Hot flashes- 3rd trimester

Nearly 34 weeks with DC2 and I’m having crazy hot flashes. According to NHS website it’s all normal but I’m really struggling with how they’re making me feel.

It’s particularly bad at night - sleeping in nothing or very light cotton PJs, fan, window open but still waking sweating, which in turn is giving me a really bad headache as I’m getting dehydrated. Then need to drink water, and then need to get up and pee.

Has anyone been through this? Any tips?

I feel same. 34 weeks and hot flashes. We have installed the AC this spring and I just put them on the strongest mode

I struggled in the first trimester really badly with night sweats, so I started to put a towel down on the bed. It definitely helped, so much so I still do it now, almost 35 weeks and it’s definitely not as bad! Hope this helps - not long to go 🙏🏼 x
