37 weeks with period like cramps?

Brionna
I'm 37w 3d and have had period like cramps keep me up/wake me up throughout the night on two occasions. Last time, they lasted through the rest of the day and my doctor admitted me to the L&D floor just to be sure but it was a false alarm. Now, they're happening again just as bad.
Has anyone else had period like cramps this far along? What did it end up meaning for you?
