real or false labor

in May 2011 Moms
I have been having cramps all day up till about 3 or 4 and then they become distinct pains in my stomach and lower back.  oh and also some pressure in the booty area.  From that point on they have been pretty consistent, distinct, and now quite painful but still bearable.  they are coming between 5 and 8 mins apart.  I'm not sure if this is real contractions and something i need to call L&D about or if I just need to tough it out and see if they get stronger.  Any advice?

    I would go ahead and go to L&D.  My contractions all happened IN the hospital, but they went from 6-8 minutes apart, to 2-3, to having a baby in no time at all!  The worst they can do is send you home, but if I had been laboring at home and tried to wait for them to consistently be 5 minutes apart I'd have had a baby in the car. :)
