Oh wow thank you guys! That helps me so much. When that nurse told me my contractions were 5 minutes apart I panicked so badly lol! All I could think about was everything I've read says 5 mins apart is when you head to L&D. They failed to mention these little ones could happen that often and not be labor. I hope they calm down. I will drink tons of water and hold really still :)
I've had something similar since 28 weeks. I'm now 39 almost 40. My contractions have been frequent and sometimes relentless. Consistent at times and other times not. Didn't matter what position I was in, or how much water I drank. I am still 0 cm. Lol! I was just as concerned as you are at that stage but they don't seem to have done anything to speed up my labor. So you might be just fine.
With both of my kids... #1 born on due date, #2 five days early... I had contractions frequently for hours at a time but they would stop... Once they turn into contractions that are doing something you will know... There is no mistaking it... Good luck! Lay down with cold water and relax!
Im sorry... 36 weeks! lol
