Hello, ladies,

I'm 38 + 6 and usually have loads of energy- indeed I still go to the gym 5 x a week. I have felt fine this week however today- despite sleeping through the night for the first time in months last night I feel totally drained and achy- am I just wishful thinking or could this be a sign the baby will be making an appearence soon?

You should get a super high energy boost like never before when the baby's about to come.... the drain usually happens a couple of weeks before. But you never know....rest while you can, you will need it. Good luck!

i was super high energy all through the last trimester, then a couple of days of feeling really drained. after this i had a day of super high energy again and went into labour that night - good luck!

Nothings changed- thanks for the advice ladies x
