39 weeks 5cm dilated ready for this!

Tuesday was my dr appt. I was told I am 4/5 cm dilated and 70% effaced. The week before I was 3.5cm and the week before that I was 2cm, etc. So I've been progressing each week with minor irregular contractions. Doc did sweep. It's almost been 48 hours. I've been losing mucus plug. I also live an hour away. My mom lives close to the hospital, my husband and I have been staying here in case I go into labor. My kids are with his mom because mine just left for a week. So... if I don't go into labor by noon today, I'm going in to L&D and see if they'll break my water to get this going. I'll have to stay in the hospital for 2 days after baby is born and I've already been away from my other two kids for 2 nights. I can't go home and give birth in car on way to hospital, she needs to come today. So that's my plan. I'm sure they'll contact my dr and since I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow, I don't see them sending me home.
