Hi, thanks for writing..
Since this is your 5th C section, it would be advisable to consult your doctor.. If it is strong contractions it is likely to weaken the previous scar and can cause rupture uterus.. So based on your doctor's impression may be you will have to undergo C section a bit earlier.. If it is mild pain with no signs of scar dehiscence, you can continue your pregnancy till 37 weeks.. Hope I have answered your query.. Good day
