    Nausea in third trimester?

    Hey

    I’m just about 28 weeks (1 night to go) with this being my first pregnancy, but I have been experiencing nausea waves again. I have had this since Friday. I thought it might have been a bug so shrugged it off the first couple of days, but now it seems to be getting worse. I had a very rough first trimester with morning sickness 24/7 with vomiting and that didn’t end until about 22 weeks. Now it feels like this it is slowly coming back. Is it normal to have morning sickness in third trimester or could it be something completely different?

    Also Braxton hicks, has anyone experienced bad Braxton hicks this early in pregnancy (28 weeks), as the weeks or even days go on, the worse the pain gets. I usually get about 10 a day now. I hope this is normal.

    Thanks

    Hi Deana

    Unfortunately it is not unusual for MS to return in 3rd Tri.
    Most books will tell you that Braxton Hicks are mild however for some women they can be quite painful and yes they can start at 28 weeks.
    Braxton Hicks contractions a irregular, that is you may have one contraction lasting just a few seconds and the next one could last a couple of minutes.

    I've had braxton hicks from about 25 weeks so yes completely normal.

    And i too have been experiencing waves of nausea. I've been sick a few times as it became too much.

    I also get nauseas when im having strong braxton hicks.

    thanks for th replies, Im glad to know that all of this is normal. The MS is driving me up the wall though and was hoping for th next 3 months to fly by nice and easy, yeah right!!!! I hope the next 3 months go fast as I can't stand MS. Hopefully it won't get as bad as it did in the first trimester.
