What did you test positive for? What was the test? I have had 5 preterm labors since I was 15weeks and I'm 24weeks now. This worries me....

Agree with pp. I'd call them just to get a medical opinion since you're already at risk.

You can call your ob or labor and delivery tell them what your feeling and that you are at risk for pre term labor and they can tell you to go in or not.

Forget tomorrow, time them now. Contractions can start off feeling like cramps. I'd be concerned.
