Depends on the day. Today? Totally ready for it to be over. Yesterday? Loving life. I think how much sleep / quality of sleep I get impacts how I feel.
Being on bed rest with pre ecclampsia, yeah, I'm friggin done too. AND to ice that shitty cake, I have to do yet another 24 hour urine collection. Sigh.
@jenesiso I totally picture the shitty cake as one of those Pinterest fails. I hope things get better. I'm 33 weeks today and for the last 24 hours I've had acid reflux and a cold. I'm so over not being able to bend over, sore hips, crappy sleep, and the list goes on. My first came at 36 1/2 weeks, so I'm secretly crossing my fingers I can be done early again.
I'm 32 weeks and soooo over it. She's moving so much more now and it's making me feel nauseous constantly when she does. Heartburn has literally never been a problem for me, but I constantly have it now. Guhhhh. 8 more weeks to go.
The furthest I've gone is 39 weeks. Now that I've tested positive for gestational diabetes I'm hoping I won't go much further than 38 weeks... I believe they don't usually let you go to 40 weeks? I'm 30 weeks now. Time to soldier through. I don't want him to come too early, but this being #4 and having 3 other kids to chase around while pregnant I'm not going to lie when I say I'm not thoroughly enjoying it this time.
I'm definitely getting there but the app on my phone is still saying there is important things developing so I'm willing to wait. Also, my second was a week early and she got bad jaundice so I'd ideally like that not to happen again.

Meh. Little man is breech and likes to flgrind his head against my ribs while dancing on my bladder and cervix. So while I'm ready for that to be over, I dont want to have a c-section due to breech presentation and then deal with the NICU because he's only 32 weeks. So I'll wait. But ya, totally with you on the "done being pregnant" front.

I'm 32 weeks and 1 day and I am done. I am a FTM and no longer scared of being a mom simply because it means this baby will be out of me! I can't sleep anymore, i can't remember the last time i could breathe through my nose, everything hurts and/or is swollen. I've reached my limit. I can't believe i still have 8 weeks to go
I'm the odd ball here I guess. I'm 34+5 and freaking out because I'm so not ready. I'm scared I'm going to go early and we don't have anything really ready for baby yet. I know it will all work out one way or another but I want to at least make it to my baby shower so we have more than just a crib. Keep cooking babyfish!
@tigerfish227 I am exactly feeling the same. I am 33 weeks this week and I can not believe that it is only 7 weeks left. There are so many things I want to finish at work and at home before baby comes and i am very scared of the possibility that baby comes before 39-40 weeks.
For those of you who are miserable right now, remember that leaving your baby in the hospital when you are discharged is one of the worst feelings in the world. Baby has plenty more developing to do! (I am also miserable, but one preemie is enough for me.)
I'm 34 weeks and every time the baby moves I'm reminded that my body has been taken over by an uncomfortable alien. I can't sleep or poop or breathe or have sex the way I want to and I'm ready to be done. I would much rather have this kid on the outside.
I'm 33 weeks and have mixed emotions lol. I'm ready to be done with the recent symptoms. Until about 31 weeks pregnancy had been pretty easy other than constipation, but now I'm dealing with acne, insomnia, back pain, can't stop peeing, and AWFUL acid reflux. Swelling is also pretty bad now and I won't miss that. I'll be happy when all this calms down and I can lose some weight, but I'm also nervous about labor as a FTM and just being a good mom in general and having everything I need in place. Hang in there! Time flies and these babies will all be arriving very soon!
Am i uncomfortable? Heck yes. Do I want this baby out ASAP? NO! Because omg if this child is anything like DS I have so many sleepless nights ahead of me. Or the nipple pain from breastfeeding, or handling a toddler and an infant by myself. It's going to be insane.
I'm 34 weeks and ready but praying he stays put until 37 weeks for the best possible outcome! I'm 36 and have had such an incredibly easy pregnancy. Part of me feels like the birth may be another story, but I hope it's smooth sailing.

I was feeling great up until about 2 days ago. I just feel so tired , and I have a lot of fluid in my ankles and fingers so I feel stiff and old. And the gestational diabetes stuff is a drag. But I am okay with baby staying put---he has a kidney which is still measuring a little large, but as he gets bigger it is normalizing out. If he does this on the inside, he'll be fine but if he is born before it resolves, he will have to go on antibiotics until it does and I'd rather not have to do that.
@ashleymercado88 same! my husband is constantly bundled up in jeans, socks, hoodie and blanket in our house. I'm in a tank and shorts. I will not allow the thermostat over 68 when I'm in the house lol! I can control it from my phone too, so I make sure I set it good and low on my commute home

Lord, 68 sounds amazing! I'm sitting at my desk with two fans on me and I'm still sweating!
