Could it be labor pains?

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and this morning I woke up and the middle of my back is hurting and my chest like my ribs. It hurts when I breath in to much and some people told me it could be labor pains. Is this true?

Sounds like your baby pushing up ward on your lungs abd rib cage. Also putting pressure on your back. Your getting further along now so lil one running out of room

Mine started with 2 BM right after each other, then I started feeling very uncomfortable, couldn't get comfy to even rest or sleep. A lot of pressure in the bottom region,  cramps in my belly and back and after timing them, we knew it was time.

Sorry but that doesn't seem like labour pains to me at all. You'll know when you're in labour.
