Well it has to start sometime..... Some women feel contractions like cramps all day until they get stronger and closer together, other women ( like me) wake up in the middle of the night and their water breaks or you feel strong contractions that are really close together and getting stronger!!! Mine stated at 4 minutes apart and pretty strong and only increased from there until I was in so much pain I was puking less than 3 hours later!!! Just track them and if they are really painful (stronger than really bad period cramps) and they are consistent then you are probably in labor!  Brackston hicks can be consistent but don't get that painful. ... Try drinking lots of water to make sure you're not dehydrated and having false labor because if that sit's really common) if they still get worse then call your dr. Cuz you're in labor!!! ;-)
