confused

At 6am, I was having what I think are real contractions. Ive had braxton hicks, but these were different. They start mainly in my lower back & hurt bad. At 9am, my husband took me to the hospital. I was there for 4 hours & my contractions were irregular that they sent me home. The nurse told me I could be having the streak of blood & contractions from having sex last night. I'm so confused. We have sex every night to try to bring on labor & I've never felt like this after it. These contractions continue & have my body (mainly lower back) in a lot of pain. Almost like I did a crazy ab workout. Has anyone experienced these kinds of contractions? Suggestions? Idk what to do. I'm 39+6

Just wait until thdy become regular. Try to relax your body to allow it to bring on labor. I had irregular contractions at first and.i walked around the mall and did some shopping. When I got home my contractions were every 20mins and contiued to get closer together from there. I had back labor I felt.a lot of pressure and cramping in my back along with tightening in my abdomen. It sounds ljke the beginning of labor just try to get it to pick up. Walk walk walk
