HELP !!

I'm 39 weeks and 4 days . I've been to the hospital because my contractions are 3 min apart. But they sent me home because I was only 2cm and 80% . What can I do to at least get to 5cm ? I'm miserable . I've tried everything .

The best thing I did was relax and wait it out. Before I knew it I was in labor. I tried everything too then finally gave up and that's all it took.

Rub under your ankle. I wasnt dilated at all and it sent me right into a quick labor.

The more sex you have the more your cervix thins. Sex, nipple stimulation, walk, exercise ball.
