How do I get in active labor?

Sara

I just hit 37 weeks. I’ve been contracting 4-5 minutes apart for going on three days now, 2 cm dilated and 50% effaced when the OB checked me yesterday. I haven’t had my bloody show or my water break, any tips on how to get either of those to happen so I can get into active labor and not get discharged again?
