34.5 weeks and the pain is unbearable!

is this normal??  for the past 2 weeks you guys my body has just been KILLING ME.  Like I practically cry when I walk, the pain and pressure is SO much, I'm constantly having contractions (I was having them 2-3 minutes a part at my NST on Monday), my back is throbbing, I have menstrual type cramps practically all day long - I'm just miserable!  I'm NOT a complainer and haven't complained my entire pregnancy, to anyone!  But the pain is really getting to me.  I can't stand for more than a minute, I can't turn over in bed without reeling in pain.

Just wondering how "normal" it is?  My doc didn't seem bothered by it and laughed it off as just being pregnant with twins, which is may very well be!

Anyone else in the same boat or am I just a freak??

  • You're definitely NOT a freak.  Unfortunately, it's normal though (for a twin pregnancy).  The last few weeks were the most miserably uncomfortable I've ever been through in my life.  The good news is that you really will forget all about it the second you meet those babies!  I promise!

    Good luck!

  • Things really started to go down hill for me around 30 weeks.  until then it was like i wasnt even pregnant but then the swelling started.  the week or so before my water broke i felt like the LOs were literally gunna fall out the bottom of my stomach.  Its very normal with twins. 

    I would just keep an eye on your contractions.  I agree with PP the second the los are out you forget all about how miserable you are!

  • I feel almost that bad at 29 weeks, so I'm really afraid of what 34 will be like! Hang in there!
  • Completely normal...hang in there.  You are so close now.  Just take it easy.  I am doing by best to hang in there for the next 12 days.  Don't know how I am going to do it.

I was just thinking tonight about how several weeks ago I was swearing I wouldn't be able to bear it another 2 weeks, yet I can't for the life of me get these babies to get out now! :P I'm sending them an eviction notice next week!!!
