37 weeks tomorrow HELP!

This is my first baby and I’ve been cramping ALL DAY like period cramps and sometimes stronger. Also been having to go to the bathroom a lot. Can anyone tell me what this means? Will I go into labor soon or what do the cramps mean?

Yes they feel a little stronger than period cramps but not intolerable yet

Try timing the cramps. Contractions are just period cramps but they are re more extreme . If they become consistent and grow closer like every 10 mins... every five minutes and you have bad back pain then call your ob and go to the hospital. Also make sure your able to talk and breathe through them if you can’t then go to the hospital ASAP !!!

Yea I agree with the other ladies. Try timing them, if they are contractions they will keep coming and get stronger to the point it stops you in your tracks. Try taking a warm shower, drink some ice cold water and laying down on your left side while you time them. Hopefully they stop if not go to labor and delivery.

I don’t feel like my belly gets to tight but it does feel like stronger period cramps but they haven’t gotten closer together just kind of sporadic throughout the day
