34+5 period pains? Normal?

This is my second baby. First was born last year. But I didnt have any pains, BH or anything until the day of my actual labor so I am a bit lost.

Been having some period pains, the ones that come with the dull lower back ache, most days for a week now.

I told my OB on Tuesday and he said just rest and take the magnesium. But it doesnt really make a difference.

The pain isnt constant. It comes and goes but when it comes it's like a couple of hours.
I haven't had any contractions or bleeding. I do have excessive discharge but I think that's normal.

I know that baby is head down, could it be the pressure onto the cervix?

I just don't know if it's normal or if something is off.

What would you do? I don't want to be dramstic and go to L&D tomorrow but I also feel like my OB doesn't take me seriously!

Sounds within normal range of nothing really happening.

Are you constipated?
