contractions at 30 weeks

Kristian

So I'll be 31 weeks tomorrow and last night I went to the hospital because I was have extreme cramping and pain in my back and lower abdomen. They hooked me up too the machines to monitor me and the baby and about thirty minutes later they told me that she was laying on my sciatic nerve but I was also having contractions. Of course I was like oh so this is Braxton hicks.... NOT. I was having real contraction and had to be given a muscle relaxer to stop them. Now I'm freaking out. What do I do?!
