Sooo sore!!!

So I'm 36 and a half weeks and I am just consistently in so much pain. My hips are always hurting, my inner thighs are really sore (almost feels like I did the splits and pulled something!), and I have a ton of pressure/dull pain in my vaginal/crotch area ALL THE TIME, it like, never goes away.
I know my midwife was shocked at my 35 week appointment with how low babies head already was and said she was "actively engaged in the birthing position", but is anyone else going through this much pressure/pain in those regions? Do you think it means baby is going to come early? I don't think I can handle 3 more weeks of this!! Lol

I don't have the pressure constantly but I get it frequently.  My hips hurt like crazy most days.

Ya I'm thinking alternating sitting on an ice pack, and a heating pad might be the way to go lol.

I have been having it. In fact I have it now and I feel like my hips are being ripped apart. My baby is also sitting really low down and I think it's her body stretching things. The only thing I can find that helps is a bath (or when I don't wanna do that) a water bottle of hot water. We don't have too much longer to go, which is an encouraging thought. :)

Oh I should also note, I still haven't been having any braxton hicks contractions which I find odd because everyone else says they are. I'm so confused hahahaa
