Hematocrit or PCV is basically a measure of red cells in your blood; if it is low, it means you might need iron supplements, so do discuss the report with your gynac.

I literally traveled in autos until my 8th month because of work, but I always asked the bhaiya to drive very slowly. Just listen to your body and avoid it if the road is too bad or if you feel any discomfort.

Totally agree with the others. In the 7th month, the backache and frequent urination really kick in, so keep a pillow handy and stay hydrated.

Honestly, my face looks like a map right now in this 3rd trimester, haha! I've just accepted it and am waiting for delivery to fix my skin, just using basic sunscreen for now.

Yes, your metabolism is running high so feeling warm is expected. I had to modify my evening walks to early mornings to avoid overheating. Just stay hydrated and don't overexert yourself without checking with your doctor.
