Is it normal to just feel completely grotty at this stage?

38 weeks and feeling nauseous, lethargic and generally shit. Is this normal? Sometimes i feel a bit light headed so I'm trying to drink more. Seeing mw in a couple of days so il speak to her but does it sound normal or like something I should address before then?

Same is happening to me and I'm only 34 weeks

I think so yeah? I'm 37+3 and so lethargic and sleepy, also lightheaded. Not nauseous though, poor you Sad

Any headaches, swelling or sense of impending doom (seriously) needs to be checked definitely. Otherwise you're supposed to feel a bit crap and tired at the end I think.

I'm the same. 38 weeks and keep feeling awful. I feel like I'm about to wake up with flu. I could do with a weeks worth of sleep, a decent shag and a few bottles of wine.

Grin wowbutter perhaps that's whats wrong with me!
No swelling or feelings of impending doom so guess I'll just put up with feeling shit and hope this baby comes out sooner rather than later!

I’m 38+4 today, saw midwife today who said it is normal and a lot of women say that they feel like that when they are starting to go into labour.
I feel like I’m getting flu but like it’s on the edge - like wowbutter says like I’m about to wake up with full blown flu.

Fingers crossed its labour soon then!
