keep forgetting but when should i go in

I keep forgetting to time my damnnn contractions but if I could make a guess I'd say they last like 2 minutes or around there every maybe ten to fifteen minutes, they are back contractions too. I don't feel it in my abdomen just my Lower back. Im 39 weeks. They hurt but there bearable right now. When should I go in? Or should I just wait till my water breaks.

Sounds like you've got time.  Might want to get one of those free contraction timers from the app store to help you keep track.  Good luck!

I would wait til they are 3-5 minutes apart. You can always call labor and delivery. Personally i wouldnt rush, you will probably be in labor for hours. But dont let me talk you into putting it offand eventually giving birth on your kitchen floor either.
