Contractions after membrane sweep?

Emily

Before I went to my appt today I’ve been having contractions every 15-20 minutes since last night. Had my membranes swept today and I’m 1cm and 75% effaced but my contractions the last hour have been closer and more painful...is that normal after a sweep and then they calm down again or is this like the real deal labor??
