Reduced movements

Just wondering what is likely to happen when you ring triage and say you feel the baby less move? I’m 36 weeks and I’m not sure if I’m being paranoid because I’m so fed up and want him out or if he’s actually being less active

Back contractions?

I have what feels like a period pain in my back and needing to poo multiple times today already when getting the pain. It doesn’t feel really painful though which makes me feel this isn’t labor so I won’t get too excited. How painful should I expect contractions to be? 😅
