Almost there, help me through the last week!!!!

I've never posted on this board I'm usually on another bump board, I just need help getting through this last week!!!!!! Pregnancy is beautiful, but I'm so unimpressed with myself with weight gain this pg, swelling (a lot from sodium junk food tonight), and just being so big... I feel huge and unattractive and keep waiting waiting for something to happen at 39 weeks 2 days. I feel blessed to have a healthy toddler and a beautiful healthy baby here at any time, but I'm so sick of being pregnant, the pressure and forceful baby kicks are more painful this time around, being tired, heartburn, and tummy aches. I feel like I'm never full these past few weeks, I don't know if that's Normal or just this pregnancy if baby its bigger, but it makes me feel out of control not being able to have a meal and just feel satisfied!!! DH is the best everyone around me is supportive, I just need some advice from peopple who are going through all this stuff too. Ive felt nervous and anxious for weeks now waiting, being a little nervous about labor and delivery, having concerns and hoping breastfeeding goes good this time around.... I'm not this wrecked all of the time, but of course this hits me in the middle of the night after I get up to go to the bathroom for the millionth time and feel like a swollen semi truck!!! Thanks for the late night rant

    You are in the homestretch now! Try and stay positive and think of the beautiful reward you are getting. I know it is hard. I only have 24 days left and too feel everything you are feeling. I can't imagine 24 more days of it. I think what has been so hard for me this time is because it had been so long since I was pregnant the last time (12 yrs) and I am so much older now. I just try to keep remembering that it will all be worth it. T&P's for you!

    I totally understand! I am currently 38 weeks and 4 days. Its brutal getting out of bed a zillion times a night! (ok I'm exaggerating!) This is also my first and the LO loves to stretch out and makes it so uncomfortable at times.
    Cramps have started and I keep waiting for it to get worse! However it doesn't which I am also happy about! I know the LO has at least another week to keep cooking.
    So I just take really long baths, relax, and just try to wrap up those last minute paperwork before the LO arrives.
    Hang in there! It could be happening at any time!

    Word of advice, stop counting those days.  Women can and do go to 42 weeks.  Your due date doesn't really mean anything at the end of the day.  Get comfortable with that idea.  You'll drive yourself crazy if you don't. 
    yea sorry hunni...but counting the weeks/days make it feel like its taking forever. lol i was doing the same thing. believe me...your time is coming....try to enjoy the little things of pregnancy (which i know right about now your like "there are none" lol)..but still try to relax some, WE ARE ALMOST THERE! <3  :)>- :-*

    Hope you can relax all week!! Being pregnant in the heat is just miserable and I can understand that you're ready for it to be over. Good luck to you and your family.
