Please tell me this is a sign of labor coming soon!

I'm due August 8th and for the past two weeks I've had loose, dark stools, not quite diarrhea. But I was staying regular (one a day). Now today I've literally gone 8-10 times with the same loose dark stools. I'm so tired of being in the bathroom! Anyone else have to go multiple times a day and labor came soon? It seems like Braxton hicks have increased, but are so random.
