HELP ! CONTRACTIONS OR BH??!

Jojo

I am 33 weeks and 5 days. I know intercourse can bring on labor but i was also told unless it causes me pain it is normal and safe. So i had intercourse. Me and my so have been bickering and needed the time to ourselves.

But shortly after i had cramps in my lower belly/pelvic area and slight lower back pain. Then it advanced as the day went on. tightening of my whole belly, lower back pain, pelvic pressure, leaking mucus like crazy i had to wear a pad today, leg cramps/ severe leg pain, and pain while i use the restroom and pain (tmi) in my vagina and butt area.

I have tried so many different laying down positions and standing/sitting positions and my body just wont stop aching and its getting worse as the night goes on. I want to cry. At first it was a dull ache and i could work through it after my (i thought braxton hicks) would end id be fine and able to move just fine but now i cant move. My body hurts too bad.

I did a self cervix exam when it started aching and a few days ago and its soft but its still so far up and back i cant feel my actual cervix to even tell if i am dilated any.
