HELP ME DIALATE

I AM 38 WEEKS AND I HAVE BEEN IN PAIN SINCE ABOUT 20 WEEKS. i HAVE BEEN READY TO GIVE BIRTH FOR AT LEAST 3 WEEKS NOW (EVEN IF THE BABY ISNT)I HAVE NOT SLEPT IN SO LONG IM NOT SURE WHAT IT IS ANYMORE. MY DOCTOR HAS BEEN TELLING ME THAT MY BABY GIRL HAS BEEN READY(IN POSITION) FOR A FEW WEEKS NOW AND THAT WE ARE JUST WAITING ON MY CERVIX TO RIPEN (OR DIALATE). I CANT BREATH GOOD I CANT SIT IN COMFORT I CANT LIE DOWN. MY STOMACH IS THE ONLY THING THAT HAS GROWN ON ME SO I HAVE 28 POUNDS SITTING IN MY FACE PULLING ME FORWARD I LOOK SO SMALL AND I REALLY AM VERY SMALL TO BE 38 WEEKS (I THINK) EVERY MOVE SHE MAKES INSIDE OF ME IS PURE PAIN I USED TO GET EXCITED AND YELL FOR MY HUSBAND OR 6 YEAR OLD SON TO COME AND WATCH HER MOVING AROUND NOW I JUST GRUNT AND MAKE HORRIBLE BELLOWING NOISES WHILE GRITTING MY TEETH. I AM DESPERATE TO FIND A WAY TO HELP MY CERVIX DIALATE IF YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE PLEASE LET ME KNOW OR EVEN IF ITS SOMETHING YOUVE HEARD I PROMISE TO BE VERY CAREFUL AND NOT DO ANYTHING THAT CAN HARM THE BABY OR MYSELF I JUST WANT TO HAVE HER SOON!
