No ER trips, please!

The last couple of days I have had some serious troubles breathing. I'm not sick, my blood tests all came back normal,  I don't have the heavy feeling on my chest, I'm not up doing anything (every time has started while I was sitting), and he isn't up in my ribs. My doctor doesn't even know what is going on. She is concerned, though. I start getting contractions during these little episodes (a few hours long). Connor is moving around like normal and his heart rate is nice and strong. Since she isn't sure, she wants me to go to the ER (labor and delivery) the next time it happens. Good idea! Too bad it would take about an hour to get there. Josh would have to take the 15 minute trip from work, pick up Zoey and me. Then the 30 minute trip to the hospital.

What if we are half way to the hospital and I start breathing normal again? I know it can be very dangerous for both Connor and me, but I don't want to pull Josh out of work for no reason. I can't drive myself. Even if I had my license (which I should have here in a month when I take my test), not a good idea to drive when I'm about to pass out from lack of oxygen. Calling for an ambulance is silly, because... well come on... it's not an ambulance worthy situation unless I start turning blue and I'm here a lone with Zoey. So, what is a girl to do? Should I get Josh to take me to the hospital anyway with a chance of feeling better on the way there? What do you guys think I should do? I really want to know, because I'm at a loss, haha.

Sorry for the short post. Tomorrow, I'll give some updates.
