contractions

Lucy
I am 37 weeks, 4 days and every night that goes by in the last few days I have been having increasingly powerful contractions which have been ranging between 1 and 2 hrs just at night time (irregular so pre labour pains). I wonder if there is a correlation between Pre labour pain times and going into labour. If we, women, have a somewhat routine with our bodies doing this then is there a trend? Or am I really overanalysing this? 😂
