Braxton Hicks??

So today I had a check with the midwife (37+3) and baby was side to back and not engaged. This evening there was a mad hour of pain and movement and uncomfortableness and I’m now wondering am I having Braxton Hicks??

I’m having tightenings which vary from the top of my bump to the bottom of it or even my lower back. No pattern at all and the baby is moving like mad and I’m getting a lot of ‘kicks’ down there too.

Any tips or advice as to what it is or even how to sleep through ( I also have a 21 month old so will be shattered tomorrow)

I had an hour of mad movement a few days before i went into labour and kicks down there. Baby was 31 weeks exactly when went into labour so you never know! Good luck x
