Are they periodic pains tha tyou can time? You should call your doc or the labor/delivery department at the hospital , I never had them on my own, so I wil be in the same boat, look at what carissa said, she dialated to 6.5 cm and didn;t even kow it... You are 1 day away right? No one would think bad of you for going in to be checked out and it turned out to be false labor or a false alarm, better safe than sorry!!!

Normally they will tell you that real labor pains don't go away no matter what you do, the b/h ones will normally stop if you switch from what you are doing to something else, i.E: if you are standing and you sit they would probably go a way or vice versa. And remember, you could always go 2 whole more weeks (sorry) this is your first then, right? They always say there is more of a chance of going over with the first since they are only gvin you an estimate anyway, ya know... But I wish you the best of luck and that the baby comes soon, I start my 39th week tomorrow and go to my appt today, I usually make it to 39 wk appt and not much farther

Get to the doc, or call him back and get him to get you to the doc... Are you gonna have to drive yourself? Since it isn;t just you water that broke I don't think you should, but I drove home first from the doc because I wasn;t having contractions..... I think it is time!!!! :d Surprised

Don't be scard, but I think you should call your bf mom and then call the dr while you are waiting on her that way oif the doc says yeah go to the hospital, she will already be on her way, and if not she can comfort you a little because it doesn;t sound to me like you have false alarmed anyone b4, she shouldn;t get mad, right?
