36 Weeks Pregnant Symptoms: What To Expect

As you approach the end of your pregnancy, you may start to experience a range of symptoms. These can vary from woman to woman, but here are some of the most common symptoms you might be feeling at 36 weeks pregnant.

Increased Backache

As your baby grows and your body prepares for labour, it’s common to experience increased back pain. This is due to the added strain on your muscles and ligaments. A real life example would be feeling a constant dull ache in your lower back, which can become more intense when you are on your feet for extended periods.

Shortness of Breath

Your growing baby is now pushing up against your lungs, making it harder for you to take deep breaths. This might feel like you’re running a marathon even when you’re just walking around your house.

Nesting Instinct

You might find yourself with a sudden urge to clean, organise and prepare your home for the arrival of your baby. This is known as the ‘nesting instinct’ and is completely normal.

Braxton Hicks Contractions

These ‘practice’ contractions can become more frequent and intense as your body prepares for labour. They can feel like a tightening in your abdomen, but should not be as painful as real labour contractions.

Frequent Urination

As your baby drops lower into your pelvis, they may press on your bladder, causing you to need to urinate more frequently. This can feel similar to the frequent urination you might have experienced early in your pregnancy.
