Earlier Labor ? 🤔

I'm 37 weeks + 4 Days , I stared having contractions on Tuesday saw my doctor Thursday he said my cervix was closed but soft yasterday I had contractions I was staring to get worry bc they had been lasting for a long but I went to the hospital they told me my cervix was still close but soft and they sent home I still have them but the pains are coming stronger 😓 , who has been thru this and gave birth before there due date ?
