Early Labor

Amy
So I'm 36 weeks and doc says I'm 1cm and 50% effaced but she had to move around baby boys head to find my cervix. Occasional contraction but major aches and pains in groin, pelvis, and rectal/tailbone area! Any ideas on labor progressing? Doc wants to induce on 29th due to gestational diabetes but from her tone I don't think she believes we will make it. She told me to carry a towel with me in the car and sleep on one in the bed because my water could break at any time and I would have a gush. 
Anyone else in similar situation?
