I am 35 weeks and have been feeling absolutely horrible for the past 5 days. I can't determine if this is "normal" pregnancy related stuff, or if my body is telling me that it can't take much more. I have been nauseous, more nauseous than I've been the entire pregnancy. I threw up on Friday for the first time and have seriously been fighting it ever since. I am so filled with fluid that I feel like I can't open my eyes all the way and I sound so congested and nasal-ly. My feet can barely fit into my shoes first thing in the morning and EVERYTHING is swelled. My fingers are about 3 times their size, my lips are huge, my nose is huge, and I feel like my tongue is even swelled up. I am exhausted even though I sleep 8-10 hours a night and my entire body is sore. My LO has been moving a TON - more than normal. I have dropped a bit but she is breech, so I haven't dropped that much. I have been going #2 a lot, almost like when you're sick, and would swear that I am sick except that this kind of bug would probably only last a day or two.
Sorry for that long rant - that was not my intent. I'm curious, is this par for the course and what people go through at this stage in the game? Were other people feeling lik this and did you end up going into labor early? I am really worried that my next 4-5 weeks are going to be unbearable or that something is wrong. Am I just being a paranoid first-time pregnant lady??
