Update/ very close

I just had a check-up with the Dr (I'm 37 weeks, 5 days) I was having some pretty strong (not pain full, but uncomfortable) contractions yesterday that were only 5 minutes apart for 2 hours, I took a shower and they still did'nt go away, I was getting ready to go into the hospital when I started throwing up. well the throwing up slowed things down, I am still having fairly strong contractions about every 20 mintues or so. well they check me again today (I was almost 4cm last week) I am now 5cm dialated they told me if i go into the hospital the hospital will keep me at this point even if i am not in active labor since a 5cm it could go really quickly, they want me to keep a very close eye on contractions! DH gets of at 4pm I think I will either do a lot of walking tonight or in the mornign then go into the hospital either way I should have my baby soon! I'm so ready for her to come after being Dialated for sooo long!
