I would say 6-7. My feet hurt from shopping for 5 hours today and I know they will be worse tomorrow. I'm not used to having physical limitations. Sleeping is becoming the worst also.
I would say an 8. My pelvis hurts so bad, I get extremely full after eating small amounts, And I am on bedrest so I soar from lying around doing nothing.
Oh yeah...and I have not be able to sleep more than about an hour and a half for about the past month due to needing to pee multiple times in the night.
3ish. ?hard to gauge since i have no idea how bad it will get. ?certainly, i have limitations and that's hard to own up to. ?but i feel good for the most part.
Probably just a 4 or 5. I'm having some pretty bad feet problems and I think it's because of the extra weight I'm carrying. It feels like my left foot is seriously broken, but I've done nothing to cause it to hurt.
I'm also getting some pretty bad indigestion when I lie down.

I would give it a 6 right now. About a month ago, I would have said more like an 8. But the maternity belt I bought has been an absolute lifesaver. I wear it about 90% of the time that I'm awake, and it even helps me sleep better (I guess because my back isn't under so much strain all day) and really helped with my pelvic pain.

It the last week or so it went from 3 or so to about an 8. I pulled a muscle in my back/side last week and it is just bad. Not to mention bed time is now enough to make me want to cry.
I'd say a 4, max. I've been fortunate though, in that I can work from home, DH has been picking up a lot of slack, and when the BH or swelling start, I am able to take it easy. I'm sure if I had kids already, or had to still commute and sit in an office all day, my 'score' would be WAY higher.
At 37+w, there are definitely things I can't WAIT to be done with, but overall I have been blessed w/a great pregnancy and I cannot complain much!
Probably 6. It feels worse sometimes, but I only imagine it's going to get worse!
Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever! Expecting again after IVF
I'm pretty freakin' uncomfortable but I'm only going to say 6. This is with constant groin pain due to pubic symphysis, lower back pain, and very little sleep. Oh, and I have a sore throat and cold. But I feel like it could get worse .. so I'm sticking at 6 for right now!
Wheee!

Ok, I will not complain about my pregnancy at all bc I after reading your responses I realize how lucky I truly am. I would have to say I am still at a 1. I have had the easiest pregnancy but I have considered it payback for taking 34 cycles to get pregnant.?

I would say I'm at a 3 right now. Swelling in my feet/ankels has been my biggest problem lately. I've been doing nothing but relaxing for the last few days and the swelling is now almost gone, so my feet feel 100% better. When they were at their worst, I would have said I was at a 6. Other than that, I have a few aches and pains, but I'm still sleeping great and Iam otherwise pretty comfortable.
probably a 4-5 on the weekend, about an 8 when I am at work- I'm on my feet ALL day and get horrid back pain, leg pain/cramps, and foot pain. UGH. And I have 3 more months!!!
I'd say a 2 - I've had some pain on the back of my leg but that's it. I'm waiting for it all to change in the next 2 or 3 weeks like most women have mentioned.
I think I am a six. I havn't gotten used to my big size (I feel like I just blew up a week or two ago). I know it will only get worse though. Hopefully I will figure out how to carry it without waddling.
Re: POLL: From 1 - 10...
I'm going to say 5. I'm irritated at lots of things, but I'm not misreably uncomfortable.
Today I'm about a 9. Normally, I'd say 3 or 4.

Probably ranges between a 2-5 so far, I feel pretty normal until I try to tie my shoes or roll over in bed at night.

I would have to say 2-3. I've had a suprisingly easy pregnancy.
