So I'm 38+ and today woke up to my bloody show and contractions 5 minutes apart. Went to l&d but they just send me home because I wasn't dilated. But i am effaced dont know how much doc didnt tell me. Still getting contractions every 5 or so minutes. Is it possible labor is near??:)

Thanks :) just went for a walk with my hubby n dogs still getting my contractions same amount of minutes apart. Also tracking them. Just resting a bit then imma start doing some house work hopefully that helps too :) I sure will hope he comes soon:)

It is very possible. Try and rest, or if you want to see if you can speed things up, try walking. Around the block with hubby if t is nice out, or just around your house. Also, make sure you keep track of your contractions as well. Pain level, duration and how far apart they are. Keep us posted!!
