What Causes Thickened Flesh Between Vagina And Anus During Pregnancy?

I m 40 weeks pregnant. My due date is today. I just noticed that the piece of flesh between my vagina and anus has like thickened and gotten harder. I already have hemorrhoids from the pregnancy. So I guess I m wondering if this is caused from the hemorrhoids or a sign of delivery getting closer? I was dilated to a 2 and thinned 80% a week ago, but my water has not broke nor have I had regular contractions.
