If you have Cramps and they don't go away when you lay down or sit, then that is a good sign you are in Labor.
Labor Signs Symptoms
Lightening
Lightening occurs when the baby drops or settles lower into your pelvis.
Often you will suddenly find you are less short of breath because your lungs have more room to expand.
Pressure will increase in your pelvis though, and you may need to urinate more often.
Lightening usually occurs several weeks prior to your first delivery. With following births, it may happen just hours before delivery.
Bloody show
As the cervix thins and starts to dilate (open) in preparation for delivery, small capillaries burst and cause a pink or brown vaginal discharge.
The mucous plug, which has sealed the cervix throughout the pregnancy, dislodges. It will look like pink or blood-tinged stringy mucus.
Bloody show can occur anywhere from hours to several weeks before delivery.
If the discharge is bright red, or more than an ounce is present, a problem with the placenta may have occurred, and you should contact your health care provider immediately.
Nesting instinct
Some women notice a burst of energy a few days prior to going into labor.
This is nature's way of helping ensure everything is ready when the new baby arrives.
Nausea and diarrhea
Hormonal changes early in labor can cause an upset stomach, cramps, and diarrhea.
Increased Braxton Hicks contractions
These practice contractions, which have been present during the last several months of pregnancy, may become more frequent, intense, and even painful.

Is this your first pregnancy? Do the cramps feel like cramps or like slow building pressure that goes away slowly? It's kinda like someone squeezing your arm and it takes a second for them to get to full strength...kinda like that?? or regular? Could be the start of contractions, not sure tho.

It sounds like it could very likely be labor. If it gets stronger when you relax, rather than weaker, my books all said that is a sign that it is labor and not braxton hicks. Your doctor can tell for sure. I hope you have a happy, healthy baby!

You could be starting labor (or false labor). Just wait until your doctor's appointment and tell her/him EXACTLY what you wrote.
If you have the urge to push or your water breaks before your appointment, call your doctor. It still could be hours before you actually pop that little puppy out of you, if you are in labor.

Sounds like you're probably going into labor, i wouldn't doubt it if you're 39 weeks, could be braxton hicks, if it starts to hurt it's most likely labor :)

David Seville - Witch Doctor Alvin and the Chipmunks did it. Sha Na Na did it. Cartoons did it (This variation was once in DDR). DEVO did it (This variation was once in The Rugrats Movie)
