Exhausted...ready for FMLA leave

I'm hoping its not just me that feels this way, but I'm at my witts end. I barely get any sleep, and on top of already having a about to be 7 year old, be a wife and a worker I'm beyond tired. To me it just feels like the weeks go by so slow. I'm going on 29 weeks, and boy am I ready to meet my little princess and see my feet lol.

    I feel you, I have just over a week left before beginning maternity leave and cannot wait! I not sleeping well every night and even if I do sleep well, I'm still exhausted during the day. The swelling has started which makes getting through a work day that much more difficult.

    I have one week left of work, and I dread coming here every day.  Sitting at my desk is not only miserable but painful as well.  I hate it, although I know the baby should cook a few more weeks it makes me want him to come sooner just because I know I won't have to come to work every day...

    I'm glad I'm not alone. I feel like I'm miserable towards everyone. I'm exhausted, swollen, huge and uncomfortable. I get no sleep, am still working (Next Friday is my last day) and just all out over it! Get this baby out! =)

    I am totally ready to be on leave, but I have decided to work until I go into labor... I want all the time I can get after he is here, and not use any of it before hand if it is not necessary.

    If you can take time off before without it affecting your time off afterward, do it. I was able to leave work at 37 weeks without it affecting any of my time off with the baby and it is so worth it so far.
