should i worry?

I have no idea what i'm doing up right now, but i had woken up at 1:30 AM & got a dull pain/uncomfortness in my lower back. Anyways my stomach started hardening and tightening very frequently, I decided to time them. So far i've got them about 5 mins apart but lasting from 30 seconds to almost a min. My water hasn't broke from what i know, right now i'm drinking water to single out that that my stomach is hardening & tightening maybe because i'm dehydrated but so far no change. Should i be worrying? what should i do?

Worry? No.

But give birth, yes.

Call the on call doctor at your OB and let them know, and get your bags ready for the hospital.

Yep sounds like your in labor   Your water doesnt always break. Out of all 4 of mine my waters broke once. Make sure you have everything in order and head to the hospital

PS if your hungry eat something now because once you get to the hospital you wont be able to eat

How long have you been timing them?

the first one i timed was at 2:10..

Quoting Cynthia S Romero:" the first one i timed was at 2:10.."

That didn't help. Did you time them for an hour, thirty minutes, how long?
