Any advice? please I'm miserable

[medaroge]

I am 38wks now and miserable. I babys head is resting right on my cervix and it hurts to walk even or stand up. ctx dont hurt and are quite sporadic. Today at the grocery store I had a bit of a dizzy/sweaty/hot spell. Has that happened to anyone at the beg. of labor? I keep on wondering "is this it?" Oh yeah, constant back pain and heartburn for the last 24 hours.

Any advice? Please?
thanks mamas,

I had a couple of Bh that ended with hotflashes. They were really intense.

It could be that your labor is slowly starting....or it's just the end of pregnancy pains. I think everyone has these symptoms at the end.

I thought I was starting labor this week...lower back pain, diarrhea, painful contractions...now I got nothing...it is very frustrating

You could try some yoga moves, like childs pose or angry cat pose, to try to release some pressure off your cervix.

Well, I hope you feel better. Hang in there....it's almost over

I had dizzy spells/hot flashes when I didn't eat protein first thing in the morning the last couple weeks of this pregnancy. It was a good reminder to eat right. GOod luck mama

I'm at 38 weeks and very uncomfortable too. Many strange things hurt pretty bad, and I seem to contract at night for a couple hours keeping me up before it stops. So, I feel ya.... but we'll get through this
