hay its a little late but my neighbor thought i should go to l&d i dont want to get to worried. I felt wierd all night last night i couldnt sleep and i felt so uncomfortable. I am currently 24wks4dys i woke up had a bowel movement but started to have contractions every 15 mintues my mother calculated them. My stomach was tighening it was really painfull. Now all day i feel a little strange. The contractions arent consistant but i have gotten 2 since my regular day started. Basically i feel the baby move but i dont feel like my stomach feels settled or normal like i did before this all started. Oh and when i would get the contractions i would have to throw up after them. Basically do u think i should run to l&d or call.. or is this normal thanks in advance!! I have a 2 year old so i know what contractions feel like and i know about braxton hicks but these were way painful

I would drink a glass of water and then lay on my left side. If they continued after half an hour I would then call my Doctor, or L&D if it was during off hours, to speak with a Nurse. My Doctor has instructed me to call if I get 4 or more in an hour.
Rush to the hospital NOW. If you're having contractions at 24 weeks, something is wrong. If you get in quickly enough, there may be a way to stop them. Please get up from the computer and get to the hospital as quickly as you can. If possible, you probably want to call an ambulance. Good luck, and I hope the baby is OK.
I would go get checked out immediately. Or at least call for that matter. They might just tell you to come in to get checked. What you are describing doesn't sound "normal" to me..and most of the time you know your body better than anyone. Go or get someone on the phone..NOW! Good luck and congrats!
You need to go in and get checked to make sure you are not dilating. As you know that is what contractions do is make you dilate. It is too early to have the baby.
you may be dehydrated.. if they continue go to labor and delivery..they will give you a shot to stop the contractions and either hook up up to IV or make you drink lots of water..
Call the doctor now.
