How miserable do you feel?

kyleighdale1 · May 2015

Hey ladies, this month is flying by and if you haven't had your bundle of joy yet then he or she is coming soon!

I'm 39 weeks today and the past two or three days I feel like someone ran over me with an 18-Wheeler..not an exaderation. My back is killing me and earlier my stomach was hurting so bad I couldn't even sit up in the bath tub to wash my own hair.

Am I the only one feeling weak and miserable at as my pregnancy is coming to an end? Has anyone else had really bad abdominal pain to wear you cant function?

And am I the only one who is COMPLETELY over this pregnancy? Lol.

Me toooooo!! I'm only 37w3d though, so there's a ways to go....

You never know, you're full term so he/ she could be coming anytime now! I have felt absolutely amazing throughout this entire pregnancy until a few days ago. I couldn't imagine having weeks of feeling this miserable. I

Yes, me too! I have felt really good up until the last week, but now it's a struggle!

I'm actually 41w3d and still mostly conformable and content unfortunately. I wish I were uncomfortable and having contractions, maybe then I could've avoided an induction

I'm due tomorrow. I've been comfortable for the most part fortunately. Today, however, was a different story. There is just no room in there for LO anymore. I keep telling it that there is a lot more room out here but so far, nothing.

Baby has been pressing its butt out as far as possible. So my belly is killing me!!! I was in tears today. It hurts so much when LO moves. But I also still love feeling those little movements as reassurance.

Thankfully it won't be that much longer until we have these LO's in our arms. Hard to believe that May is almost half over!!!

I'm also 39 weeks today and have felt pretty good until now! Just so ready to hold this little guy and see his little face. And also to be done with my enormous swollen feet and all my aches and pains. Hang in there! Not much longer nOw!

I've had a pretty laid-back pregnancy, but the closer I get to 40 weeks the more miserable I am feeling. Body aches & crazy emotions. My poor DH - I cried over chocolate yesterday. Actual tears. 8-} The hormones are driving me crazy! lol

Hanging in there, but surprised to have so much nerve / sciatic pain in my lower back and butt. Will have random nerve zaps while I walk and it's so annoying / painful!

MrsWhiteToBe · May 2015

^^ same here with the sciatic pain. My left thigh is almost completely numb. Then a few days ago I broke out in this awful rash and the Drs don't know what's causing it. It's on my arms and belly but they said its not PUPP. Feet are painfully swollen. Stretch marks are starting to bleed. DH has a bit of a pregnancy fetish so he keeps saying how much he's going to miss my body once it's gone. IF YOU LOVE IT SO MUCH WHY DON'T YOU WEAR IT?

I have been doing well. I had my first membrane stretch & sweep yesterday at 38w5d and ever since then I have been a little run down. Lots of back pain, cramping and pressure - hopefully that means it's working? When I got the sweep done I was already 3cm and thin.

Regardless my doctor will not let me go past 40w so I'm excited that it's almost time!

I think we're all in the same boat by now. I'm 38 weeks tomorrow and I still have another week left of work after this one. I'm trying not to tap into my vacation days- but it's so tempting at this point. It's also hard knowing that as of tomorrow- the doc would do a Caesarian at any point. I want a VBAC- but it's hard to be patient.

LeaRose87 · May 2015

I'm 38 weeks and I went from being great and totally ok with being pregnant to miserable. I'm still working full time but my body just doesn't like it. Lol. A few hours in and my body aches head to toe and I'm so irritable. And then last week I developed a rash head to toe. I'm pretty sure it's pupps but my doc didn't say much when I pointed it out. Just recommended a Benadryl before bed. Which doesn't do a thing. I can't believe how badly I itch. I'm in tears it's almost painful. I want my little guy to stay in as long as he can but I'm so physically done I wld be quite alright with him showing early.

I'm 38 weeks and I'm so done with being pregnant.
I know that is so selfish to say or even think but, I'm human.
As of a few days ago I've been feeling miserable and anxious.
My body hurts. My hip aches, my rib hurts, I can't sleep and just pure exhaustion.
It's all worth it though, I cannot wait to meet my little princess.

Brieb33 · May 2015

38wks 6days and sitting up in bed wishing I was asleep!! I have the worst heart burn ever. It went away for a while when baby dropped and now here if is back again with a freaking vengeance. It's so bad I want to throw up! I just want to sleep!!! And yes, physically miserable over here too.

mrscimino914 · May 2015

I'm 40 wks 5 Days and I'm completely miserable false labor pains all the time and so moody I can't take it. I'm so tired of people asking did you have the baby??? Like no I didn't and I don't need to be reminded

MrsWhiteToBe · May 2015

I told my husband I'm miserable to the point where I feel like my body is just giving out. I read somewhere a while ago that the reason humans give birth around 40 weeks is because if it lasted any longer we would actually DIE. Our metabolism couldn't handle the extra workload. That's why animal babies are able to walk straight out of the womb and ours are pretty much helpless.

I'm 40+4 and I'm done. This is a week past what I went with my daughter. I'm so uncomfortable, been out of work for 2 weeks and now I'm not getting paid because I'm out of PTO. I have horrible reflux that comes just from drinking water.

My husbands friend just had her baby 2 weeks early and I'm so jealous. I just want this baby out now. I feel like a giant whale and my back hurts among 800 other things. So ready to be done.
