how frequent one's contractions should be before you a) wake dh and b) ring the delivery suite?

oooh mrsB i would say about 10 mins for DH and 5-6mins for delivery suite so i take it you are contracting then

Might be worth ringing the delivery suite now (if you're contracing now) so they're on alert. Ooooo are you?

Iggly, I am a quick-start labourer - woke up at 2.45am and they were already 7min apart, down to 5min by the time I posted.
DD was very similar - in fact both times I arrived at the hospital at 4am and delivered at 8...
