How much more??

in 3rd Trimester
30 weeks pregnant, and I really don't know how much bigger and more I can stretch... I feel like the baby is already too big for my body to be able to I guess "handle"... Hows everyone else doing with this feeling??

    I feel huge (thankful no stretch marks yet) but I am hoping I don't get to much bigger my belly button is completely flat and sore all the time! Not to mention sleep is near impossible and my back is killing me...and I still have 9 weeks..boo.

    Well, since you rarely hear about pregnant women exploding, I'm guessing you'll be able to handle it!  The results may not be pretty though...

    I could be 100% rare, but I was more uncomfy from 30-34 weeks than I am now at 36.  I think that is because my major problem was a kid in my ribs causing back pain.  The crazy belly just keeps defying the imagination though...

    I get bigger and more tightly stretched every day. I keep thinking "well I can't get much bigger..."  but then the next day *poof* I'm even bigger.

    I'm now almost 37 weeks and woke up early this morning because it feels like someone has punched me really hard in the vagina!

    I'm gathering from the boards that it is really not going to get more comfortable any time soon.

    We are in the home stretch, all we have to be able to do is tolerate this stage of pregnancy to the best of our ability, and then we get to meet our LO's!!

    There's actually a really good reason for pg to get so uncomfortable at the end, especially for FTM's.  It's our body's way of gearing us up psychologically for labor.  Think about it...  If you felt peachy keen, you'd be a lot more afraid and worried about what's going to happen in labor.  But since we're all so miserable, psychologically I'm like...  Let's get it on!!  Bring it baby!

    I feel as though I am the same size now at 29 weeks that I was the day I delivered DD. I have gained as much weight already!
