Anyone else feel....
Really uncomfortable when LO moves around? Sometimes it hurts so bad I want to cry. I love feeling him move so I know he is ok, but at the same time it can be super painful.
Also I know that things could be much worse, but for the last week or two I have been feeling really awful. Between the heartburn, the cramps, the hip, leg and back pain, return of morning sickness and complete exsaustion I don't know how I am going to make it though another two months of this. I also stopped working in september (I was a nanny and was replaced for the school year) and am going crazy sitting at home. I feel like time is standing still and December is forever away.
I know, I am a cry baby and need to suck it up - but knowing I'm not alone would be nice.

Re: Anyone else feel....
You are not alone! I could have written that all myself. LOs movements don't "hurt" me but they can be uncomfortable when she starts doing flips and stretching out from one side to the other! Keeps me up a lot at night which sucks cuz I already can't sleep very well...
I too have really really bad heartburn to the point of limiting my appetite...super bad leg cramps, lower back pain, and complete exhaustion... AND my shower is this weekend, my sis and her hubby +2 babies are staying the weekend, I can't find the energy to clean!!
I feel like a cry baby too and hate saying anything to DH about not feeling up to cleaning, going anywhere etc... He loves when I accompany him on errands etc but lately I just wanna stay home after work and sit on the couch like a big lazy bum!!!
Over 60% of her movements are painful to me.
I had to switch to a stronger heartburn med, but that is helping a ton on that end.
The hip pain is increasing again as well.
You are not alone.

You are definitely not alone. I have good days and bad days. It isn't really painful when my LO moves, but it does get pretty uncomfortable. I also have some pretty bad sciatic pain and I feel like my lungs are being crowded out, so breathing can get pretty uncomfortable too. Overall, I have had a pretty uneventful pregnancy so far, so I feel bad complaining too much. Not much longer to go for any of us though. We can do it!
You are SO NOT alone!!!! and I don't feel like I get much sympathy from people yet, only being 32.5 weeks -- does that kick in like the last month???! I often just cry in the bathroom or in my car on my commute because of the serious discomforts
Yes, baby hurts when she moves -- I, too, love feeling her and it's reassuring, but not the most pleasant sensation often - and it seems to get worse as she's now fattnening up --- I've even wondered if I have enough amniotic fluid, but doctor's office has never expressed concern about that and I imagine it's all in my mind to worry about that detail at the moment
Like PP said, you're really not alone. I have been out of work before pregnant but I don't feel pregnant forever. Also, I can have my feet up and drink as much water as I can to keep myself hydrated and pee as many times as I can to prevent PTL as much as possible. I know if I'm at work, I am sure I cannot do all these.
I feel painful on RLP but not from our LO. I can feel more discomfort now from his movement as he grows bigger. I have told DH a number of times that I am happy to know he's ok from his movements but I really feel uncomfortable when he moves a lot at night. It's really catch 22!
DH also like me to run errands with him and I would in the past but now I'll let him go by himself. My ankles and feet are getting super swelling than ever. Even my nurse has to say something about them at every MFM appointment. My GI tract also get worse as my uterus growing bigger and have to eat small meals as possible. Needless to say, the growing uterus also makes me more shortness of breath and exhausted.
