Braxton Hicks vs. real contractions

For almost three days straight I've been having contractions all day and all night. They aren't painful, just uncomfortable at times and starting to get annoying. I haven't tried timing them. This is my second pregnancy and I'm 30+5 weeks pregnant. Ever once in awhile since about 25 weeks I get crazy sharp vaginal pains, but the contractions are new. Is this normal or something I should go to L&D to check on? My next doctor's appointment is next week.

I've had some discharge, but no blood or anything alarming.

Start timing them to see if there's a pattern. Also have you had any fluid etc come away?
