    I woke up from my nap with diarrhea, nausea, and a really bad headache
    I just woke up from my 2 hour nap with bad cramping so I went to the washroom to find that I have diarrhea. So I didn't think of it much I have had a go a few times but now my headache is killing me and my nausea isn't going away either. I am 39 weeks pregnant today is there anything I can intake or do?

    Hopefully it is a sign of things to come... :) In an odd sense, feeling crummy about the time of your due date can be a good sign that your body is preparing for birth. You can usually take something like Tylenol for the headache, and you might find sour candy or peppermint helps with the nausea. I use these, on a stick so they can be held onto it, with women in labor who sometimes feel nauseous. If you find your symptoms are severe, wise to let your doctor or midwife know. Could also be a stomach virus... hope it's for a good reason though!

    Thanks DoulaLC I am hoping it is for the good reason as well, I do feel really tired crummy and just not well.
