Please help!

I'm 37+1 and I've been having period cramps all day and I have this feeling that I have to go to the bathroom and I got there and nothing happens on and off all day for the past 2 days, last time I went was last night(tmi sorry) so I am pretty sure I don't have to go. Is this a sign she's coming? Or is this totally normal? Up to this point I haven't been able to tell if I'm having any contractions, I know I've had some because at the hospital it was registering both times but I can't feel them.
