What Causes Cold, Sore Throat And Sick Feeling In 38 Weeks Pregnancy?

Hi , I'm 38 weeks and 5 days pregnant. These last few weeks I got really sick. I've been feeling very tired & not myself. I have a stuffy nose & just got over a sore throat. I feel like puking sometimes mostly when I drink sweet stuff like juices. I keep getting braxton hicks & my bowel movements are starting to happen lots. What can this mean? Do I have a cold or is this how the last few weeks go? -First time mother.

Hi,

The last few days before delivery are very very taxing on the mother.
So do not worry.All the excess pregnancy hormone can make you feel so very uneasy .
All these symptoms mean that you are very close to delivery and will be delivering any time .
So,just be patient very few days remaining before your baby comes .

Hope this helps .
Regards.
