This is my third baby. I've been having tons of contractions for a couple weeks now. Last week I was 3 cm and 70%, and had a couple episodes where I really thought I was in early labor (contractions every 5 min, but not that painful) but they ended up dying down after a couple hours. When I had my second, 8 years ago, I was 3 cm for the last few weeks of my pregnancy and when I was finally induced 2 days before my due date, she was born rather fast in 4 hours, and labor never ended up being that painful. I'm a little concerned by the time I really know I'm in labor, this baby is gonna fall out on the way to the hospital (which is 30 min away). I haven't really been doing anything different, except me and DH are still having sex regularly. No other fancy measures.
