Braxton Hicks every night

Currently 37+5 and have been getting Braxton Hicks every night for the last 3 nights. They seem to be getting stronger last night it felt like period cramps. Has anyone else experienced it like this? Was it a sign labour was soon.
Had my DD at 38+5 but didn't feel any BH last time at all.

Following as I'm feeling the same thing. 37 weeks today. Didn't have with my first two.

Ya had this for a week until my waters broke slightly. Gave birth at 36+6.

I'm 39 weeks and have had Braxton Hicks and cramping for the past 2 weeks, mostly at night. Midwifes all say it's normal and a sign of things "moving in the right direction"!

I wouldn't read into it too much

I’ve had BH from 20 weeks before. Hopefully it’s a sign for you that you aren’t waiting much longer.
