Dear Amber - Welcome to the forum. Are you able to talk to your midwife or doctor about your pain? Have they offered any suggestions? You might find some relief if you can see a physiotherapist, chiropractor or osteopath.

i havnt talked to them yet asi dont see my midwife till next week! but do you think if im this weak they would be able to put me in labour

Hi Amber - If you are having difficulties why don't you call your midwife for advise. I cannot predict what they will suggest to do. But it would be really good to talk to the midwife about what you are experiencing and what you can do to help with the way you are feeling. Typically at 37 weeks - babies need to grow a little more before it is time to be born. Let us know how you go.
