Are these real contractions?!

36+4 my husband and I had sex now I'm having frequent but kinda painful contractions. Not so painful to where I can't breathe but, painful to wear I wish I could take an ibuprofen haha. My back starts hurting quite a bit as well with every contraction. This is the first time I've gotten them after sex. Is this the start of everything???

Must be, time them and if they are regular they might be real. Lucky you I've been having sex all week and just a few small painless contractions and I'm 39 weeks.
