At what point where you "done" with pregnancy?

I feel so guilty feeling like this when I am only 31 weeks but I am ready to meet her and feel like myself again.  I have to roll myself out of bed, I feel like I am 90 if I get up after sitting for a couple of minutes, walking around a store is tiring, I'm constantly tired, the craziest things make me tear up,...I won't go on because I am whining. 

Of course I know she needs to bake a little longer and I would never ever wish for her to come right now.  I just want to feel 29 again and not like an old lady :)  Also I still have a lot to do so I need these next 9 weeks!  

Is this normal feelings or am I just being emotional?  At this point the latter wouldn't surprise me at all.

  • For me, it was 39 weeks, lol!  I was induced at 40wk and 6days because my OB wouldn't let me go any longer than 41 weeks.  I was so ready to meet her!

  • Yeah I can imagine that the anxious to meet her feelings are just going to get stronger and stronger :)  And I shouldn't complain because this whole pregnancy has really flown by!
  • I was 'done' in the mid 30s.  I was so ready to meet her and getting so big and miserable.

  • I think I was ready for the birth at around 5-6 weeks when my morning sickness hit full swing. Lol. Thankfully that only lasted about a month and then things got easier until I was around 33 or 34 weeks.

    At that point my back hurt so bad that I just wanted her to be here.

  • I guess I would say around 35 weeks with both my girls.  My pelvis killed me and my aches and pains just really increased after that point.
  • It was in the 30's b/c I had started back to school and it was wearing me out!! However, we weren't prepared at that point, so I still needed her to stay!
  • It is funny how things work.  I was just over on 3rd tri and a girl had her water break last night at 27w4d and she had a textbook pregnancy (which ironically is what my doctor called mine last week).  No warning, no problems.  They are hoping to keep baby cooking till 34 weeks and she is going to be in the hospital until then on bedrest.  It also reminds me of Kristi. 

    So in reality I am thankful things are so normal...and I just needed a minute to whine....moment over and now I can go back to regularly scheduled stuff :)  Thanks for listening!  

  • Actually I felt the best I have ever felt during the whole pregnancy.  I remember being SO ready on 5/26 (40 weeks/4 days), and he came on 5/27.  I never had any real aches or pains until labor, and I am truly thankful for that!
  • Don't feel bad...I was 'done' at 28 weeks. lol Once I hit the 3rd tri mark...I was ready for it to be over.
