Prodromal labor?

Caitlin
39 weeks today and have had contractions since Saturday night. They are usually about 7 min apart and last from mid evening until early morning, but then I only get a few throughout the day. Possible prodromal labor? I have an appt this afternoon to see if I'm dilates at all. I'm just tired of not sleeping at night because the contractions are more painful when I lay down. Baby girl can't get here soon enough!
