"False" or early labor

Danielle
Moms and moms to be... how many of you have gone in to the hospital with false or ealy signs of labor. Especially those with two or more kids. .. I have had this each time and it makes me feel so foolish even though that's not my fault. Had contractions from afternoon tues thru AM. Went in. Was checked... progressed in two hours with walking... and then went to go eat and walk outside. Got home and contractions became intense snd 3-4 mins apart. Jgst before I was ready to go back I was able to fall asleep and they dissipated. Now feels like a normal day... I am almost 38 wks and this is my third baby. Is this unusual? Anyone else's body playing tricks??
