almost time?

I am 38 weeks today.. scheduled csection due on the 15. But every day I'm having tightening alot. Most days it starts around afternoon, guessing from everything  I do that day...it was happening A LOT last night .  The tightening isnot really painful... just very uncomfy and breath taking. My daughter is laying horizontal.  Has been the whole pregnancy. I know it doesn'tmatter since iI'm having a csection but istthat why it is so uncomfy? Also I just woke up and made breakfast, and already the tightening  is really bad... should I try and make these very minor contractions stronger and closer? Like walking and squats? Or should I wait?

Please no mean comments: )

And thank you in advance!!

Also they said she has a lot more anmionic fluid than usual. And that if my water breaks, having contractions or bleeding to go in and they won't stop the process... is that a green light to be okay to help induce the contractions if they are coming even a little?
