Anyone else feel like 20 weeks is STILL so far away?

Luvmy2sons · December 2011

I felt like the previous 20 weeks have went SO fast. But all of a sudden I feel like time has stopped completely. I know they'll go just as fast, I guess i'm thinking of the next 20 weeks as starting at square 1. Is it April yet? **taps fingers on desk**

Yep. I'm so conflicted because this pregnancy has been so rough on me. I've been going along this whole time thinking that all these symptoms would disappear once I delivered. But now with just 16-17 weeks left (conception/ovulation EDD vs LMP EDD), I'm petrified all of this will continue post delivery.

It feels very far away. On the other hand it seems right around the corner. I made my next two appointments and then they said that I will need to make them for every two weeks after that! Yikes! That sounds crazy that I am that far along for that.

This is my favorite time of being pregnant. I am not sick anymore, I feel baby move everyday, but I am not uncomfortable yet.

My SIL had her baby last night and it made hubby and I realize how ready and excited we are...but we still have 20 weeks to go!!!!!!!!!!! I'm hoping they fly by! Because i'm ready to have my baby and then have all summer off to spend time with him!!!

I was actually just thinking "I'm only 21 weeks" today it seems the first 20 weeks flew and we're at a standstill- I'm sure it will fly by as time goes on

I am the opposite- I feel like time is going WAY too fast! We still have so much we need to do before this baby comes

I think being an end-of-monther is tough that way. We're the last to get to do anything! I've been feeling like the half-way point is taking FOREVER to get here. (though seriously...I'm really close now)

I do because I know how fast the 2nd half will drag!

stephlas8 · December 2011

Whoever said that pregnancy flies by lied. I feel like 21 weeks have definitely gone by and that the next 19 will take much longer. So glad this half has the baby showers and the perks of seeing the nursery come together. I just want baby girl to get here!

shouldbworkin · December 2011

I go both ways! Party!!!

April seems like it's right around the corner. December will fly by, then it will be January and time for 3rd tri. that's freaking me out a bit.

But, at the same time, I already feel huge and I know I'm going to get so much bigger. The fact that I have 4 more months of growth is freaking me out too.

I was an end-of-monther last time (EDD 09/27/2010) and it really dragged on for me when Sept moms started giving birth in July!

NayNaysPlayPen · December 2011

For me it seemed like time was draggin, but before I knew it I was at 17 weeks in a snap! The last 3 weeks have gone sooooo slow though because I am waiting for a/s. I am curious to see how time will fly once I know my Babys sex! I bet it will go fast, then slow down a couple weeks before my 4-D u/s. Time goes so slow when I have something to look forward to!

I think it is approaching so quickly. As a teacher, I don't look at calendar years, but rather school years. Christmas break is in a week and some change and I don't go back until January 9. Then, I'll teach Romeo and Juliet, a big essay, some test prep stuff (uuugh) and be done! I think it will be here faster than I realize.

I feel the same, watching everyone else hit the halfway point weeks ago and I'm finally getting there. But, I have enjoyed seeing the questions and concerns come up so by the time I reach those milestones (NT scan, anatomy scan, etc) a lot of my questions have been answered.

snoangel79 · December 2011

At most I have 15! I have no idea if I will make it till 38 weeks with these two though I will be a house!!

laurack · December 2011

hmm I don't know I'm kind of conflicted. I feel like whoah already 22 weeks, holy crap! I am NOT READY to have a baby!! So I am glad to have more time until she comes.

However I fear the discomfort that is to come, and the hugeness. I already feel large and cumbersome, belly feels so stretched, hips are achy etc. I worry about things getting a lot worse and the time dragging by...

SoonToBeMrsDTS · December 2011

It feels forever away (although I'm closer to 18 more weeks). We don't have that much to do since we already have almost all of the baby stuff we need. We are going to paint the guest bedroom and get a new crib but I'll probably wait to pull all the baby stuff out until 36w.

bellablue2 · December 2011

Yes! Since I have also had such a friggin hard time this pregnancy, I feel like it should already be April! I cant stand that I am only barely halfway done! I just want to meet my sweet baby girl already!

FusionLMT · December 2011

I think it will start to feel closer once it is the new year and the holidays are over. Then there really won't be anything to focus on except for the baby coming. Third tri is going to drrrrrrrag though, so not looking forward to that.

Tambcat · December 2011

I feel like time is starting to go really fast now!

Yah! I always feel like I am so far behind everyone in time, a/s appointment, feeling kicks, everything. Then I remember a lot of these ladies are 23 or 22 weeks. I am not even 20 yet...right there with ya, due date buddy lol

countdowntolockdown · December 2011

I think time has gone by fast, and I think it's going to slow down now because of Winter. Winter in Milwaukee lasts FOREVER! January and March are the months that never end. So, I think it feels just about right.

I'm praying that I make it to April. For some reason, I really don't want a March baby...

sathe · December 2011

I was feeling that way till my appointment this morning. When the Dr said I will ser you in 4 weeks then agter that appointment it will be every two weekss We were talking about hospital registration and scheduling my induction and it msde me think I am running out of time.

devious1031 · December 2011

17.5wks to go and it still feels SO far away!

laf10 · December 2011

I'm kind of stuck in the middle. When I think I found out I was pregnant in August, it seems like time has flown by. But each week seems to drag as my ticker is waiting to change. Smile

But I do agree that April seems SO far away. I think once we get to 2012 though, it'll feel a lot closer, at least for me.
