Im 37 weeks? UPDATE!

So I have been having contractions 2.5-3min apart for the past 3 hours..I really don't want to go in to be sent home. This is my second child. I checked my cervix and its low, 3 fingers open and very thin like the brim of a jar. I want this to be labor!!! I feel like I will get to the hospital and it will stop though....I'm so emotional and I really just want thoughts on if I should go or wait for a bit.. UPDATE: For any of you wondering after I took a hot bath/shower they ended up going away! I'm super sore today and crampy but baby is moving great. I think she may have engaged more! Hoping if she doesn't come by my next appt on Wednesday my doctor will talk induction as I'm measuring way ahead at 41weeks anyhow.
