is d-day close?

Last week I had strong contractions for two hours (they were painful, and hubby could see my stomach tightening), but after a warm bath, they eventually faded. I had preterm contractions at 22 weeks as well, which they treated with medication. But for the past few days, I've been getting what feels like moderate menstrual cramps. I woke up this morning with these cramps, and for the past few hours I've had what feels like really bad diarrhea cramps (sorry, tmi), but no diarrhea. They are sporadic, but intense. Could it be a sign that labor is near? I'm 36 weeks today, btw (didn't even think I'd be able to keep him in this long).
