33+1 & contractions.

i've had a strong feeling that my baby girl is gonna be here soonish, i've been having contractions that happen 4-5+ times under a hour and they last for about a good 2 minutes or more, having extreme back pain with them too.. but other days i have NO contractions or they just happen once or twice through the day.. what could this mean? is it just braxton hicks or something more?
