Hi,
Thanks for the query. I understand your concern.
39 weeks is full term pregnancy. With strong contractions... you should see your gynecologist earliest , get consultation.. & x ray pelvis for pelvimetry /usg abdomen for fetal position&decent in pelvis...also amniotic fluid level ..this would facilitate planning of your delivery.
Thanks.
