Section in 3 days. Is feeling really sick normal? Bah!

[weebigmamma]

Just wondering if it's normal to feel ill close to B-day? I have had diarrhea for ages now (iron tablets not helping, although they do seem to have cured restless legs so no way am I stopping them!), but now I'm also feeling nauseous as well. Hope I'm not actually sick. Maybe it's just nerves, or maybe my body's having a last-ditch feeling-as-shit-as-possible-fest before it has to start feeling like a normal body again. Urgh.

I think nausea is quite common in early labour...

I'll be so annoyed if I go into labour now lol! I have had some cramps but nothing unusual with the tummy upset. Come on body- behave!!

Good luck! Hope you feel better and body benaves and all goes well with your section.:)

Is this your first baby?

cramps you say?

No it's not my first, but I was induced with the last one so I went from having no labour symptoms to full on screaming in a matter of minutes lol (just kidding for those who are to be induced- it wasn't all that bad and I had gas and air from the very start which was awesome). I don't think it's labour really- just feeling pretty icky.

Well, mild cramps and nausea could be early labour iirc (have blocked it out!) Hope not, if your section is all booked and sorted. And hope you feel better soon.

Thank you x. Urgh, pregnancy has been such a blast this time around....! ;-)

Quite a lot of women get ms back at the end, I think it's because the hormones are ramping up again. I felt terrible from about 34 weeks

To top it all I haven't felt many baby movements in the past 12 hours. sigh. This is my last full day at home before hospital shenanigans and I know it's going to be hard not to sit and worry all day!
