I'm having regular painless real contractions... They don't tell you about these because they don't want women to sit at home and be in active labor and not know it. Call your doctor, let them monitor you etc check you... Mine sent me home and I'm staying home until they get murder me painful or my water breaks... That being said I am minutes from the hospital and have already gone in three times at my doctors request to be monitored and don't plan on going bag until it's time!!!

Braxton hicks are irregular and have no pattern. Time your contractions out if there is a pattern, let your midwife know. They don't have to be painful, I didn't feel mine the only reason I knew I was having them is because I was hooked up to a monitor.
