the only thing I am worried about is if they are real contractions or not. it's like a sharp pain either on my tummy or my pelvic area. I've had them like 3 or 4 times an hour for about 4 hours now.

Drink some water. Remain calm. See if moving into other positions relieves some of the discomfort. If things get worse call your labor and delivery department at your local hospital and ask if they can assist you, or just go in. For now, just try to relax.
