Baby soon?

Ashley

I’m 36 weeks and have been having Braxton Hicks since 30 weeks. They are every day with or without activity but not consistent. Also, I don’t have much of an appetite and I seem to have to go #2 a lot these last couple of days. I never went into labor on my own with my other kids and I usually have hemorrhoids and can’t go to the bathroom at this stage of pregnancy. Praying for some dilation when I go to the doctor Thursday. Could the poop thing be a sign that my body is getting ready?
