Period cramps - is this the start of things?

FTM here so I have no idea what to expect but I'm 37+5 and have woken up this morning with period type cramping.

I thought it might have been BH but it's more constant than coming and going, and it's not particularly painful but I'm definitely aware of it. My hips and the tops of my legs were aching yesterday and my back was pretty sore (not unusual for me though) and my bowel movements for the past week or so have been very regular (sorry tmi) iyswim.

Is this my body gearing up? I'm obviously not expecting labour to be imminent but I just wondered what some of your early early symptoms were? 😶

Yep, period like pains, slowly getting worse

Not necessarily. I've been having them off and on for about a week. I'm 37+6, no sign of the little bugger budging.
