From about 9:30pm last night I had period like cramps that I wouldn’t say were consistent but they definitely were coming and going through the night because they kept waking me up. Not severely painful, just mild but noticeably uncomfortable and made me feel like I needed to poop. This morning they are still there and I did manage to poop which relieved it slightly but they’re back every 10ish minutes or so, accompanied by a dull ache in my lower back.
I did go to a gym class last night so not sure if the lower back pain is related to that or not.
Would I be silly to call triage? I’m 36+1, FTM, not sure if this is just Brixton Hicks or my body preparing etc. it seems that pre 37 weeks advice is to maybe call triage?

Personally I would call triage .. it’s best to be safe preterm . To me it doesn’t sound like contractions but always worth getting checked
