Is it normal

Vanessa

Since I woke up in the morning I’ve been having really bad lower back pain I thought maybe because I slept on one side more than the other but it’s like in the middle and I’ve been having some menstrual cramps they hurt but not like real contractions is it normal or should I start timing them I mean they come and go but been having them the whole day since I woke up I’m 38 weeks and five days i’m about to Take a hot shower to see if it goes away I been laying on my left side and been trying to do the least of moving and they still come and my back is killing me so hard to get comfortable!
