go to L&D?

Question

I am 39+3 and am having mild contractions that are about 7-8 mins apart and have been consistent for the last 2 hours. 
They aren’t super painful. This is my second pregnancy and with my first I was induced so I don’t know if I should start heading to the hospital? 
TIA

Answer

If you close to hospital I would wait till it gets a bit more closer like 6 min to 5 min apart 🙂

Answer

They will probably turn you away if you go now so wait u til they are closer the 5 mins or too painful to talk through

Answer

Usually it’s contractions that are a minute it longer, 5 minutes apart, for one hour or more. Give labor and delivery a call though. They’ll tell exactly what to do in your situation. Not all pregnancies/deliveries are the same.

Answer

I’d call or just go, better safe than sorry! My contractions didn’t hurt at all but they timed right (about 5 minutes apart) but I brushed it off and went back to sleep. Woke up in the morning in excruciating pain and was 8cm when I got to the hospital.

Answer

I would wait until they are closer together, especially since they aren’t super painful.

Answer

Depending on how far away you live I would call them. They will ask you questions and then provide guidance. If you live a good distance I would say call on the way in.
