Braxton hicks ?

So last night I began getting Braxton Hicks contractions. I got them before so I knew how they felt but this one's a little different through out the night started getting more and more painful and lasting longer and longer. Around 3 a.m. I was able to fall asleep because the pain wasn't as bad. Then I woke up at 6:30 a.m. feeling them again and it didn't end til 8:30 a.m.  I still feel them but their not as strong as before and they aren't lasting as long either. Do you think I should have called the doctor just to make sure everything is fine? Or am I just worrying to much for a first time mommy ?
