How many weeks?: Unfortunately, I don't know how many weeks gestation you are, this definitely changes how we will consider your contractions! IF you are at term, 37 plus weeks, AND this is a healthy pregnancy, AND your physician has said let's watch you at home, AND your water is intact, AND you are feeling adequate movement of the baby, hang in there! Call your OB for concerns!
