for already moms

So I have heard before going to into labor some women feel sick like flu sick. I'm wondering because I feel like crap. My head hurts, I'm hot then cold and my body is sore. Is this normal? I'm 2 cm dilated  I have been having Braxton hicks contractions on and off all day I'm 37 weeks. Could this is the beginning signs of going into labor or am I getting sick?

Yeah I would say you are getting sick.  It during Labour during I for get but one of the last transition phase of Labour right before you have to push that a mom tends to get sick.  I have puked during that phase in all my labours.  There a bad flu bug going around. So keep your fluids up take your temperature etc. And if you aren't sure call your Dr.

Feeling sick generally happens during labor not before..  I would hold off going unless your also having regular contractions (every 5*minutes for an hour)  I got sick during labor but not before with both of my previous deliveries.
