Nurse wrong?

Kasey
So I was having contractions on and off this morning and then they got more frequent..about 10 minutes apart..went to the hospital and was only dialated at a 1..and the nurse said that they were just really bad Braxton hicks...so they sent me home. But now they are coming every minute or so and are a lot more painfully...water hasn't broken but I have a lot of discharge. I'm 40 weeks & 5 days and have a doctors appointment tomorrow..but since they have gotten worse and mot frequent..Are they regular contractions or Braxton hicks?
