hospital?

Ive been feeling weird since yesterday and today ive been really crampy then it turned to contractions. Ive been having these off and on since 27 weeks but they never really hurt and would fade away if i sat down. Well i finally sat down and the contractions keep happenin, so i started timing them and they're every 5 mins about 45-55 seconds long. They hurt but more back pain then anything. My doctor said my placenta is calcifing so theyre not going to stop labor when it happens and told me last week it could be anytime. Im only 35 weeks. My question is when should you go to the hospital? I really dont want to go in there and be stuck in the bed with 20 million nurses but i dont wanna wait too long.

Im about to take a bath now, its always helped with any pains.(:
Ive been timing them almost an hour but they've been happening for about 3 hours. My last 2 labors were ridiculously slow and didn't speed up until they broke my water but I was induced.

How long have you been timing them?

I would hold out as long as you can at home. Take a bath, and relax if you can. My contractions started in thr tub, but didnt really notice till I got out. It really helps with the pain. Blessings dear!!! :-)
