I think my luck has run out ladies. While I wouldn't say the last 34 weeks of my pregnancy have been easy by any means, I have definitely been fortunate enough to have manageable symptoms. But now, between the daily heartburn that generally starts by noon, the fact that it's almost too painful to walk, and adding in what has been feeling recently like the lo is trying to claw/punch/kick her way out of my tummy has made the next six weeks seem like forever rather than just around the corner.
Has anyone else experienced a total 180 of their symptoms? Either for better or worse? Little vent session for anyone who wants to join in!
Re: Total 180 of symptoms?
Lately, I'm finding myself more and more exhausted after the smallest of tasks, hip/back pain that won't quit, holy heartburn...and sometimes I can sleep forever while others I'm wide awake at 3am. And dealing with constipation is a nightmare. I figure we are so close though, our babies are only getting bigger ...it's bound to happen! Some days I push through it and end up feeling better half way through the day. Other days I feel like I can't go on and want to cry. For sure, I'm slowing down which is hard to accept. When I do feel good I know I over do it which doesn't help...but I feel like I need to take advantage of my time and get stuff done!
Yes!! I have been very lucky to have a fairly easy pregnancy so far. Now at 34 weeks I'm miserable! My feet are huge and swollen and hurt, my back hurts, my hips hurt, I can't sleep. I can't breath, I can't bend over. My vajayjay is sore (I don't know why). My boobs hurt. I burp all the time now?? I think I'm having BH and those are starting to be painful or at least annoying. Oh and I can't keep up with anything now! I have list everywhere at work and home becuase I just don't know what I'm supposed to be doing anymore! I also don't know how I'm supposed to have energy for labor if I can't sleep?!
