would it be safe!!???

People keep telling me that here where I live if you go into labor @ 36 weeks they won't stop it. Well I'm 36 weeks today. And I'm dilated to a 3 .my doctor thinks my daughter will be early and I won't go all the way to 40 weeks not even 39 weeks. But I'm scared if I have her now that it's a little to early and well I just want to know some of your experiences. I'm a ftm.

But I'm also worried because I haven't gotten the strep b test done yet. I'm a worry wart I know. But I don't want anything to happen Especially if we don't know if Im positive for step b. I was on bedrest because if early dilation and I'm afraid to move because how fast I dilated before hand. N I just don't want something that could be serious to happen. I called by doctor and told her I was worried n felt like I still needed to be on bedrest because I don't wanna have her without the test done.
