So Tired of Pregnancy

March2013FTM · March 2013

This is really starting to wear me down. I'm constantly on the verge of tears at the idea of being pregnant. I already suffer from anxiety pre-pregnancy and this is killing me. Despite this, and gallbladder issues, my DR will still not induce me. I see him Tuesday when I'll be 39W1D and a couple weeks ago he said he'd consider an "elective" induction.

I'm a wreck, but I can't get him to see it. It's more than just pregnancy woes... so tired of this.

You'll wish the baby was back in your belly once he comes out. Try to relax.

Hang in there...I suffer from anxiety as well and since being off any kind of meds it has flared up big time during this pregnancy. Even though I am a STM, my anxiety has gotten worse towards the end of the pregnancy. I was trying to make it until this last week at work and each day I didn't know how I was going to drag myself to work because I felt so terrible. I literally have had to take it day by day now. I would call your doctor and try to go in and see him tomorrow instead of waiting until Tuesday and emphasize the issues you are having even if you have talked about them before. Thoughts and prayers for you.

This... Having an outside baby brings its own anxiety, especially if you're a control freak like I am.

When I was pregnant with DS I would have NEVER thought this would turn out to be true- sure enough, I did. I am super uncomfortable right now but trying not to wish my way out of this pregnancy, but rather enjoy it since it will (fingers crossed) be our last. Hang in there!!!

I have my up and down days too and it IS hard being pg. Especially as pg as we are! Remember too that we are getting our last surges of hormones with labor coming so the hormones are going to make us feel emotionally and physically hostile

I'm sorry you're having a bad day! Just remember it's coming much much sooner than later!

Im from the feb board and lurking while trying to get lo to sleep. If it makes you feel any better, i felt the same way. I was miserable. They delayed my induction by one day due to the massive blizzard we got and i was a huge mess when they told me, i was hysterical cause i was sick of being pregnant. Funny how things work out, lo came on her own on the original day i was supposed to be induced. I was 41 wks and 1 day. I love not being pregnant and wouldnt wish she was back inside, even with the sleepless nights. Hang in there, once your lo is here you will completely forget how much you hated the end. I did anyhow. I swore up and down i would only have one baby. But now that she is here i would do it again in a heartbeat. Moral of the story, hang in there!

See I suffer from extreme anxiety, and I disagree with this. I felt like I was dying when I was pregnant with DS, and thankfully I was induced at 39 weeks, it was the best thing ever for me. I was very happy to not be pregnant anymore! Same thing applies this time. I'm convinced I'm going to die from being pregnant don't ask me how, and I'm very ready for it to just be over with so I can quit sstressing.

My LO is here and came a week before his due date and I couldn't be any happier not being pregnant. Granted, like the PP said actually having the baby does come with its own anxieties and constant concerns. Heck even right now I'm waiting on a call back from the pediatrician regarding a possible cold LO has. This is the second time I've called her in panic mode. The last time it was because he hadn't had a bowel movement in like 12 hours. Then about after an hour within getting off the phone with her, he gave us a bowel movement that made up for the ones he missed. LOL.

All that being said, pregnancy was horrible for me. I do not...and likely will never miss being pregnant. However I am grateful for what this pregnancy has brought me. :-)

Hang in there hun....LO is coming soon.
