Ftm,question about contractions

Veronica • George Alek Jr 4/08/17💙 Layla Jae 8/16/2018💜 Currently pregnant due in November
How will I know it's the real deal. He's moving a lot right now,I'm cramping a lot in the middle area when he use to just be moving on my sides. I know the other symptoms,water breaking,bloody show,etc...but how intense will the real contractions be?im asking because I'm like 45 minutes away from the hospital if something happens lol
