going into labor/induction

What are my chances of going into labor naturally?  With my first 2 i went naturally but im pregnant with my 3rd and im due tomorrow and everyone keeps saying "u have so much to go ur not even dropped" blah blah, things i don't wanna hear. So it's freaking me out that ill have to be induced this time. Statistically if i went into labor naturally with my first 2 i should with this 1 too right?

I need answers pls...

Everyone told me that i hadnt dropped yet either. But a lot of times girls will just drop while in labor which was my case! So you could have that baby at anytime! Youre body will be ready when its ready. No need for an induction. Goof luck!

If youve gone naturally by yourself for the first two I would say that its more likely than not that you will this time as well, as your body knows what to do :)

Its kinda hard to say, I was overdue with my 2 so dont worry about that part, you still have time. This is my third and my midwife was really surprised to find that baby has been dropping at 34wks she said that usually third babies dont drop until late on as they have so much more room to move around, I have a 5yr gap though so maybe my body is not behaving so much like a typical 3rd pregnancy.
Dont panic yet, you may find that baby drops one day and you are in labour the next, you know yourself that babies like to keep us on our toes! Sit on an exercise ball or on all fours to help widen your pelvis and try to encourage the head down, it may help.
