contractions 6 min apart

So this morning at 7:17 I starting having contractions. Nothing painful, just tightening. They were 6 minutes apart andhave had 10 within an hour. Now they are farther apart. From 12 mins - 20 mins apart! Is this false labor?? I'm going to see my Dr in about 45 mins to see what is happening.

When I went into labor with my first child my contractions where all over the place. They were real contractions because my water had broken.

Hmm could be false. But also could be preterm labor.
