Contractions real or not?

I’m 38weeks 4 days. Since about 10pm I been having contractions, they aren’t painful more like a dull cramp but my stomach is getting hard. It’s been consistent since then. I also feel pressure in my pelvis when I have that and baby starts moving frantically. I’m gonna wait it out till the morning since its about 3am here and I’m not in any serious pain. I was told when I called the nurse hotline that even if there not painful to go when they get closer together. Any advice??

I have the same and I’m only 34 weeks and 5 days, my Obgyn told me that once they start to come every 5 minutes for an hour straight is when you need to get checked out. Mine felt like period cramps but more severe, like the pains I have because of endometriosis. Just watch the time and count baby movements. But if you’re worried it’s best to get checked out just to be safe. Good luck momma!

Yeah ima go in the morning regardless because it’s late and I’m home alone. My husband gets off at 7:30am so when he gets off he’ll take me I’m not in severe pain but I wanna make sure I’m not dilated more then the last time also
