how many braxton hicks in an hour is too many?!

They were around 15 minutes between each one. Lasting for about 30 seconds. (I was up cleaning and washing dishes) now that ive been sitting down they are more irregular and anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes between each one. he ones that were coming every 15 were painful but the irregular ones are just uncomfortable now.

I hate to drive 2 hours to the hospital just to be told its braxton hicks especially since they are not regular anymore.

I am almost 33 weeks baby is measuring at almost 35 weeks!

I figured they were braxton hicks because they didnt continue. But ive heard if u have so many (idr how many) you are supposed to go in.. when i started dilating on my own with my first at 36 weeks i was having irregular contractions as well but i went from 3 to 10 in 45 minutes which is y i was asking how many was too many. :)

Think it was just braxton hicks.. your still early and real contractions don't ease up they become more frequent
