Last weeks of pregnancy...question on symptoms...
The last few weeks I have just not been feeling all that great. This week has been particularly difficult. I am pretty nauseaus and well, let's just say I have gone completely in the opposite direction of constipation. I also seem to have an almost constant headache..not unbearable, just strong enough to make me want to lay down a lot more then I have been. Insomnia is also a big one right now. I haven't changed my diet or anything, and I know I haven't eaten anything "off". I was looking on line and it say's this can happen as we get closer to the end of our pregnancies. I am not really worried, just curious if others experienced this. I am assuming it's a combination of hormones and the mild stress I am experiencing knowing I will deliver soon.
It sounds to me like you are getting really close and all your symptoms are normal. One thing I remember from the day I went into labor was the fact that ALL food was not appealing. I didn't want anything to eat and couldn't even think about it. Have you had any contractions yet (BH or otherwise)?
Amanda,
My delivery is Wed. so you all better get busy if we are going to have these babies on the same day.....LOL I don't think my Dr will post pone it any further.
As for pooping, well I'm kinda embarrassed to say I did it w/ my son. I knew right when it happened and was so shocked that I actually did that. I kept apologizing, and the Dr kept saying she was used to it. I hear that usually a woman wont even know when she does it. That was not my case, but that could be because I didn't get my epidural and I was cussing all the Drs and nurses. Maybe it was to put me in my place.....LOL

Lol, pooping on the table is one of my biggest fears. I know it's not abnormal, but I would be mortified!!!
Amanda.. I did the same in the bathroom the 2 days prior to birth and the dr said that was my body getting ready for birth... so I wouldn't poop on the table hahah you are close!!!
I have the exact same symptoms. Last few days I have def been in the bathroom more going #2. LOL ;) Terrible insomnia, nausea, headaches.. Feels like I am back in the first trimester. UGH! My boobs have also started to leak and throb. Terrible pressure and shooting pains in the cervix. Already lost my plug but a lot more discharge.Lots of contractions and already 3cm and 50% effaced. I go back on Monday for another NST and as I have said to adgal I hope I am 4cm and they send me in to the hosp.
