cramping?

Okay, so this may be a dumb question... I've been having period like cramps in my lower abdomen and lower back for about 2 1/2 hours now. It doesn't seem like my stomache is getting hard when they come like it does with my braxton hicks contractions.. Just wondering if anyone else has had this or knows what it could be? I've had BH contractions pretty much since my 25th week or so, and I know it isn't that... Any ideas???

has baby dropped?! this could be it.
Or its very likely that you are just have true contractions.
Good Things!!! Maybe its helping you thin out or dialate.
I loved that feeling, b/c i knew i was getting very close

Yep, sounds like real contractions to me!

Yeah, baby's dropped.. I'm 2 cm dilated 80% effaced since 3 weeks ago.. I'm supposed to be getting inducedthe 18th if I don't go before then.. I'mkinda hoping this is the start of labor but since I've never had a baby before, I wasn't sure if the cramping Im feeling are real contractions or what....

Thank you! I really hope it is the start!! I'm kinda nervous about getting induced... hoping to go on my own..   Keep me in your thoughts!!
