when to go to er

[frstbby]

This is our first child, im 28 weeks and braxton hicks woke me up this morning. I can actually half way time them. They do not hurt at all, and i have an appointment tomorrow. Should i go to the hospital anyway just to be sure?

Most likely the contractions mean nothing serious. They will do a non-steress test on the baby and probably check your cervix and that's all. Call your doctor and see what they recommend before driving to the hospital anytime you feel there's a problem.

I dont hurt at all, just thought it was odd that it woke me up out of a dead sleep! Lol. I think i may end up waiting. ..thabkqs all

I had them around that time and I went to the er the only thing they'll do is hook you up to monitor the baby, but everyone is different I felt I needed to go so I did it is up to you. If you feel you need to go or would feel better just making sure then go! :) Hope all is well!:)

Just wait for your appointment unless you're in unbearable pain.
