anyone else ??

So Wednesday I had an appointment.. My bp was high so they sent me to L&D for monitoring and to R/O preeclampsia.all the test came back good so they roles it out... However the Dr picked up I was having full blown contractions every 4-6 and then every 2-3... He checked to see if I was dialated at all.... Nope not even a fingertip. Still thick as well. When he was doing the internal exam he also realized I was bleeding but said he thinks the contractions are stressing the cervix... So I guess my question is did any of u have or are doing the same thing? Did they end up inducing? I'm 37+2 shouldn't I be dialating and thinning even a little? Especially with contractions so intense and close together? Also what are some tips to get the ball rolling.... Oh also when they were picking up the contractions... I didn't feel anything???? Is that healthy? Will I know when I'm in labor?

Ok I had contractions at 34+1 that were four minutes apart and I didnt dilate at all. My doctor said its because they weren't strong enough which is also why I didn't feel half of them. Try sex, walking, bouncing on a ball or edge of your bed, also primrose oil
