I want this baby OUT! (who can relate?)

star173 · December 2011

Most of you, I'm sure. I've got just over 3 weeks left, and I don't know how I'm going to make it. I'm tired, sore, peeing every 5 seconds, worn out from doing nothing, and it feels like I have a bowling ball between my legs. He better come early!

How are you feeling? Vent and complain here all you want.

jasieandry · December 2011

Very, very ready. I caught a cold off DH and being 9 months pregnant and sick and having your husband sick kinda sucks :P WAAAAAAAAAH ok I'm done. Thank you for the invitation to complain

Hopefully both our lo's will come soon

bigbear · December 2011

You poor thing. I know how you feel. I'm beyond uncomfortalbe and in constant pain. But somehow I just love her being in my belly and have the feeling I"ll miss it a lot when she's out. Sure I'll be extatic and busy enough when she's out but that kicking is quite something and I enjoy it and it makes all the other pains and aches easier to deal with. So that is what gets me through the day and I don't feel as miserable.

I'm ready to have an outside baby! I've got an internal on Tuesday, and although I know dilation/effacement don't mean much I'm hoping my OB will schedule my induction. Simply because I HATE playing the waiting game, wondering if LO will come today, tomorrow, or any time soon!

I am ready! Everybody keeps asking when I'm due and I feel like saying "I don't want to talk about it." I can't imagine several more weeks, ugh.

Dawn7233 · December 2011

I can relate! I'm def ready to get him OUT! I'm non-stop tired (yeah just fell asleep at my desk) I'm tired of peeing all the time, and I'm REALLY tired of people asking me how I'm feeling... I've been carrying this thing around for 9 months, how do you THINK I feel?!?!?!?!

I JUST posted this on the UO thread, but it definitely belongs here too.

If I read one more post telling other women how it's best to let baby cook, and labor will come naturally, and that of course you're uncomfortable but you should really just be patient, I'm going to scream.

I'm due in a matter of days, you can even count it in hours, and "uncomfortable" doesn't begin to describe it.

I can't walk. I can't eat anything because the acid reflux is unbearable. I can't sleep. My hips hurt like hell. My feet are swollen. My hands are swollen. My face is swollen. I can't put my own shoes on. I struggle to get off the sofa, out of cars, into cars, and up the stairs. I pee every 5 minutes, sometimes involuntarily. Someone clearly took a sledgehammer to my pelvis when I wasn't looking. I'm hot all the time. I'm constantly being kicked in the ribs. My maternity clothes are barely fitting me. I haven't had a decent bowel movement in who knows how long, and if one more friend texts me with, "had the baby yet?" I'm going to cut someone.

I'm done. D-O-N-E, done.

If I want to eat a jalapeno while jumping on a trampoline and sexing up the hubby, then that's what I'm going to do; and damn it, I should be able to do it without judgement.

TG I'm delivering two weeks from today...but I wish it were YESTERDAY. I'm so over being pregnant this time around. Just DONE!!!!

BabyTime01032012 · December 2011

Ha Ha! I am so ready! DH and I just had sex trying to bring on labor! And believe you, me, sexy is the last thing I feel like right now.

michnthecity · December 2011

I know I should be grateful because I've had very few complications. I have killer heartburn but I take something daily for that that's approved, but I don't enjoy being pregnant. I don't feel beautiful. I'm done. I am tired of people asking me how I'm feeling....so damn tired of talking on the phone with family members about how I'm feeling...I dread when the baby arrives and people start calling me. I HATE talking on the phone as it is, and to have the same conversation with 12 different people....feck. And if someone tells me I have a long way to go still, I think I will shoot them. I don't have a long way to go, I've been pregnant for 250 days. Thirty days left, if I go full term, is nothing.

Sascha3 · December 2011

I have mixed feelings. I really, really love feeling her in my belly and I have a feeling I am going to be depressed when that feeling is gone.

I am not worried about her cooking longer...she is due in 12 days, so I am sure she is fine. I am just having anxiety about having a real, live baby here! Don't get me wrong...I am beyond excited, but I am also nervous.

My doctor offered to induce 7 days early, which would enable my older daughter to be able to be here for the birth and would make things much easier on my husband with getting time off work, but I am struggling with the decision because I feel like it's all happening so fast now.

I'm definately there. The nausea has gotten to the point where I can't lay down for too long without being absolutely miserable. It's hard to be comfortable reclining because it makes me feel like I'm gonna puke. And when I'm sitting up, the only relief I get is by burping constantly. After the ER nightmare 2 nights ago, I'm just sitting here praying I don't throw up blood again and have to go back. I'm also hoping this is all pregnancy induced and that it'll go away once he's born. I don't want to have to deal with this with a newborn to take care of.

I've also definately got my waddle on. I have to walk slow wherever I go, and I have to take bathroom location into consideration wherever I go. At home, I guage whether or not it's worth it to get up, even for the bathroom.

I'm all for giving him every chance to be fully developed, but I'm so over being pregnant. I'll grin and bear it for now, but I'll probably go crazy if I get to 42 weeks without a baby in my arms.

Mama Jan · December 2011

I'm so so so done.

Diagnosed with GD at 10 weeks, on insulin since ~18 weeks (4 finger sticks and 2 belly shots per day). Major pain in my incision area through most of the pregnancy. Sleeping 3-4 hours total each night (not consecutive). Can't keep up with the boys. Can't cook without being wiped out for 2 days. Can't keep up with housework anymore. And now that he's dropped down I can't even sit comfortably.

I loved my previous 2 pregnancies. This one has been miserable from the start. Get this baby out of me.

Cinco · December 2011

I'm having lots of painful cramping and contractions, so I'd love to speed things up. I can't wait to get back to normal with my older two. I haven't exactly felt like the fun mom lately. This is the longest Ive been pregnant, so I'm wondering how much longer it will last. On the other hand, I am pretty terrified of having three! It will be utter chaos. Maybe she is smart to stay in the belly for a while longer.

jshf · December 2011

I'm actually starting to feel depressed because I feel like I should have already had the baby. I was 4cm 80% yesterday and contracting. Today I've had only a few contractions, but lots of discomfort and pressure in my pelvic area. I've been doing everything I know to bring labor on. But since my body isn't responding, I'm starting to wonder if I will have to be induced or if there will be complications for the baby. I keep imagining he will be stillborn if I don't feel him move. He's been a lot less active than before. I know I only have a few days until my EDD but he is supposed to be pretty big and I worry about him getting too big and needing a c-section. I am trying to enjoy being with DS and DH a little longer but I am just obsessing about DS2 and can't seem to feel happy. I hope this is just pregnancy hormones and will feel better soon!

anhg80 · December 2011

I can relate, but I'm still terribly nervous!

I just keep thinking if I could just sleep comfortably for a few hours I'd get back to enjoying this pregnancy. But I can't. My "maternity leave" (I'm a student, so it's really me just deciding to stop working) starts next week, and I CAN"T wait to be done driving. Hopefully I'll spend all Monday sleeping

And I do know I'll miss feeling her in me and all that. I guess that's why the last month of pregnancy is so hard - it gives you the motivation to push!

Lol, I feel the same way, but I have a ways to go. I read this to DH and my brother and I said, "See? I'm not the only one." :-D
