If you are 37 weeks and have contractions every 3 minutes, you should head to the hospital
The only way you'll ever know it's "real" labor is when the head pops out
If I were you, I'd go in

Id go in... I never lost my mucus plug or had bloody show after my first baby. And the way u are describing the contractions it sounds like real oabor. Id head to the ER and get checked anyways.
