Hello I am now 32+2. During my sleeps I am sweating excessively esp. my neck, head and back. My husband says I had sometimes diffucilties in breathing as well. Are these normal? I was 44 kg before pregnancy until now I gain 15 kg.

I started snoring also. However, I dont know whether I snore or sweat when I lay back. I cant help also laying not to my back. For checking the hormones what shoul I do?

Nothing U can do it's just ur hormones changing but if it continues then give ur midwife a call just to check all is ok or see ur g.p x

Do you have any idea that it will last until the birth or does it get lower?

I had sweating but it was earlier on in my pregnancyand I only had it for about a week it may continue or stop better to speak to ur midwife or g.p so they can rule out anything else x

Personally I'd say the sweating is normal, from about 16-18 weeks onwards I sweated ridiculously especially at night so much so I had to sleep naked on top of my duvet with a thin blanket over me or I'd wake up to wet bed sheets but I still use to sweat a lot like that! Xx
