Why the heck are you trying to tell me what to do in my pregnancy

I don't get it. I just wish some family members would keep there mouth shut. It's like just because you recently had your first baby that you know more about pregnancy and my pregnancy then I do or because you your old then me or also because you have a degree in nurse but are not nurse that works with pregnancy that you know everything and have the right to tell me what I can and can't do. I was told today by my doctor not in a way that I like at all. That tomorrow I'm going home which will be nice even though I know probably with in 48 hours of being sent home I'll be back in the labor and delivery trying to have a baby. My doctor came in my room and pretty much told me they are sending me home because of my insurances which is bs she is sending me home because she isn't getting paid by me and even though I'm still having contractions they no longer medically can do anything for me. Which she should have said in the first place even though she is going against what the on call doctor and the high risk doctor suggestion at all. So I intend to go home and try to induce my own labor since I'm almost term not full term but term. I'm almost 36 weeks and the doctor told me they will not stop labor once it starts so if I come back with contractions that are stronger and closer together they will keep and most likely try to move labor along. If I don't get contractions going harder and faster on my own because it's a shot in a dark if anything happens on it's own right now that at 39 weeks they will look at inducing me once again which I'm fine with. But now my husband sister thinks she knows it all because she had her first kid 2 months ago and said that I need to keep this baby in. I told her well if my body wants him out he is coming out I have no control over how my labor starts and when it starts. My body has pretty much been saying it's time for him and if the doctor felt that he was in danger they would continue to stop my labor and any time I get contractions to try to stop it. She was telling me go home and be on bed rest like she is my doctor what to eat and drink. Hello dear I've had one child already but her excuse is because I'm having a boy he needs to be in longer then a girl. I don't believe in that bs that boys develop differently then girls in the womb. I see it as all babies are different in development just because they can't say when I actually got pregnant they are going off of like all women there last period. I'm going to fallow my doctors order go home and taking it easy. Not go home and lay in bed all day like I don't have things to do or like I'm dying because I"m not dying I"m just having a baby for god sake. Everyone keeps telling me that this must be really scarey and stuff like they know how I feel and what I should be feeling. Not for one second and either of my pregnancy have I ever been scared for my child's life before they where born. Yes I had my daughter around 34 to 35 weeks and she was perfectly healthy now I might have my second baby around 35 to 36 weeks. I'm now 35 weeks and 3 days. There is a very slim chance that I will make it to 39 weeks which is my doctor will look at scheduling me and induction for the second time. Yes at the being of last week they where worried about delivering my baby early just the doctors not me I was never worried because yes I've had one preemie and even with her I was never worried about her safty and her health and it wasn't because she was a girl. It was the fact that I just trust the fact that everything would be alright. Now the only people that believe things will be okay are my husband, a few handful of other mothers that I have never meet in person my MIL and my own mom. Everyone eles seems to worry like it's the end of the world if I have a baby before 40 weeks like all women have to make it to 40 weeks before having a baby. No most always you need to make it past 32 weeks it's still very risky but you have more then a 80% that your baby will not have any issues once your 35 weeks it's about 90% change that there is no issues with your child and after that point pretty much every week is just extra.
