preterm labor

So earlier today I was put on strict bed rest for a week until my next doc appt. I'm currently 1 cm dilated and was still having contractions when I left the hospital but they weren't that bad.

Well now they (my contractions) are starting to get closer together but I'm not sure if I should go back in or not. I had one at 5:06pm, 5:10pm, 5:16pm, 5:25pm, 6:03pm, and the last one was at 6:19pm. Does this seem regular enough again to go back or should I wait it out?

I would say call just in case, but not really regular, since they aren't getting closer together.

You only know how strong they are, If the pain is really strong you should go.

They seem irregular, but I would still keep an eye on them just incase.

They've felt around the same all day. They are really strong all the time. I mean some are worse than others but not any worse than they were this morning when they were 2 minutes apart.

With preterm labor issues you never wait, you go in..

Go in. I really hope they can stop them.

I waited when I had my first because I didn't know any better. I didn't even realize it was contractions. By the time I got there it was too late and I had him at 24 weeks.

Never wait.

I would go in asap u are way to early to just sit there and wait. I was having contractions on and off and at my u/s at 21 weeks i was admitted into the hospital because my cervix was to short and I had to get a cerclarge now im on bed rest till the baby is born.
