Back labor pains. i think?

I'm 37 weeks and 1 day. Last couple of days I have been having a lot of discharge and Thursday night last week I had a lot of mucus and just a little bit of light pink blood in it. But since last night I have been having badd back pain lower and feels like I need poop I already did this morning but still haves the feeling and then I have been having random contractions all day. What I'm trying to ask is do yuu  think the back pain sounds like labor or just back pain?? I don't remember this during my first pregnancy and I lost my mucus plug just hours before giving birth. Soo this is different for me!

I had back labor with my first pregnancies.  It isnt any fun. I just thought it was a back ache but with it being consistent I went to the hospital. Good luck.
