Contractions

Hello ladies! I lost my mucus plug today in the morning, went to the hospital and they told me to wait until I have 3 contractions in 10 minutes. I started having them one hour ago, I called to the hospital and they told me to wait until I have more contractions and to take paracetamol, which I did it already. The contractions are getting stronger and frequent. Should I go to the hospital? I’m attaching a picture of my actual contractions

Generally they like the contractions to have been happening 3 every 10 minutes each lasting around 45-60 seconds for 2 hours before going in, so I’d give it another 30 minutes or so then think about heading in.

Mainly because you tend to progress quicker in your own comfortable home environment. Good luck Mumma, you’re going to get to meet your little one soon! 🥰

I’m a first time mum, I was having contractions every 2-4 minutes when I went in - got assessed and was 9cm! Trust your gut and go in when it feels right!
