Contractions in the hips

Chiffon

I'm 33 1/2 weeks due September 1st but because of the preeclampsia my doctor has bumped my date up to August 12th. So the last week or so I've noticed that when I've have contractions it's been in my hips, lower back and bottom... This is my third kiddo and this is totally different. My 1st pregnancy my water broke with no contractions, my 2nd pregnancy I had contractions but my water didn't break. I'm confused because I've never dealt with this, have anyone else experience this or am I crazy? If it's truly contractions I feel like I'm due anyday now because they're close together and it goes on non-stop. I've asked my doctor about it but she hasn't really gave me an answer, but she did set me up with an appointment next week
