Sweating like Some Kind of Farm Animal!!!

OMG, I am gross!! I am in my last 2 weeks of pregnancy, it is COLD (like mid 40's!) out, and I can not seem to stop sweating. Ladies, it really is disgusting. I am wearing short sleeved shirts and yoga pants for the most part and it just doesn't seem to stop. Right now, sitting inside my house I am in a nighty and the pits are wet!
What can I do? has this ever happened to anyone? Did it stop once the baby was born?

What can I do next?

Hormones are fun, right? Yes, it does stop after the baby is born and your hormones (and body weight) are back to normal.

For now, just keep wearing light and loose clothing and try some of the "clinical strength" deodorants.

Good luck!

Let go of the farm animal image! Thinking this way only makes you feel worse. Accept that your hormones are acting up and this is a normal part of pregnancy. You are not some disgusting farm animal. You are a beautiful woman soon to give birth to a beautiful baby.

Its hormones and pregnancy!
I got like that too.
Try having a fan blow directly on you.

After baby is born, hormones change again.
But it will stop.

So sorry. I agree with Krista. Hormones. the upshot...start buying 100% cotton comfortable clothes for after, as there will still be some hormonal issues. and comfort is key when a new momma.

I was the same way- and it lasted for about 6 weeks after my pregnancy. Your hormones are just on overdrive.
