No one can tell you when you're going into labor. Babies and nature have their own ideas about things. But at 38 weeks, your baby is already full term so expect that on any day you can go into labor. Pack your bags and always have it ready.
Are you dilated at all? If not, you can perhaps watch when you lose you mucous plug. How to do this - always watch the toilet before you flush. You will see a big clear jello like thing, could be tainted with some blood. You will not miss it. After you lose your plug, you will start to dilate.

Only two more weeks until your due date and I know you have been pregnant forever. The next two weeks will feel like two years but then it will be over and you will have your precious baby to hold.Your contractions can start at any time now but you will usually drop before they start. If this is your first baby it will seem like one day the baby is very high and the next he is laying on your bladder and you will be running to the bathroom every 5 minutes. Once this happens labor usually starts in a week or so. I know it all seems to take so long and you are aching to see your baby but it will happen and soon. Don't worry about not knowing you are in labor you will know. Right now put up your feet, relax, watch the tube, do Yahoo answers because in a very short time you will not be able to do all of these things. Babies are very demanding little creatures. God bless you and your little one.

My baby never dropped!!! Going into labor is different for everyone! For me, my contractions started every 3 min. and they hurt...I to stop what I was doing to go thru the pain. If you begin having tightness in your stomach at regular intervals less than 4-5 minutes apart, then you call the doctor! But, if you feel like your in labor but not sure, please call your doctor. They will instruct you on what to do! And, your baby will come when it's good and ready...so, put your feet up and try to relax!!!

How can anyone here possibly know when you are going to go into labour? Even your doctor would have problems predicting that.
Sometime in the next 4 or 5 weeks, otherwise they will induce you.
