Saturday night (04/18) almost midnight , I started getting contractions they were 30 minutes apart then slowly got closer together and more intense . by 5am they were 10 minutes apart . i went to the hospital they checked me , I was only 2cm dilated 75% effaced I heard something about being -2 ? I'm not sure what that means but they sent me home anyways because I wasn't dilating anymore .. I was so excited thinking I was finally going to meet my son only to get sent home. an hour later the contractions and pressure I was feeling went away and I feel like nothing ever happened .. I'm due 04/27 , I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow I'm a ftm.. Is there a chance I can go into real labor soon ?! Like in a day or two ? I wanna meet my son already ! What can I do to induce labor ? Please don't tell me he'll come when the time is right or when he's ready . I know that I just want to give him a little push !

The -2 is where your baby is stationed at as far as birth.  If you Google baby stations it will show you

Have you tried all the tricks walking, sex, raspberry leaf tea, etc? I am due the 27th as well and have noticed that braxton hicks increased a lot when I started walking everydag. I have also been drinking raspberry leaf tea to help tone my uterus, apparently it makes labor easier and shorter. So we shall see. Hopefully both our boys come soon!!
