Start of Labor?

N

First time mom here - I’ve been having pretty strong BH contractions for about a week now. I haven’t really been paying much attention to them, but I’ve had a lot of them throughout the day today accompanied by very strong/sharp fetal movement. This afternoon and evening my hips have felt very achey and wide, and I’ve been getting jolts of pain in my cervix that definitely demand my attention. My midwife advised against timing contractions in early labor, and I’ve been really busy thinking about work, so I haven’t been paying too much attention to see if there’s a pattern or anything. Does this sound like the beginning of labor? 37 weeks today.
