I agree that these sound a bit more like BH rather than labor contractions. They do not seem to be consistent either. I would try drinking a ton of water and relax for a while to see if that changes anything. If they increase, or something feels "off" call your OB!
Also, I do have to disagree with @ashdawn24 on the 4-5 minute timing. You need to get this direction from your OB. When you need to call depends on if you are high risk, have any medical conditions that need to be monitored, if baby needs extra monitoring, and / or if you need to be on any medications during labor.
At my OB's practice, a woman with none of the above is directed to call when contractions are a minute long, consistently 3-5 minutes apart for an hour. HOWEVER, if a woman has any of the above, then when they are 1 minute long, consistently 7-10 minutes apart for an hour, she needs to call.
