I couldn't understand why some people were so ready for their babies to be here as soon as they his 37 weeks but now I get it. I've been in migraine hell for about the last 36 hours and all I want are some hardcore drugs. I didn't want LO to come until at least 39 weeks but now I'm not sure I can make it that long if I keep getting migraines like this. I haven't been able to sleep at all. I couldn't come to work yesterday which makes me feel guilty since I have to leave early today and tomorrow for drs apts.
I was feeling really good until this migraine hit. Now I understand why the girls who have been so uncomfortable are just ready for it to be over.
Re: I get it now
Burned by the Bear
I have an apt this afternoon but I'm 90% sure this isn't pre-e. I've had migraines for years and nothing makes them go away except for migraine specific drugs. In the beginning of the pregnancy I had a lot of migraines, then I got a break, and then they came back about 3 weeks ago. They are my typical migraines, only on one side of my head and hurt all the way down my neck and into my back. I talked to my dr about them last week and she doesn't seem to think it's pre-e. This is just the worst one I've had in a while and it's kicking my butt.
Sorry about your migraines
I hate that I'm so grouchy and just want it to be done, but I AM GROUCHY AND JUST WANT IT TO BE DONE. Last time I didn't get like this until 40 weeks, so I'm annoyed with myself for being so ready this early, but I can't help it. I have never been so uncomfortable in my life.
Hope you feel better. I remember around 36W I was done. Before that, I felt pretty good.
My due date was Oct 1 and I could not imagine still being pregnant.
OK good, I'm still glad you'll have your BP checked. I'm sorry you get migraines, they're horrible.
