When should I call the doctors?

Question

I am 37 weeks pregnant, and all day I have been having Braxton hicks. They arent painful but just constant and annoying. I am hydrated and been doing everything to get them to stop and nothing is stopping them. Im sure im not in labor but idk what to do.

Answer

Just keep them in count y
That you could be having actual contractions, with my 2nd child i barely felt my contractions and i just assume it was Braxton hicks because it wasn't painful at all and ive been having them all day, if it wasn't for my partner who convince me to go hospital which we did because it was coming in every 5mins, as soon as i got to the hospital i found out i was fully dialated and my midwife could feel bubs head and i was immediately rush to the birthing room to push. 10mins later i gave birth to my 2nd child 😅...

Answer

Keep resting hydrating and timing them.  They’ll either get worse or end up going away.

Answer

Never hurts to give them a call. Their answer will probably be to come in and be checked since they can’t tell anything without assessing you. That’s the part I hate. I wish they could work magic over the phone so we didn’t have to go in just to be sent home!
