Anyone have sudden hot flush and sweats as sign of labour?

I am 38+4 and have started feeling a bit crampy around the pelvis since yesterday. Then today I was in sainsburys and had a sudden hot flush with sweats and then chills for about 10 min. Hasn't come back and I have no other symptoms of labour or the flu.

Anyone have this as a prelude to labour? I haven't found it via Dr Google.

Bumping for your and watching with interest as this has been happening to me on and off for the past few days! Im 37 weeks today.

Yes, I did have hot flushes in the few weeks leading up to labour.

I assumed they were linked to the upcoming labour but I guess it could have been coincidental with late pregnancy and hormones.

I'm 39 weeks & had a sweep on Thursday & felt like this all Friday, although now it's all gone again so I am hoping the next sweep will work! Confused

Thanks, everyone. I haven't had another and no sign if labour yet. Probably just a hormone surge. laura and smallbee - good luck!
