40 weeks + 5

Hello, currently 5 days overdue and Ive been having quite consistent Lower abdominal cramps since 1am (every at least 15mins) Called up nuh but they say to just monitor since I mentioned pain level was about 3/4. It’s 3pm now and the contractions are still gg on for about 1min everytime, frequency between 10-15 mins and they’re abit more painful then the morning ones. However during my last checkup 3 days ago I was still 0cm dilated. Dr did do a “massage” to the cervix. Shld I be gg to the hospital soon?anyone has had similar experience? #firsttimemom #pleasehelp

I would head off to NUH without hesitation due to the constant pain. Could be mild contractions/braxton hicks. Request to be on observation, monitor baby heartbeat, any signs of contractions, checking cervix and level of amniotic fluid. Hopefully they will listen to you.
