Running out of room!

TheAnalyticalMommy · January 2014

I'm nearly 35 weeks pregnant and 5'3" and now i feel like my little one is running out of space! This is my second and he is already bigger than my first was when he was born. When i sit up to work at a computer i feel like i'm crushing him and he pushes really hard on my ribs and hip bones. Is anyone else experiencing this? I feel like i always here "you can't hurt the baby" but i can't shake this feeling that i'm crushing him when i sit up straight vs leaning back. Please tell me i'm crazy!

I actually feel the same way with running out of space! I'm almost 33 weeks and I'm 5'8"... But anytime I sit down, I feel like I'm squishing him!! Haha I'm not actually worried I'm hurting him at all, I'm just extremely uncomfortable. Last night, he was kicking my ribs so much, they're actually sore today. It's going to be a long several weeks ahead!

33 weeks and 5'2"...I feel ya! And he always manages to get the hiccups when I'm sitting down. He's head down and so they're like awkwardly low abdominal twitches. It can only get more fun from here!

I feel like I'm going to explode every day. 5'4 and 32w3d. I don't know how there's possibly anymore room for him to grow!

I hate trying to bend over to clean up after my toddler. I get the same stupid fears that a lot of others do.

I'm 32wks and 5'2. I am really hating sitting here lately. But when I do sit down, I sit for a loong time b/c I can barely pull myself up. Really the only somewhat comfortable position for me is lying on my side, although my arms usually go completely numb. This is my fourth, and nowhere near big as my first, who weighed 10lbs, but still it's getting pretty cramped. And I keep feeling him pushing on my bladder, not sure if it's his hands or feet.

I hear ya! I' m barely 5'3" and 37 weeks. Hate sitting down because his foot seems permanently wedged under my ribs and I get short on breath. My pelvic bones are starting to feel really bruised too. Counting down the days. Ready to feel more comfortable

I'm only 4'11" and 31 weeks, so my tummy is basically all baby. My bump extends all the way up to under my boobs, so at this point even wearing a bra makes me feel like I'm digging into her (particularly when sitting). I have a desk job where I need to sit most of the day so it's been pretty uncomfortable. Also if I need to bend over (particularly while sitting), the top of my thighs feel like they're pressing on the bottom of my bump. I also get the crazy paranoid worries like I could be squishing her or hurting her, particularly when I bend over, despite the multiple assurances from DH and my OB (yes, I asked, lol) that she'll make all the room she needs and while it might be uncomfortable for me it can't hurt LO.
