I'm 36 and 3 and I'm having contractions constantly. My ob says it's just my uterus getting ready.  I've not yet thinned or dilated.

Maybe they are just not strong enough.   My poor sister had contractions for almost a week about 7minutes apart.  Hers didn't get stronger enough until the day she delivered my niece.
