TMI- Increased bowel movements and gas????

Anna
I'm 37 wks and I was having close contractions for 8 hrs and work at the hospital I'm delivering at so I decided to get checked and put on the monitor this morning. I was 3cm with regular contractions but not strong enough for them to keep me.
Since then, I have had MULTIPLE bowel movements and gas. Is this a sign of labor or did I just coincidentally eat something bad??? 😂
