I'm having contractions that are 2-5 minutes apart I'm 36weeks they are pretty strong but not painful at all. I have no idea if I'm dialated or effaced. Should go to labor and delivery or will I be ok? I really dont want to go and be sent home the hospital is 20min away and I have to get on the highway to get there I have no car so I have get ride.

All doctors are different but my ob told me unless I have 6 or more contractions an hour they won't do anything. My braxton hicks felt like real contractions which terrifies me for real ones
