I forgot what contractions feel like!

Nikki • 25. Mom of two beauties.
I'm 36 w 2d I believe I'm having Braxton hicks but I've had about 9 of them in an hour. I feel the baby moving and
 moving downward while the "contraction" is going on. When the tightening releases the baby is no longer pushing down. Are these contractions? I forget what labor feels like!
