37 weeks today

Im 37 weeks today with my first baby. My last appointment i was 1 cm dilated and 70% effaced. This past week i havent been having near as many contraction or cramps. Just a few every once in a great while. I really thought labor was getting close bc before my last appointment, leading up to it i was having a lot of contractions and some painful, lots of pressure and lots of cramps. It seems to have "quieted" down since then. Could this mean labor is far off now?
