WARNING-I just want to complain a minute

nina8381 · September 2014

So, I know it's not what people want to read, and I hate when people just complain and complain on fb. But come on ladies, we are 8-9 months pregnant. Everything hurts! And I feel the need to share that with the world. I refrained from posting on fb, cuz at least here I know someone has got to understand!! Anyone else want to whine a minute? Please post! We share your pain!!!

Justabean3 · September 2014

YES I hurt every where and I have only gained 25, I feel like I have gained 100 and at 5'2 he has ran out of room!

People look at me all sad and feel bad.. 17 more days and I am SO ready!!

Justabean3 · September 2014

- I was going to post another picture and decided not too. I clicked out of it with my phone and it did it anyway

bitsybubbles7 · September 2014

I only have 12 days left and I gained waaaay more this time around than with my first. I hear ya!

Jennyc00 · September 2014

I have 3.5 weeks until being induced at 39 weeks. The past few days I've felt increasing menstrual like cramps and back pain ;;(( sucks!! My emotions are out of control! I skip the being pissed off phase and go straight to sobbing. And I wake up every night and can't go back to sleep for hours. Last night I was up for FOUR hours! And I'm getting more and more anxious about being a ftm and this huge responsibility and being able to emotionally handle the transition. I really could use some serious Xanax chill pill IV drip at this point. Oh well. Hang in there ladies. At least we have here to vent.

Justabean3 · September 2014

I think too it isn't even how much you have gained specifically. I felt better with my first when I gained 50 than this one and I weighed less getting pregnant this time. But my belly is way bigger than any other pregnancy. It feels like it is literally going to explode

vrj0522 · September 2014

Yep. Completely uncomfortable now. I feel like this baby is going to rip through my belly at times from how hard she pushes on it. Just over 3 weeks to go.

rosalie12 · September 2014

About 4 weeks to go until I'm induced. Back and groin pain all day that gets worse laying in bed. And then on top of being sore, up all night peeing teaspoons worth of pee and trying to get rid of heartburn. DH is snoring so loud right now and I'm debating smothering him with a pillow.

silliegirlie143 · September 2014

DH keeps encouraging me to buy adult diapers and not worry about the tsp of pee... I tell him to suck a dick

My heartburn makes me puke in my sleep and it burns so bad it wakes me up

I can't fit any of my own shoes (I wear DH's tennis shoes to work) and now I hear some women's feet never go back down in size?!

My bra gives me heartburn during the day and it's not a pretty sight to go bra less when you're sporting a pair of EE's...

My ankles swell so much I swear the skin will burst any second

********

How's that for some venting? I could keep going but sitting upright makes my tail bone hurt

mamachelsea · September 2014

Anytime I get a chance I'm gonna! Not only am I super pregnant...my PUPPPs rash has been getting worse everyday. I've had it bad for a week now and it feels like an eternity. I am so sad that I have to deal with this added discomfort of pregnancy. I'm sad that my boobs are covered in rash and sad that I am now not looking forward to breast feeding as I know I'm going to be so uncomfortable. I feel like a crazy person and had 3 crying fits today, alone, in a cold shower.

Hang in there ladies, we are so close.

krazyinsane · September 2014

I'm so sick of DH telling me how miserable I look... He's been doing it for over a month now.
"Yes, dear, your giant son is killing me from the inside....now STFU and YOU make dinner and deal with our other three kids' attitudes for a little bit. Oh, that's right they don't give YOU an attitude, that's saved for Mommy." /:)

I truly am more miserable now than I have been towards the end of my other pregnancies but I just am chalking it up to G-d helping me KNOW I'm done having kids... This is my fourth and they've all been c-sections.

2 weeks and 2 days before big boy (he's a LOT bigger than his sisters....and if he's not over 8 lbs (the girls were 7.7, 7.14, and 7.9) I'm going to be SHOCKED!!) is out!!!!

atraveller · September 2014

Oh I hear ya all!

I have to walk only now and never have enough time in my work day to get out for what is a much longer exercise jaunt then when I could still jog - so only getting exercise a few times a week (tough when you were doing it every day).

My stomach feels huge and at 5'1" don't think the baby has any more room and I've gained way more than I thought I would despite eating healthy and exercising. I find myself huffing and puffing just doing simple tasks like going up and down the stairs.

I haven't really dropped and so acid reflux and heartburn is out of control, literally - burning and making me feel like I will throw up sometimes. I take a pepcid once a day and am still popping tums all day like its candy. Whenever I bend over, the acid kicks in double time. My metabolism slowed down suddenly and constipated every day now.

My feet and ankles are always swollen and basically wear flip flops everywhere which don't have much support, so my feet kill me whenever I stand for long periods of time. And my sinus swelling gets worse and worse every night - so that my sleep is interrupted regularly now.

I have 17 days to go and my doctor says my cervix is still closed - so I assume that means no effacement and she said no dilation - so now I'm worried I won't dilate or efface and will have to be induced and I'm terrified of Pitocin (after having a drug induced scenario after my delayed miscarriage - I am worried about what drugs will mean in terms of contractions).

And full time work is busier than ever...of course.

How's that for some complaining - boy that felt good

.

soontobehosford - Sorry about the PUPPS. Have you tried Pine Tar Soap? If not, I highly recommend it - wash with it twice daily. It smells strong like a campfire (but you can use a scented soap after you wash with it) but it helped my PUPPS a ton! Also - I take zyrtec every other day ( to help with itching). Every other day, because my PUPPS calmed down after using the pine tar soap -but when I was taking it daily - it took the edge off the itching.

CubanPinky · September 2014

Sotho girl · September 2014

At 35 weeks I wonder how this baby can possibly still be able to grow. I'm only 5'0'' and started off at 98 lb. How can there be possibly more room in there.
Her kicks are getting so strong now they make me stop in my tracks. She also loves to use my bladder as a trampoline.
I have 5 more weeks to go and it seems so far away, yet I'm also starting to get nervous and anxious about being a FT mom.
I feel like I'm always complaining to DH and feel bad, so thank Goodness for you ladies.

Eastie156 · September 2014

This baby is doing a constant tap dance (ok, head dance) on my bladder. It's annoying. I've gained less with this pregnancy than with DS (DS was almost 50 lbs gained and this time under 10 lbs) and I feel so much worse this time. She's a constant mover and shaker and it's painful

[Deleted User] · September 2014

I woke up with every 2 hours last night to pee. New record for me. Twas awful.

Dani0329 · September 2014

Justabean3 · September 2014

Peeing- ugh

I swear it takes me just long enough to get comfortable enough to need to get up to pee .. Then the process starts all over

Justabean3 · September 2014

@Sotho girl‌ that is me. I am 5'2 and started out at 105. I am 127 now and I don't know how my stomach will stretch anymore!! I am all baby this time and I feel like I might explode. Plus the baby is measuring larger than either of my other babies.

My first one I was 160 and far less miserable when I had him.

Sotho girl · September 2014

@Justabean3‌ I'm sure you'll be okay, our bodies know how much they can handle and if your dr is happy with how much your little one is measuring, then all we can do is just sit and wait. Not long to go though.

mamachelsea · September 2014

@atraveller‌ thanks! Yeah, I have an extremely severe case. I researched the hell out of it and have gone thru 3 bars of pine tar soap in a week and a half. Unfortunately nothing is helping. The only real break I get is being in the shower. I just sit around half naked with cold towels all over me

Wah wah waaaahhh lol.

@soontobehosford - I'm sorry - having dealt with it - though not as severe, I really do understand. Good news is it should go away after you deliver. Hang in there. I know its easy for me to say, since my case was much more mild - but relief will be with you soon.

andrieya · September 2014

2 weeks left. I hate everyone at work.

gooberdoofus95 · September 2014

On top of all the regular discomforts that comes with having your body hijacked for 9 months, I miss sleeping on my tummy. I'm gonna cut a hole in the bed next time!!! I haven't been able to eat eggs in 34 weeks and the same thing happened with my first pregnancy and I love eggs!

Then last night I decided to not sleep with any panties on because it's getting harder to bend over to pull them back up every hour that I have to get up and pee, so DH thinks that this is some secret way or Morris code that I want sex. Well LO was totally on my side this time and at the perfect moment let out a very nice fart and DH turned over and I'm like yeah not so very sexy now! I love him to death and he has been a real trooper through all this but as hard as it is to get sleep of any kind the last thing I want is to be woken up at 3am for sex! Other than that sleeping with no panties was simply amazing!!!!

I hope everyone feels better soon and most definitely the ones with medical problems such as rash, yeast infections, hemroids, vericrous veins, ect!!

I sent DH an email to whine today. I've been getting more BH plus period like cramps throughout day, getting a cold, back and feet hurt while being on my feet all day, increased heart burn today, and basically an entire pregnancy feeling nauseous/getting sick.
I'm over feeling nauseous.. I'm ready but know I have another 5 weeks but hoping to go early..wishful thinking. I want to feel better.
Ok whine over.
Sorry to all you ladies who are also uncomfortable, tired, in pain, and just over it!

I swear I get a cold every time at like week 38-39

Oh I know. I have GD this time and have had lots of u/s. I'm not honestly worried about his weight or my weight. It just feels impossible

Nuriya929 · September 2014

My first time and I lost weight only to gain it back during this pregnancy. Not mad just a little disappointed because I'm close to 300lbs and I feel all the work done before was in vain. :-<
Other than that the heartburn is ridiculous and the constipation is unreal. 13 more days to go. And I'm terrified!!
