Sever lower back pain

Jess
I've been having severe lower back for 7 hours. Very few contractions that I can feel in the front but my ligaments are in so much pain I can't raise my legs to my stomach. I have pressure on my pelvic bone and when I walk I feel doubled over. It goes from my lower back to my hip bones and feels like extreme arthritis. I called to see if I should come in and really didn't get a response. I asked if my doc thought I was in labor and she said I could come in for an epidural...? Not sure how to take that. I asked if she thought it could be a uti and she said usually back pain is higher (which I know From experience) but I heard the symptoms can be different when pregnant. I'm due tomorrow and she did a cervix check yesterday that was extremely painful, I was only 1 centimeter. Is this normal? Do you think it's labor pains? TIA
