in l&d!!

I went to my 38 week appt today and when I got checked I was 3cm dilated and 100% effaced. She also said she could feel my water bag buldging so she said to go home and walk. Well after she checked me I went home and when I peed there was a lot of blood so I called the doctor and she said it was probably from her checking me. Well I went for a 30 minute walk then picked up my boyfriend from work and was having contractions every 7 to 8 minutes. Well when I got home my contractions were every 5 minutes. I called my doctor and they told me to go to the hospital. Well I'm here in labor and delivery just got the epidural (which is a life saver) and having contractions every 2 minutes. Doctor should be in soon to break my water!! Finally gonna meet my baby boy. His due date was 11/18/2014!
