Due Date

I had a appointment with my nurse practitioner on my due date- April 5th. She told me that she didn't think it would be too long before I went into labor but said that the baby is doing good and seems to be around 7 pounds. On the way home I started to feel contractions. Around eight at night I called labor and delivery and told them they were 6 to 10 minutes apart and they told me to go to sleep. So I woke around eleven and they were five minutes apart and so we started to get ready to head to the hospital.
