Are these contractions?

Sarah • My little babe is due June26, 💕🎀
I'm 35 weeks and 2cm dilated. I have always have a lot of BH (just the tightness) a couple times a day. But at my 35 week appt my NST showed "contractions" so she checked me and said I'm 2cm. And to come back 3 days later to get checked again. I constantly through out the day since then have gotten tight "contractions"? My whole belly gets tight and uncomfortable and then sometimes it hurts and the pain follows down into my vagina. I can hardly walk right. 
BH or are these contractions?! Or is this normal for 3rd trimester?! HELPPP 😩
