contractions all day

all night long i had contractions but i was able to sleep through them ... continued throughout the morning but was still able to sleep through them only one had woke me up and i decided to get up use the bathroom clean the house etc. haven’t went back to sleep but have been having contractions lasting a minute plus a little more that have been anywhere from 4-10 minutes apart but they’re getting worse and stronger. noticed i lost a bit of my mucous plug as well . nothingbloody though. also my pains have been in my lower abdomin back and hips a few putting me in crying pain not sure what is going on but really don’t want to go to the hospital again (as i’ve went once before) just to be stuck there for hours and wanting to go home ... i’m 37 week 5 days btw
