contractions :-(

Woke up thus morning and for about an hour had some fairly intense contractions. I have medication to relax my uterus and took out immediately after my first one, and it took about an hour for things to settle down, now its about 330 pm and again i'm feeling fairly strong contractions. I took my medicine like prescribed all day, and it was prescribed for cramps but should work the same on settling my uterus from these contractions but it just isn't. I have an apt tomorrow where I will be checked again for dilation, i'm just so worried that all these contractions will lead to preterm labor, i'm only 28Weeks as of tomorrow. Going home to relax with my feet up for a while but I haven't done ANYTHING strenuous today and don't know why this keeps happening:-(

Hey babe.. i think with history of preterm labour you should not wait.. and should visit hospital asap.. it could be possible you are in labour or any thing... take care and let us know how it goes?

I would call my doctor just to make sure they don't want you to go to the hospital to get checked out, I hate calling my doctor for anything (I know it sounds silly) but I def would in this case. oh and def go home and stay off your feet, good luck!
