Share your "still pregnant" melt downs!

in March 2014 Moms
Totally stealing the idea from our beautiful MOOB's!

Have you had any melt downs lately about still being KU??

I'm set off by the smallest things these days...just trying to put on pants is exhausting and last time I couldn't get them on I bawled my eyes out.

I'm 38 w 2 days...so I could still have a few weeks to go. Which sounds like an eternity.

    I'm glad I'm not the only 38 weeker begging LO to come out. I've recently started to get swollen feet/ankles and none of my shoes fit and I'm not allowed to wear flip flops to work. None of my pants fit either so I've resorted to a pair of yoga pants that I've washed a thousand times.

    I'm 38+4 weeks and I'm a complete basket case. I don't even like myself at this point. I had a nice little cry fest last night and althought the hubby was tired and his back was killing him he said " it'll be fine, don't worry" and fell fast asleep. I honestly considered kicking him out of the bed... Literally...
    In the floor. Ugh!

    None of my maternity clothes fit (my belly hangs out), I yelled at my sister for texting "baby day?" For the 5th day in a row and cried this morning after today's first bout of contractions turned out to be gas. 39 wks tomorrow.

    I'm 39w4d and I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm ready to move on and start the next chapter. The last major breakdown was in L&D tuesday when they said my water hadn't broken and the one before that was 2 Fridays ago when they said the horrible contractions coming 2-3 mins apart weren't doing a damn thing. I'm not stepping a foot back in that place unless I'm ready to push or they are kicking him out.

    40+1 & going slowly insane.  I cry at the drop of a hat, I thought that was just me - I'm so glad other people are in the same boat!  I feel resigned to being induced on March 24 & am allowing myself to get really discouraged, which I really need to nip in the bud!

    I cried to my sister on the phone the other day about not being able to use sex to make my cervix dilate. Because obviously semen is the ONLY way to make a cervix dilate. So the next reasonable assumption is that I will be pregnant forever.

    I just cried over it raining. We were supposed to take pictures today. Probably my last weekend to do it, and I figured everything was ruined.DH just took off Thursday and rescheduled! Let's hope I make it to 39 weeks!!

    38w 2d-

    I had an absolute conniption when we ran out lucky charms the other day. My awesome DH went out and picked some up and also brought back donuts. Ahhh I love that man.

    Late pregnancy is really depressing me. I can't move and I feel like I'm never going to pop this kid out. It's honestly starting to make me bitter toward the world, lol.

    Doc said she is doing good and can come any time now so I'm doing every natural thing in my power to make optimal conditions for her to arrive! RRLT, primrose oil, yoga, sex, essential oils. Hoping tomorrow's full moon will bring it on!!

    Hang in there friends!!

    I'm tired of the BH/contractions lasting about an hour and going away. Let's get this show on the road. I'm 39w3d. FTM so I know it's entirely possible I could have 2 weeks+ to go, but man I'm ready.

    I'm 39w5 and I am so tired of feeling like my hips are going to break in half when I get out of bed in the middle of the night. Also, tired of the gas pains psyching me out...
    Exactly this!

    Yep! Can't wait until I don't have to mentally prepare myself for the hip pain each time I want to get up.

    Please, steal my post idea! I'm so sorry I only included MOOBs! I definitely should have included M14s pregnant mamas, especially since we're just halfway through March and there's still lots of babies to be born!

    40 + 3 or 4.... Trying not to dwell on the plus. I hurt every time I move and peeing is just ridiculous. I cried last night because I didn't want to do anything but dh and our friends kept bugging me and threatening to carry me out of bed. Jerks!

    I haven't had a sob fest yet but have found myself getting really disappointed and sad - the Dr alluded to inducing 4wks ago due to BP, which I didn't want to happen but I got it in my head that our LO would be here soon. Four weeks later, fullterm, and no sign of baby coming anytime soon. However, there have been 2 hospital trips, initiated by my Dr in his office during appts in which he anticipated me being induced, just for me to be sent home as well as multiple nights of contractions that go no where. I am able to keep my BP juuuuuust under where it needs to be to not be induced but only barely..... modified bedrest is getting taxing and I don't even need to say anything about carpal tunnel, insomnia or hip pain. Le sigh. I'm just focusing on how happy DH and I are that LO made it to fullterm and what a blessing that is!

    40+3 as well. Looking at a Tuesday night induction (I'm finally at peace with this). Definitely wanna cry over the "peeing" situation and constant severe urge/pressure with nothing coming out!!!! I have even decided that I have 2 or 3 bladder compartments that empty individually depending on how far forward I lean forward when peeing (and trying not to fall off the toilet!!)

    38 weeks + 3 days and I don't just cry because I hurt and I'm swollen, or that my maternity clothes don't fit. I cry because I'm bored out of my mind and it's not fair that my DH gets to have his last horrah before our c section Friday. I want to go out, I want to live it up. But no. I'm huge and swollen and nothing is fun anymore. Wahhhhhh!!!

    I'm 38 w 6d. Not really uncomfortable at all, but definitely frustrated that there is no labor progress at all. MH and I are headed to Disneyland tomorrow to walk around and see if we can jump start this thing.

    This part of being pregnant is my least favorite thus far. Also, I'm a dumbass who signed up to work until the end - which seems impossible right now since my hormones and the incessant unproductive contractions make me hate everyone and everything.

    SO. OVER. IT.

    I got mad at DH because he used reason and logic on me (I want to go bitch our our neighbors for parking like assholes even though it doesn't really effect us and we can get in and out of the driveway fine). CAN'T I TAKE MY FRUSTRATION OUT ON SOMETHING, PLEASE?

    Lurker here, but I'm 41 weeks today and miserable so I'll play. I have ugly cried after my last two appointments where the doctor told me I was still 0 cm dilated. As a bonus, at my last appointment they confirmed that my baby is still sitting pretty high (-2 station). 

    I have another appointment scheduled tomorrow at which my doctor said we would talk induction. However, we're expecting a big snow storm and it's pretty likely that my office will close. At this point, I honestly don't know which is worse: going in and being told I still haven't progressed yet, or not having the appointment at all.

    My OB is going to be gone all this week. And I cried because LO absolutely has to make it to 3/24 for my RCS. I am completely panicked that I could end up with whoever is on call.

    Can you get out of it? I signed up to work until the end too, but I had a similar meltdown to yours. I talked to the right people and they made it possible for me to leave early. I was so grateful. Maybe try that on Monday?
    I committed to working til the end too. I'm kicking myself now for it though. I'm sure I could get out of it, but I don't want to take any time away from what I'd have with LO.

    I feel like I'd be so much less stressed if I didn't have to go back though. Ugh!

    I had a middle of the night meltdown. My nose and throat are congested and dry at the same time. I blew my nose with saline and it blew through to my ear and was so painful! I'm so sick of not being able to sleep because I can't breathe or my breathing is noisy. Humidifier, saline, tea, Popsicles, water, benadryl, breathe right strips, ack! It's all BS! But it's a new day today. Just thought I'd share my still pregnant meltdown.

    Definitely had a breakdown today when I realized that the beautifully timeable contractions I've had completely disappeared.

    Really trying to avoid being induced due to BP issues and was hoping I was going to go on my own...

    C'mon LO, you have one week to get this show on the road !!!!

    + @wearebirds - Sorry for not trimming the post. I'm mobile and life is impossible right now.

    I feel a lot like wearebirds does. I don't want to lose a moment of mat leave. That said, I was able to strike a deal. They are going to let me work from home Tuesdays and Fridays from here on out. Just this was enough to make everything seem do-able. My boss even said we can reassess if things go over. Hallelujah!
