Prodromal labor

How do I deal with this.... Last night before bed I started getting lightly crampy. Just little twinges. They progressively got stronger. I have had regular contractions for an hour a week ago that stopped so I shrugged it off. I woke up at 1am to a horrible contraction. I ended up being up all night having ridiculous contractions. Waking me up from my sleep, making me sick to my stomach, type of contractions. It was one of the most excruciating and exhausting things ever. I figured if it got bad enough I would go in. However they weren't very regular, they were spaced out and I was too exhausted from dealing with them to stay awake to time them. This morning I woke up to just slight crampy was and a horrid back ache. I was having small contractions in my NST and my nurse said it was probably just prodromal labor. However now I'm horrified to go to bed tonight. It felt like 12 hours straight of Unmedicated labor which I'm too big of a pansy to deal with. Thinking of the pain and stress of thinking I was in labor and dealing with intense labor contractions is making me cringe and sick to my stomach. How am I supposed to deal with this!! Nothing was alleviating my pain. I'm only 37 weeks and the thought of going through this for two weeks until my induction makes me want to cry.
