    Question Feeling sick before ....

    going into labour.

    I have been feeling very off for the last few days. To the point of feeling like I want to vomit. Just a constant nauseous feeling.

    What I want to know is has anyone had this feeling prior to going into labour ??

    I am trying to work out whether this is a stomach bug (without any other issues) or whether it could be my body getting ready for labour. Thinking that perhaps a hormone surge could be causing the nausea,

    I was sick when I went into labour with Tehya, but that was more of a flu thing, hight temps etc.

    TIA

    I was sick a couple of weeks before I went into labor with Rochelle... My Dr told me it was hormones changing and getting ready for birth or something... But then I had that awful migraine a couple of nights before I had Rochelle which was accompanied with nausea... Sorry, that info probably wasn't that helpful, but I suppose I did get a little bit sick! Definitely got sick in transition! ROFL

    Good luck Trish... How exciting!!

    Hey Trish

    it does sound like your body is responding to a surge in hormones....yay...not for nausea

    I was really emotional for the few days before I went into labor with Jay...and then nauseous in transition...yucko

    rest up yummy mummy

    LOL for the 3 weeks before labour I had on/off nausea and feeling ill. The day of labour starting I sent Matilda to day care because I felt so ill, I stayed in bed all day & snapped at anyone who would talk with me. That night I went into labour... and all I can say was it was an intense feeling of yuck. I slept and laid in bed with nausea and grotty feelings.

    Hi Trish
    It is very common to feel sick before going into labour. Looks like your baby will be in your arms soon

    Are you serious when you say your midwife will not get there in time?
