Hi dear u can download the contractions app. I had the same thing as u and download the app. They will calculate and advise you should u need to go to hospital. The app did asked me to go but as I was not even 37 wks and my pain score is kinda tolerable, i delayed for 10 hrs and when i arrived the hospital i was already 4 cm into labour.
