Ok after reading stuff here I thought you might be interested to know I was dialated to a three for umm I think three weeks before anything actually happened. So even if you are dialating you still might be a long while. I would just call her and ask her what is going on instead of worring about stuff. I also have just one other info on the whole c bit...the women I know who do end up having to have c exspecially if they have been laboring for several hours and or pushing before a c is performed do have a much harder time recovering and not just phiscialy. It's hard to try to take care of a new baby when you have trouble just getting in and out of bed. I'm not saying that's what's going to happen I'm just passing along the info I have. The only other thing I want to mention is that it seems to be a trend that more and more doctors would rather indcue on your due date without any medical reason I know of. After two weeks overdue there are worries about the placenta becoming partially detached and the baby not getting enough nutriens and stuff. If a doctor thinks the baby is very big they might induce exspecially if the person has a small fram...my sister shannon had that happen but her baby's are about 10 pounds and just big, she's had two get stuck which is not a pleasent thing and can lead to the use of forceps or the vagume extrator thing...side note my neice had to have her coler bone broken because of this but it healed really fast. I really hope that might help you understand things a little and didn't freek you out cause that wasn't my goal.
