CoNtRaCtIoNs!!!?


I am 27 weeks and 1 day, Yesterday I started having contractions. At first they were irregular then they became 6 minutes apart and were lasting about 40 seconds. They eventually stoped.
Since I have been up (6 hours) I have had 3 that were irregular and lasted about 15 seconds.
Should I be concerned? Everytime I call my doctor she tells me to go to the ER; however, I don't feel I like I'm in labor!
Please help... with serious ansers & experience!!

Answers:
Braxton-Hicks. That's all I can say to you sweetie. It's nothing to be worried about and they are completely normal for a lot of women. If you do go to the ER, they will tell you about braxton- hicks, probably give you some pamphlets and send you home after hooking you up to a $300 fetal monitor and checking you for dilation. If they do become regular, yes go to the ER. As long as they are not regular, they are braxton-hicks and nothing to be worried about.
LISTEN TO YOUR DOCTOR! Why wouldnt you go to the ER if your doctor tells you to??
