How long were you having contractions before you went into labor?

I realize I'm going to get a bunch of different answers here, but I have been having contractions for 2 days and was wondering how long it took for you guys? Also I had my doctors appointment today, she said I'm at 3cm, and that my cervix is still fairly thick, but soft. I'm 39 weeks today.
