SHould I go to hosp?

I have been having alot of tightness in my stomach. At first I thought they were braxton hicks, but my stomach has been tight non-stop, it hurts when I walk and I feel a small pain. THe baby moves around like crazy so I know she is ok, but should I go to the hosp or call my dr?

Wow! I'm glad you're ok. Did they mention anything about going on bed rest?

I did call and they told me to go right to labor and delivery. I was scared to death. I was having small contractions every 5 minutes. They gave me two bags of an IV, after having me hooked to the fetal monitors for 4 hrs. They did an internal and tested me for pre-term labor and the test came back negative, so they sent me on my way. I am ok now. not contracting as much but still having them here and there. But they are just the braxton hicks. Anyway, thanks for all the reply's. I was scared to death an thought this baby was coming on Friday..lol

I agree - call your Dr.  I'm sure they would want to evaluate you - you know, just to be safe.   Let us know what they tell you!

This happens to me when I'm dehydrated, or if I don't relax enough, I'd just try drinking a lot and lay on your left side for a while, but call your doctor too.
