40 weeks pregnant with nausea and diarrhoea

[Luc28]

Since Yesterday I have been very nauseous and then through the night had constant diarrhoea (sorry for the info) baby's head was 2/5 a week ago .... Not sure if that's good or bad! No cramps as such just can't settle, uncomfortable to sit, hurts when I stand. Waters definitely not broken and not sure if this could be body's way of preparing or just ill. Any advise? X

Rest, keep fluids up, make sure you know where your notes are

Good luck!

This is a very common precursor to labour. The body often evacuates to prepare itself for labour. Hopefully you'll be having contractions soon! Do rest and keep your fluid levels up and if you feel very unwell call you MW or hospital/birth centre for advice.

Stock up on lucozade sport or something with electrolytes

You will need the energy for labour soon and double check you have everything you need for the hospital

Something simple I forgot was a change of clothes to wear home again but had put in 5 different outfits for my baby

Luc28 this is how my labour started with my first Dd.
Hopefully you will have your beautiful baby very soon.
Good luck Op!

Get bags packed . Starts like this for some

Hope your ready to have a baby op as it sounds like your about to have one good luck

Thank you all ... Il try and rest and hope something happens soon!
