yep, pretty normal.
Try drinking some water and eating a small, light snack to see if that helps.

The only thing about pregnancy that I have learned is that NOTHING is normal from your mind your body I'd try to think of more stuff but my brain stopped working after my first 2 babies. Yeah it's very common for nausia and frequent urination. I had to almost literally every 30 minutes because I had absolutely no room to hold anything with my last baby. And she hiccuped alot and kicked a lot so I was hot dizzy and sick all the time. Your uterus is also contracting on a very very regular basis even if you don't notice it, your body does though and that can make you sick. Just make sure you take your vitamins and get a lot of LOW heartburn high vitamin and filling small snacks. That was right about the time I got heartburn BAD so don't eat more than 2 hours before bed time if that starts to happen because the was one of the worst things about being pregnant.
But on a better note CONGRATS you're so lucky. Enjoy your little one cause when they come out that's the 100% greatest symptom of pregnancy. :0))))))))

I am 36 weeks too.
Lately I have been so exhausted I am sleeping as late as I can (my mother in law has been coming over to watch the kids so I can sleep in a bit). I have also been very nauseas and dizzy (like being 8 weeks pregnant again!
I actually was finding it difficult to do normal everyday tasks like showering (which would leave me out of breath), and cooking (which would leave me nearly throwing up). So I called my midwife, just to be on the safe side (I am no rookie either, this is my fourth pregnancy).
She told me that it is completely normal.. all of it.
However, that is my advice, my midwife knows my entire history, my bloodwork (anemia, prediabetes, etc).
You need to call your doctor/CNM and ask them if it is normal for you. At this late stage of pregnancy our bodies are gathering as much iron as possible for bleeding during delivery. You may have low amounts of iron (anemia), which can cause a couple of your symptoms.
As far as the urinating, oh yeah sister, peeing is almost a hobby! Welcome to the last month of pregnancy... several times a night, dozens a day we are visiting the porcelin God. It only gets worse too, when the baby drops (if this is number one for you it could happen anytime, subsequent pregnancies not usually until right before labor). When the baby falls into the pelvic cavity the urge to pee becomes ten fold (as in buy some stock in Charmin).
Plus with it being summer, you are probably retaining water. When it gets cooler out, or you eat something like watermelon or other foods that are diuretic you will pee that much more.
Drink a ton of water, regardless of how much you pee. I limit my water consumption to a glass a night (which satisfies my thirst) to stay in bed for more than an hour at a time. Don't drink tea, or soda they are diuretic and you will only torture yourself.
Don't stress about it. Call your doctor and make sure s/he doesn't want to run any bloodwork or urine tests. Make sure in your particular situation this is all normal.
And obsess over birth stories and labor symptoms!
Good luck!

The frequent urination is completely normal. There is a lot of weight on your bladder right now. The nausea and dizziness could be caused by many things. You may be a bit dehydrated. Try increasing your fluid intake. You should also call your OBGYN and tell them your symptoms.

Have your dr. do a dip test in your urine for bladder infection. Sometimes with everything so crowded down there the bacteria get started. You don't want to let it go. Also stay hydrated, lots of water, stay cool in this heat. What helped me was to put my feet in a pan or bucket of ice water. Very cold at first but really cooled me off and made me feel much better.

Very normal! You're body is getting ready for the big day! Unfortunately now all of a sudden you'll feel like crap, and every day you'll think, this is the day! Until it actually happens! The baby is dropping so he's sitting on you're bladder, and he's so big now he presses on your tummy so you feel sick. Goddess is right- stay hydrated and eat small meals often. Good luck!

You might find it is normal to pee alot because the baby will just be pushing on your bladder. It happens at all stages of pregnancy because your body is making more room for your baby. Maybe see a doc about the other symptons... all sounds pretty normal for pregnancy..

Perhaps you aught to have your blood pressure checked.
If you start seeing flashing spots in front of your eyes or if you develop a headache or your feet and legs start to swell more then the norm please go and get checked at a clinic.
At 36 weeks it is quite common to develop Toxemia ( pre eclampsia)
