When my older Ford truck started doing that, and continued to do it after I replaced the trans fluid and filter, it was in the transmission shop for a full tranny rebuild within a couple of weeks. This problem is one of those that can get much worse, very quickly, so suggest to not simply ignore it, else it leaves you stranded.
