light-headedness?
I am almost 38 weeks pregnant. I having been feeling restless all day and I have been doing nothing but getting everything ready for the baby. I have been washing his clothes, working in his room, washing his bottles, and packing his diaper bag. Right now I am feeling light headed. Is this a sigh of labor? If not do you know what it is? I am having contractions and have been all day but Im not sure if they are Braxton Hicks. Also, my mother-in-law said that women who are close to giving birth lips look swollen. She said mine did, my sister told me that yesterday and she never heard of what my mother-in-law said. Has anyone ever heard that? I know I sound like a scared kid and Im sorry….just kinda concerned. It is nothing to call the doctor over and there are plenty of helpful women on here. Thanks a bunch!!!

There is no reason for you to be sorry for being scared. Everyone is scared about this and its perfectly normal. About the light headedness yes it is normal just try and take it easy and sit down for a while and drink some water it always helps me. Have your contractions been getting more intense and closer together? because then it might be contractions and not braxton hicks. You should use this site it can help you track the contractions. Its very easy to use this tracker and very helpful. http://baby2see.com/contractions_timer.html
Good luck with everything!!
I've never heard of the 'swollen lip' thing before, but the light-headedness could be b/c you're exhausted and need to rest. Then again since you're having contractions check to see if there 5 min.'s or closer to eachother. If so call your doctor and she'll let you know what to do next.
