Should I take my wife to the hospital?

My wife is 36 weeks pregnant and 6 days. She keeps saying she's too early to be give birth but she's having contracts about 45-55 seconds long and her contracts are about 6-7 minutes about. She says the baby needs to stay in for a couple more weeks so she doesn't want to go but I think she should. I've been timing them for her and they seem to be hurting so much she can barely talk.

Update: Her water broke! We're having a baby!!!!
