I am 36 weeks as well. I'm also having same symptoms. Plus I feel exhausted too quickly can't walk much or do any work. Plus I can't listen to any stressful things regarding anything. I try to keep myself clam and lay on bed to rest.
Hopefully we get through this in few more days. Be strong!! We are almost there.

Just a little more time and we will have all the peace and happiness in the world.

That sounds like Braxton Hicks contractions. Completely normal, especially as far along as you are. Don't worry, it's your body's way of preparing for delivery!

If they become very regular (like 15 mins apart or less) or become really painful, then give your doctor a call because it could mean that labor has started. But from what you just described, I'd say Braxton Hicks contractions. You can Google that for more info. ;)
