I woke up last about 4:30am this morning needing to pee but I also had very bad pains in my Lower abdomen it felt like bad period pains and trapped wind...it passed after afew mins of tossing and Turing in the bed but came back and went again afew more times...eventually I got back to sleep but it's been happening to me again throughout the day bad pains, trapped wind feeling and my belly goes solid! I'm 37+4 weeks don't know if I've lost my mucus plug yet or not :S

Start timing  how often you feel them and how long they last if you can. It sounds a lot like how I felt before having my son! If they happen regularly and gradually get closer and longer its probably the real deal! They say to go to the hospital when they last at least a minute and happen every 5 min or less. Good luck!!!
