I want to be done being big!! (rant)

I'm just having one of those days, I am so tired of being big and fat and having everyone ask me if I'm almost done. No, thanks, I have two+ months left! And I've gained 20 pounds, which can is perfectly normal. I just want to go on a long run and do an ab workout. I know that sounds bizarre, but I am so tired of being big and uncomfortable! And I know I'm just going to get bigger.

    I'm in the same boat. Haven't gained much but I'm so over being big. Plus now walking is becoming uncomfortable. So I try to exercise using my stationary bike instead. It's better than nothing!

    same here! My belly is now pushing my underwire into my chest so I had to order a wire-free bra...and I was big enough pre-pregnancy that wire-free bras just didn't offer enough support. These last few weeks should be interesting...

    Yep I'm starting to get tired of my size. I gained a lot and I am 33 weeks. Even though I can postpone the whole vanity aspect, I'm just having a hard time lugging all this around and picking myself up from the couch or rolling out of bed. And all the BH contractions and painful kicks... It's getting old lol....
    Now I see what's hard about pregnancy. Up until now the symptoms were a walk in the park. The last stretch, that's where they get ya!

    I wish being pregnant was easy!!! It has been the hardest thing I have ever done! My body feels stuffed! I just want to feel normal again, 9 months is a really long time, along with certain family memebers whinging and complaining I never see them, I don't want to see anyone I've been so sick this whole time. But they make it all about them honestly enough! I think I'll be able to handle everyone once baby is here but crap I feel like I get pulled left right and centre and I really just want to be left alone. The next two months better be quick!! :D

    Totally agree. I've gained 21 pounds at 30 weeks and ready to get back to my normal size!

    I feel like a hot, sloppy mess! I've done so much work in my classroom the last two days and I always end up so sweaty. We've also had meetings in between work time and I definitely feel like the stereotypical pregnant lady.

    I also caught sight of myself in the mirror earlier and I just look so huge. I miss my cute little pregnant belly.

    Totally feel you!!! Ready to be back to prebaby body! (Which I didn't think was super awesome before, but looking back, it's really given me some great perspective!!!) love my old body.

    Haha I love this. I was never really thin before I got pregnant but now I'm really appreciating the waist that I did have. And I'm going to get it back! And then never complain again lol

    I'm so glad I'm not the only one feeling this way I recently weighed my self and I've gained about 30 lbs which for me is hard I've never been over 110 if I hadn't been at my inlaws I probably would have started crying. I'm so ready for baby to be here so I can't start working out again

    Yes. Yes. YES! I love my LO and I'm doing this all for her. But omg it's so hard! I hate my body atm, so many strange things are going on with it. My SO doesn't understand..he says I'm the only person that doesn't love my bump. I love what I'm doing, but it's made difficult when a photo is taken and he then zooms in and I look MASSIVE!

    Ahhh! I wanna run again! And meet my little girl!

    As someone who's battled their weight throughout adulthood, for me it isn't about the 20 lbs extra on the scale.
    But I totally get the feeling big and uncomfortable all the time. Even at my non-pregnant heaviest, I had some agility.
    I'm at the point where even walking can be cumbersome and climbing onto the recumbent bike at the gym is a chore. I look at the people lifting weights and running on the treadmill and wish it could be me. Plus the constant feeling of fullness that comes from having an actual human being occupying my insides . . .

    I don't really feel huge and uncomfortable yet, but I still have 9 weeks to go, so I know it's coming. I really just want to be able to wear normal clothes again!!

    As someone who has battled my weight since DS was born, I have to admit that it's been hard seeing the scale go up when I've tried my hardest to make it go down pre-pregnancy. Like someone else said, it's the lack of mobility that's getting to me now. I'm still working out (low intensity) and stuff, but I am feeling really large. Thank goodness this is just temporary!! I keep telling myself that unless I get pregnant again, I will never be this weight again. Helps me get through it!

    So glad I am not the only one feeling this one. I almost cried when I saw the number on the scale, I hate feeling like I am doing everything I can to stay healthy, and number is still going up. Feels hopeless!

    I lost 30lbs before I got pregnant. I was actually loving being skinnier than I had ever been. Now I've gained back 20 but I feel 3 times bigger. :( I'm waddling when I walk and I get winded just walking up steps. And I only have like 4 outfits that still fit! I just want to wear my miss me jeans again!! :((

    Oh my goodness I feel u!! I'm pregnant with twins and 32weeks. So I'm as big now as I was full term with my son. Ugh nothing is easy and bending down is so NOT easy. Now I'm on bed rest cuz contractions are starting. :/ I am nesting like crazy and just want to do some dishes, laundry, and go in a walk. Ugh. Thought bed rest might be nice but I have always been go go go and now I halted to a stop. I want to cook them a Lil longer but man oh man I'm so done.

    I feel the same way. I've just with in the last week started to get the "you're huge, are you having twins?" comments. So that's really not helping my self esteem.

    I'm so huge that I have to go to the bathroom every 20 mins - night times are just the worst pelvic pressure and constantly feeling like a head is going to fall right out of me.

    I went to the salon to have a pedi I can't even see the cute nail polish - I decided to tidy up below and make myself feel better , when I got out the shower and looked in the mirror it looks like I've attacked myself with garden shears - hair where it shouldn't be and no hair where it should :-( uugghhhh

    I AM SO over this! 6 weeks and counting
