Contraction v Braxton hick

Simone

I am 33wks+6days n my stomach is hurting so bad I can't even describe it. I ate breakfast and started cooking my boyfriend some food and that's when it started. It's at the top of my stomach and it comes for a while then stops then comes back full force and stop. The baby is still high up are these contractions that I am feeling or Braxton hicks?
