Lay down on your side, drink a glass of water and watch your time. You may be having contractions or they may be Braxton Hicks. Start timing, if things seem to be getting stronger, or they are consistent for longer than 30 minutes head to the hospital. Don't feel bad about going in for a false alarm. With my daughter I had 3. My water broke with my son so he was obvious.

If you are in back labor you will feel sharp pains in your back. Accompanied most likely with cramps.
Or
Your baby may be pressing your sciatic nerve. Another clue you are having sciatic nerve pain is that you may also have pain in your right (I think, but may be left) leg.

You should contact your physician though, just to be sure.

They will become unbearable!

You can deliver anywhere from 37-42 weeks.

Good luck!
