Hello, for the past few days I've been getting bouts of nausea. I've read that this is a sign that labour is very imminent. Does anyone know if this is true? I also get waves of exhaustion. Thank you, Sarah

Hi I'm 37 weeks and also experiencing both the fatigue and nausea. It's hard to say it could just be what happens at the late stages. I know nausea can mean labour is coming but ive had it on and off for 2 weeks now. Pfffff

Is your baby breech? My dd is and it's made me feel nauseous- must be the way her head is pressing on my stomach??? Could just be end of pregnancy knackered!

I've had nausea on and off since 33 weeks and been hospitalised twice for iv fluids following severe vomiting, in 37+4 and no sign of baby yet! Getting lots of backache, period type pains etc. This is baby #2 and so very different from 1st labour (induced 48hrs after waters went, delivered at 40+4)

I feel dreadful, im on anti emetics to stop me being sick but feel totally wiped out!

Drs at hospital think it's just pregnancy related and will go when I deliver, but won't induce until 40+10!!!!!

Hope you feel better soon and baby appears for you x
