For me 5 min appart would be to late. With my second i went to hospital when they were about 15min appart..... And you know....we just made it lol. I was dilating very fast. Good luck! And don't feel bad. I would want to be in hospital straight away and if they try to send me home i would flip out lol

Call the hospital and ask for labor and delivery, unless they're 5 minutes apart my doctor wouldn't even see me, and you don't want to get stuck there all day in the beginning stages of labor, wait til your doctors office opens and go from there, good luck!

Well I know your probably excited and nervous but he is right.  They would probably end up sending you home.  I would wait a bit longer until they are quite painful and closer together.

I no u might not be in the mood but if your water gasnt broken you can try to have sex to get your contractions closer together thats what I did with my last pregnancy and 5 hours later I had my baby. I doubt your in the mood though if your contracting lol I just had a very presistant husband lol. U can also try walking around aswell it can help the baby move lower as well.

Try to start timing them if u can, that will help you to see how far apart they are. If there spread pretty apart and arent gradually getting more intense you might just be having braxton hicks. Just keep a eye on it and if it starts getting worse I would call the doctor just to make sure everything is ok. Good luck sweetie!!
