelvic pressure, but still no show.
