Ripe Cervix

I'm 39+2 weeks, and I had my appointment yesterday. My OB did a stretching of my cervix (which was extremely painful!) and said everything seems good because my cervix is ripe! How long does it take before I go into labour, or what can I do to speed it up. I really don't want to go past my due date, because she intends on stretching me again lol.
