Hi I am 39 wks. pregnant, 80% effaced and as of last Tue. 3cm dilated but still have not gone into labor. I have still been having contractions but nothing that progresses into labor. I don't understand why my contractions haven't gotten closer together and why I haven't gone into labor. Does anyone have any advice?
