BH getting more uncomfortable

Jessica

I’m almost 38 weeks and have been having Braxton Hicks for months now but they’ve been getting more uncomfortable as I get closer to my due date. Today I just feel like crap, everything hurts and I just don’t want to move at all. The last couple BH I’ve had even felt crampy in my back. I’m wondering if they could be turning into real contractions even though they aren’t close together. I have an appointment on Thursday so maybe I’ll find out that these have been getting me dilated some. First baby was induced at 35 weeks because of high bp so I’ve never been this pregnant or gone into labor naturally. I feel like a first time mom a little bit.
