39 wks, membranes ruptured, no labor, help!

Hello, I'm 39 weeks and early Sat. morning my water started leaking but then stopped. But Sat. evening the midwife still found amnio ferning pattern in my fluid- so the hole did not seal. Despite walking, stimulation, etc, I did not go into full labor (just mild sporadic contrax). We are now 30 hours from when my water first leaked- I took castor oil at midwife's suggestion and threw it up. What happens now? How long can I go with membranes torn? Should I go get hooked up to antibiotics and just wait for labor to start? I'm going to try one more smaller dose of castor oil and see... any suggestions? I really didn't want a hospital birth.
