3rd Trimester

Ready for this to be over!! vent

so ready for my pregnancy to be over. I know they are all different but with my second I find it extremely hard to breath sitting and especially laying down! I feel like I'm suffocating. The best I feel is standing but my feet are HUGE! Also, I haven't been able to breath out of my nose in about 6months. I'm so frustrated at this point. Anyone else?

Re: Ready for this to be over!! vent

  • I totally am with you with the not-breathing-out-your-nose business.  I have become a mouth breather of the worst kind, lol!  And I still have 10 weeks to go!  It's really affecting my sleep, and I find my throat is dry all the time.  The Breath Right strips help some at night.  You might want to give them a try, if you haven't already.

  • I am with you! This is my second as well. The rational side is thankful for every week she stays in cooking the crazy hormonal side wants her out, like yesterday.
  • Yep I'm totally done. Almost 33 weeks now and like the poster above me said, I know and am grateful that he's still cookin and has 4 weeks to go till he's term, but I seriously want him out. I would feel extremely lucky if mister decided to make his grand entrance in 4 weeks. But being a FTM the odds are slim to none. Don't worry. I think we're all feeling it. Plus I'm super anxious to meet this little guy
  • Definitely. I can breathe out of my nose but I feel like I can't get a deep breath. I feel like I hardly move and I'm out of breath. It's driving me nuts.  If I sit up really tall or stand, I can breathe better but it still sucks.  My entire body is sore. My hips hurt. My feet hurt. My back hurts. I'm SOO done.  This is our third and definitely our LAST child!  No way am I doing this again. lol

    My pregnancy was seriously the easiest thing ever until about a week ago. I had no symptoms, gained essentially no weight, everything was perfect, then boom, here comes every adverse pregnancy symptom/complaint possible! Worst heartburn I've ever had, can't breathe, can't sleep, everything hurts, and I've gained more weight in two weeks than I have in 6 months! This is definitely the most precious gift, but ouch!
  • I hear you loud and clear!  I am 28 weeks, been on bed rest since 19, have aches and pains out the wazoo and a baby that loves sitting on my lungs.  My congestion is pretty bad too.  I used to feel bad about feeling this way, but it's only natural for us to get sick of all the physical and hormonal changes.  Crazy thing is, after baby gets here, we forget, and then do it all over again lol.
  • My first pregnancy was a breeze. I felt great! This pregnant I have been miserable! Sick if I don't eat enough! Sick if I eat too much! Haven't been able to breath out of my nose for months now! Back pain, leg pains, hip pains and swollen feet are just a few of my complaints! Now I have GD! I can't wait to meet my baby girl! Yay to being pregnant! It's all worth it in the end

    I've been here with my last pregnancy & it's incredibly difficult. Cry if you need to cry, take it easy & slow.

    You will make it, but you are also human. These last weeks are truly the gauntlet. Hang in there! >:D<

    Everybody told me that this was going to be great and that I was going to miss being pregnant (FTM) and all I can say is that I'm with you. I can't wait for this to be over. From being sick first and second trimester to the new issues that have cropped up in 3rd I'm ready for her to be here.

    I'm ready to sleep on my back for an extended period of time or even my stomach. Sleeping on my sides are killing my hips they hurt so bad. Also ready to have no heartburn been having it like crazy the last few days. Mostly I'm just ready to see him and hold him though.
  • Omg yes so over it. I'm almost 38 weeks. Can't breath, can't get comfortable, and have been contracting for weeks. I went a month early with my first and was hoping to go somewhat early with this one. I guess he just wants to cook. Ugh
  • I am with you. I am so uncomfortable. I had my first at 36 weeks and my second at 37 weeks. So this is the longest one of my life....okay so it's only two days after. Though, my husband thinks I can do everything still at this point. I am getting up four time in the middle of the night to just pee and because down their hurts a ton. Then, I get up with two toddlers who still don't sleep through the night as well. It makes me grouchy and tired. 

    I am so ready to be done. 
    Mom of 3 (Ginny 4 yrs old), (Miles 2 yrs old), and (Mason due June 15th) 
  • I am with you all I'm 27 weeks and i am ready to get this over. This is my second baby and i am having trouble breathing. I have severe allergies, asthma, chronic sinitis, and was just diagnosed gestational diabetic. I can't see at night and when I do fall asleep my 6 year old is up in the morning stating that sh eis hungry for breakfast. I take naps but my six year old wakes me to ask how does she look when she plays dress up. My husband is supportive with me taking naps and will take one with.me when he is off from work. I try to get my six year old to nap with me but she will either fall asleep or get up to play.
  • Oh man me too sweety. I have two girls almost 6 pounds each still cooking in there. I'm 36 weeks with the equivalent of a 12 pound baby. My whole body hurts. The bottom of my stomach has a big swollen lump from the stress of the weight. It's so tender I can hardly move. I can't breath for the life of me despite my babies dropping like crazy. Just gotta take it one day at a time I guess!
  • 9 weeks to go and I'm officially over it as well. My morning sickness hasn't gone away, if anything it's increased, I haven't gained more than 5 pounds so far and I feel like a blimp. I should be rejoicing that Oliver is so active/has the hiccups so frequently and I know I should be cherishing every little movement but lately they're making me feel ill. Most days I feel like he's going to hiccup/kick himself right out of me. I'm ready to have my body back, and have my precious baby boy in my arms. 
  • wow...I'm so with you!
  • I'm 32 weeks and cannot lay down for anything my body hurts badly second kid ready for her to evacuate
  • yes yes yes.me too!
  • I'm at 28w, FTM and totally over it! 

    As soon as my 3rd tri started my back went out and am having so many new aches and pains.  I guess I have just been lucky up until this point with little to no symptoms other than the weight gain.  I still have a ways to go but so looking forward to the end!  I feel huge and have no desire to go out and buy any more maternity clothes.  Just want to try to get the nursery done, take my infant classes at the hospital and go on maternity leave!!


    Pregnancy Ticker
  • me too! OMG! I need this to be over!!!!
  • SAME HERE. Second pregnancy. My first was so much easier. I mean, I remember being uncomfortable towards the end, but nothing like this. I take about 4 baths a day, because it's the only thing that helps. When he moves around in there, it hurts! I hate that I don't like the feeling like most moms. My hands hurt and are so swollen all the time. Feet too. Legs ache. Heaviness and stabbing bladder pains constantly. Feel 'down' randomly too with this pregnancy. Super ready to have my body back, and feel normal again. It's hard to remember what that feels like! 3 weeks to go. Feels like an eternity. After my first, ppl asked, 'so, will you have a second? A third?' And I always contemplated a 3rd. But no. No more. I can't do it again.
  • Same here! FTM at 30 weeks. Everything was great until the 3rd trimester hit. It's been down hill from there. I can't breathe and it's so frustrating! I can't sleep since laying down makes breathing even harder to do! Caught a cold that I can't seem to shake. I am so over this! Would rather have my daughter in my arms. Ugh!
  • 34 weeks tomorrow and this has been extremely difficult since day one. First time was bad, but this time is worse by far. I pray and pray that he or she comes early, but not too early. I'm just trying to stay busy at work and not think about it. Because when I do think about how much longer I have to go, it just makes me feel so discouraged. Try and stay encouraged the best you can. Time will pass and this will be over soon and all those pains will disappear.
