Help! Is this Pre- Labor?

Cramping?

I am 6 days from my due date. The past two nights Ive woken up to period like cramps in my lower abdomen. I’ve been up a few hours and moving around today but it hasn’t dulled much and Im having a low back pain. Currently have Braxton hicks contractions (tightening) but they are not painful.

I’ve read some ladies’ stories on here that they experienced labor shortly after something similar - others it was more painful or debilitating.

What do you think? Has anyone had these aches and pains in late pregnancy as a result of sleeping and baby pressure rather than labor?

Currently packing my hospital bag! 😂

UPDATE!!! Water just broke, we are having a baby. Total 10 hours of cramping before it happened.
