| Till they get closer together. I was told not to go to hospital till they were about a min apart and had been that way for about an hour or so.
Might be worth giving hospital a ring soon just to let them know where you are at at the moment and ask when they want you to come in.
My contractions went straight from every 5mins to every 1min so i called up and as they were quiet they said I might as well go in, and turns out i was 6cm dilated already.
Good luck so excited for you!! xx |

| Are you really meant to wait until they are 1 min apart??? I was induced so didnt have the whole waiting at home to go through but honestly if mine were 5 min apart this time Id be straight up there begging for drugs |
