In the 32nd week of pregnancy, it is common for the pregnant woman to feel tired, due to the weight gain and the considerable size of her belly. However, other symptoms may also appear in the 32nd week of pregnancy, such as the following:
- Back pain.
- Heaviness and swelling of the legs.
- Increased urination.
- Constipation and hemorrhoids.
- Heartburn.
- Spots on the face.
- Itching and stretch marks on the belly.
- Colostrum discharge.
In addition, the pregnant woman may notice Braxton Hicks contractions in the 32nd week of pregnancy.

However, if these contractions are labor contractions, the pregnant woman should go to the hospital as soon as possible.
