go to hospital?

Im 38+1 weeks pregnant Today. A few days ago I went to the hospital & they said I was having contractions but my cervix is long and hard so they sent me home and told me to walk and stuff. Now I'm having horrible back pain & cramping. I also have a huge headache! I can barely walk .... I just don't feel right. Is this a good enough reason to go back to the hospital? I don't want to make a long trip for nothing

also you could try calling the hospital and speak to a nurse and ask her what you should do.

No normally they won't admit you unless your water has broke. or your contractions are 5 minutes apart. or that's how the hospital works here. but good luck, hun.
