Night chills and shivering - anyone else?

So, about 3 weeks ago I woke up in the night, rather chilly. Went to the loo and just started shaking and shivering uncontrollably. I felt fine apart from that, just felt utterly chilled to the core.

It was a cold night (winter here) but not that cold.

Jumped back to bed and had to basically be covered by DH to warm up, and it went off after I would say 10 minutes.

Anyway, it happened again last night. Absolutely freezing, shivering, teeth chatteringly cold.

Has anyone else had this? I'm 32 weeks and do have GDM but I also have a snack before bed at 10, and this was at about 3am I suppose, so it shouldn't be low blood sugar, especially as I tested this morning and my reading was completely normal.

I had this a few weeks ago, it was horrible with huge whole body shivers, haven't had it since and again it wasn't a particulary cold night. I even got up and tested my temperature but it was normal. I guessed if it wasn't a regular occurrence and my temp was ok then all was well and it's just another wierd pregnancy thing!

It's horrid isn't it?! Like being wracked with tremors or somthing.

I shall probably file it under "weird pregnancy things" then and not worry too much....
