Sick and almost due?
I was sick in the beginning of my pregnancy w/ a bad cold. I got over it and haven't been sick since. Until now. I'm getting that scratchy feeling in my throat that I usually get right before I'm gonna get a cold. I could drink orange juice but that hasn't been my best friend during the pregnancy so I would just throw it up annyway. I'll be 36wks in 2 days (even though u/s is giving a due date of oct 1st..which is in like 2 wks).. so my question is ... will being sick affect my labor in anyway?

It shouldn't. Congrats and good luck to you.
I think I may be in the same boat as you are. I am due the day before you are (which makes you closer to 38 weeks) and my daughter seems to have started a cold today. I am hoping I dont catch her cold as labor with a runny nose could make an uncomfortable day even worse. I doubt it will cause any complications, but just make things more miserable. So unless you get a fever or something you will be seeing your dr. every week now so just keep him posted in case you need an antibiotic or something.
not at all u will be fine
u dont give birth at 36 weeks
the full term pregnacy is 40 weeks
but they tell u the baby can come 2 weeks b4 or 2 wks after
so if they are saying about October its completely normal and
u cold wont afftect u in any ways
congratulations and good luck
I wouldn't think so...if anything you'll just be a little more uncomfortable, as if labor won't be bad enough on it's own but let your doctor know either way. Good luck!
shouldn't be a problem unless you had an infection, but a cold won't hurt you so far into your pregnancy.
Not really, just tell your doctor to make sure you don't have any breathing problems. ok? Congratulations my dear.
yes,preferrable for you to contact your doctor.
MY ADVICE IS CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR TO BE SURE NOTHING IS WRONG.LOL,
