Just had a whoppingly painful, Irritable Uterus related contraction. Anyone else suffer with IU

I had them with my first DS and ended up in hospital with them around 23-25 weeks. They got bad enough that I was treated for possible preterm labour which was prevented with medication and rest. With my DD I had IU again but with zero pain and only when I desperately needed to wee etc.

Now I have it really bad again with my current pregnancy, weirdly enough another DS. Laying down at the moment and just had a hugely painful (period pain like) contraction and my womb felt harder than it has with the last ones. I've not had one anywhere near as painful since and they aren't regular, but I am still in pain from the last one.

Does anyone have any advice? I don't want to end up in hospital again if they are going to basically say "it's IU, take some paracetamol" and turn me away. :(
