I’ve been having contractions since I was about 17 weeks.

Today I was walking around and they started happening like every minute or two and I felt pressure like I had to go to the bathroom.

I called my doctor office and the on call doctor called me back and he said to try laying down and drinking and if they don’t stop I need to go to the hospital

I am so scared. I laid down and am drinking a Gatorade and the contractions have stopped but I still feel some pressure. I don’t want to complain about being pregnant because I wanted to be pregnant but it’s been so hard and I want to enjoy it but right now I can’t.
