I am starting to feel like I am going to throw up frequently just like I did at the beginning. I also have been having alot of lose bowel movements and pain in my lower center abdomin when I walk or when I bend over its worse. Also alot of swelling in my hands and feet. I am in the 36 weeks. I have been feeling this for two days.. It gets stronger each day. Could this be the start of labour. 2 weeks ago I was told the head is down. She's also moving alot more headstand

Until the very end, I was thinking that you might be in labor, but when you said she's moving a lot more... I have been into labor 3 times (4 if you count the current moment, actually, since I'm technically in labor again), with them having to give me meds to stop it. One of the biggest indicators was that she stopped moving. That's why they tell you to test at least twice a day with stimulating foods to see if her movement is normal.

However, since your other symptoms sound a bit concerning, the best advice I can give you is to tell you to go to your doctor. Don't feel bad about calling a lot or anything. Most people go into this profession knowing that not only will they be getting a lot of phone calls, they won't always be during office days and hours. Besides, your main concern is the baby, so if the doctor gets a tad irritated, they will get over it. So go and talk to your doctor as soon as you can, and update with how you and the baby are. Smile
