Lol. They did that to my sister to. Her 3rd baby. She had me stay at her house to watch her kids. She called the hospital like 4 times b4 in insure they wouldn't send her home bc its an hour drive one way! She got in bout 9pm wasn't progressing by 10. So they sent her home gave her something to help her sleep. By 6 am she was in some major labor. She was so mad bc the docs excuse was he didn't know she lived that far!

I feel for you, but it sounds like you will be back very soon.  The hospital did that to me one time and I was so mad.  It was my 3rd baby and 2 days before my due date.  I knew I was in labor.  The doctor on call just didn't want to deal with it honestly because it was a Sunday.  Of course I labored at home all day, medication free, and my husband finally insisted on taking me back to the hospital that night because I thought I was going to die!!!  By the time I got there, I was at an 8.  I was like, "See...I told you I was in labor."  I was not a happy camper!  Good luck!!!

id go to the hospital. when i was in labour with my daughter i woke up at 5am with contractions that were not painful but quite regular. This was at 5.30am. By 7 am they were getting painful and about 10 mins apart i wasnt sure if it was real or false labour. *am i was in a lot of pain and contractions were only 1 min apart so we went to the hospital. I was there for only 10 mins and she was born. My firt baby i was induced so had no idea what to expect second time and my waters didnt break until i pushed her out lol. better to be safe and go get checked. hope all goes well for you. x

When I went into labor with both of my boys, my contractions were not painful until the midwife broke my water around 7-8cm. The only way I could really tell it was real labor was the consistency of the contractions and the pressure. I know everyone is different, but if they remain very consistent, I would think you are in labor or very very close!!  I would wait another hour and if the timing stays regular or gets closer, I would go in. Can't hurt to be checked!!! I hope this is it for you this time!
