Sweating...

[mrsturner17]

Just wanted to ask if anyone else is suffering from this or if I'm se strange case! Every time I go to sleep whether it be a quick nap or complete deep sleep overnight I wake up dripping in sweat and it's becoming rather annoying as I have to now wash my bed sheets Everyday!!! Doesn't matter what I wear iv even tried naked and it still happens iv Tried sleeping with a window open n it doesn't change anything I'm unsure of whether its down to pregnancy or not :/

How far gone are you? Could be hormonal, but drenching night sweats should always be investigated: pregnant or not... Make an apt to see your GP xx

Oh dear... I've been having drenching night sweats on and off for years and years and years, never thought it was anything to worry about. I'll mention it next time I go to the doctors. Just thought it was a Kaleidoscopism. Certainly used to do it more when I was due on and during the first few days of menstruation.

Common thing are common - mostly benign... There are a few much rarer nasties that should be ruled out. X

I'm 30 weeks, been getting them for about 2 weeks x

Same here it's a very new thing for me too, again the last two weeks, I have major hot flushes at night and sometimes during the day, my face goes bright red lol, I think it's pregnancy hormones!

Yes i do experience this. Im only 14+wks but like this morning for instance i woke up to a rather damp pillow. I guess its just another one of those pregnancy hormone joys.

I started getting this around 30 weeks( now 35). Seems to wake me up around 3am drenched especially like a river running between my boobs! It's horrible. Think its the hormones and the increased blood volume and your body still working overtime even when your sleeping! It's not nice do hope it goes when baby arrives!
