Vent about going past due date

KitKatKate05 · June 2010

One of the things that annoys me the most about going past my due date is that it means that I am STILL gaining weight! Grr. It actually pisses me off, which I know is irrational.

I can't wait to have this baby so I can start working to get my old body back. I am seriously sick of being this huge and uncomfortable. I feel like a mountain walking around.

Can anyone else relate?

I am completely in the same boat. I have a sneaky suspicion this LO wont be coming any time soon and I'll be pregnant for a few more weeks, but the way I've looked at it is he/she will come when they are ready. And as much as I want to meet him/her, I want them to be healthy.

Cheer up! Soon we will be back in the gym!! Good Luck to you!!

Of all the things that might have irritated me about going to my due date, this was not one of them. Wanting to be able to sleep on my stomach again? Yes. Being swollen like a sausage and peeing every 15 minutes? Yes. Gaining weight? No. You're gaining weight because you're supposed to be.

While I won't be going past my due date, my first was 10lbs+ at 39wks 5days and this one is measuring at 42 wks already...so it feels as though I'm past 40wks. I'm ready to start getting back to normal too and lose this big ol belly and SO tired of being asked if I'm having twins.

ETA: but no I'm not worried about gaining more weight...even if I could go past my due date. Lord knows I've gained enough...a couple more weeks wouldn't make a difference for me at this point! LOL

I am sick and tired of being this huge too and can't wait to get my body back. With my first pg I don't think I was so obsessed with getting back into shape as I am this time around. But I've also gained more weight this time...

I feel huge and I'm not even due yet! I can only imagine how you are feeling. Hopefully the baby will come soon!

My least favorite thing is the going crazy part. I'm now worried that I didn't gain enough weight and that's why he's still baking -- started at 120; was 142 at my highest and am now losing weight every week (138 today). I know it's irrational but so am I these days.

I hear ya!! Everyone asks if I am having twins!! I am so huge!! I am so ready for this baby. I feel bad saying it, but I am ahving such a hard time with the weight gain. Almost 50 lbs at this point!!

I'm just tired of the constant texts, inappropriate FB posts, and people asking me if I've given birth yet. Sigh.

This is going to be my big pet peeve as well. My due date is today and i've already had those comments for a week....I may stop answering the phone altogether.
