Ask your doctor: You're going to need to ask your midwife or doctor about this one. If you are having contractions that are changing your cervix, then you definitely need to be worried. If you are not having contractions and your cervix is not changing, then you are ok. Don't take any chances though. You really don't want to have a premature baby.

Possibly: The time to onset and during of labor is often shorter the second or third times around. Do speak to your ob/gyn for guidance.
