It really depends on your hospital as the whether or not you'll be admitted. My dr said to go to hospital if contractions are 10 mins apart (or closer) for at least one hour. If in doubt call your hospital and they will advise you what to do. Good luck

If they are really close together u should go. I went in when my contractions were 5 min apart and they sent me home! Def time them and if they are 1-3 min apart you should go in.
