Severe contractions but not dilated.

Hi! I’m currently 40 weeks pregnant. I’ve been having really bad contractions for the past 4 days, which gets worse at night. However, during my last gynae check, I was 0cm dilated. Has anyone experienced something similar? And when do you know when to admit yourself to the hospital? Thanks in advance!

I'm 39 weeks. Also not dilated and not having contractions. I'll be induced by 40 weeks if I'm still not in labour. I follow up with KKH, I was told if by 40 weeks, I'm not in labour I'll be induced. Maybe you should chrck with your gynae.

Thank you! I’ve managed to deliver safely a day after posting this! From what I know, KKH can wait up to 40W5D before they choose to induce you, provided you have a low-risk pregnancy. Don’t worry ok, you still have time! ☺️
