I get it now

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.

  • I am so sorry, UGA. I hope that your head feels better sooner rather than later.

  • No good. Hope you feel better, soon.
  • You really should call your OB.  1 sign of pre-eclampsia is a headache that just won't go away.  Please please please call your OB and have your BP checked, asap.

    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.

  • I feel the same way.  When I would hear people saying they were done and wanted their baby here I used to think well you only have 3 more weeks it can't be that bad or you should be used to being pregnant by now.  Now that the shoe is on the other foot I completely understand.  The aches and pains are ok for a while but when they drag on for weeks they are just exhausting.  I want her to stay put for a few more weeks because I still have stuff to get done but if those weeks could go by quickly I would really appreciate it.

  • 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.

  • Aww, I'm so sorry to hear this. I get migraines every once in a while, but nothing that compares with those of you who get them chronically. I hope it eases up soon and you're able to get plenty of rest (or as much rest as you can considering it feels like there's an axe lodged in your skull). Good luck Sad

  • 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.
