Anybody awake? I need a handhold please.

[incogneto]

I can't cope being pregnant anyway. Fucking every part of my body hurts, everything's pissing me off and my hormones are raging.

I feel so frustrated and fed up that I can't stop crying. I've been a bitch with DP all day and I feel so terribly guilty for being so snappy.

Sounds pathetic but I really just want to be comforted by somebody and tell me it's going to be okay

I should be glad that the end is in sight and that should be getting me through but I feel fucking worse than ever.

How long have you got to go? If you’re due next week then YANBU.

I'm 37+4, being induced on Saturday. I've had enough; everything is sending me over the edge. I feel like I'm going crazy

Lol, it’s the heat. Everything will calm down once the rain comes and you’ll feel better. You only have a few days left so spend some quality time with DP. Have a bath and get him to give you a foot massage.

You only have 3 nights left if it just being the two of you so enjoy them xx

Hopeful bump need someone to talk to

Thanks @Cafetierecoffee, will try to make the most of it

If it helps, I accidentally locked myself out of my house on my due date. I had to go to the police station to get them to help me!

@Cafetierecoffee oh my gosh sounds like a nightmare! Did you end up going overdue with DC?

Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, then it's not the end.

Seriously Op, you will be fine.

Wishing you all the best.

Yes, two weeks over and then I was induced. That was 21 years ago which can’t be right as I’m still only 38

I had to go to the police station and they helped me find a friend with a spare key to my house. Not sure if they’d do that these days.

hoof that is one hell of a name

Thanks @HoofWankingSpangleCunt

It's very stupid how something so small can make me so upset at the moment! This time I had tripped going upstairs with a glass of Ribena and it had gone all over my lovely white wall

I'm sure I will look back and laugh at this in the future!

You will be fine OP.

It will all be ok. I was late with both of mine but it's all just a memory now lol. I know it's tough at that end stage but the finish line is almost here!

I promise everything will be fine. Congratulations and look after yourself

You wait until you get those finger prints on the wall 😂😂😂😂😂

I guess you’re feeling huge and unco-ordinated. Also, if you can’t sleep at night then it’s nature’s way of preparing you for a newborn and night feeding. Oh, by the way, all babies are nocturnal. Don’t panic if little one sleeps all day and is awake all night.

@bombaygin I'm just thankful I'm being induced at 38. I don't know how I would cope with another possible 2-4 weeks of feeling like this!

Thanks for your kind words

@Cafetierecoffee yes I am bloody massive. I'm only just about 5ft 2 and he has been growing off the 90th centile throughout the pregnancy.. I am the size of a house!

Definitely have become more clumsy these past couple weeks

No experience to offer but can do a hand hold.

Thank you so much @Medicaltextbook. I really appreciate it ❤️

Spilt Ribena over white wall would pee me off too, and I'm not even pregnant.
Cheer up, it'll soon be over, and it will all be worth it in the end.x

Hand hold here. I wasn’t induced until 41 weeks and was the size of a house. Am only 5ft 3in and carried a big baby. To top it all off I broke a finger in the week before I was induced so I was a nice sight waddling off to a&e. Good luck OP, hang in there. If it makes you feel any better the worst is yet to come....and the best

I had twins, I was fucking huge!!!!

Some of my transgressions (to cheer you up 😉):

I made dh break into a building site one night because I had to suck a piece of brick, right now!!!

I walked (well waddled) around Sainsbury's with my skirt tucked in my knickers (no fucker told me until I got to the checkout 😠)

I got stuck in the bath, the only other person in the house was eldest ds (16) who had no option but to help me out, he said he was left traumatised by this 😵

I also got stuck in a paddling pool (I had horrendous spd and got in but couldn't lift either leg up to get out) at my neighbours house. Said pool had to be emptied with me in it

I regularly told dh I wanted to kill him (and I fucking meant it!) 😲

I felt soooo ill I cried every day 😪

All the best for your impending birth, it will soon be over

The problem is you know the end is in sight, it always makes things harder at the countdown. Hold on in there op, try to put your feet up and enjoy these last few days of naps and rest! Good luck

Oh it’s so frustrating and so uncomfortable when you’re that huge and just waiting! So intense. Hang in there! You’ll look back and make jokes about it before you know it. But in the meantime, you’re allowed to be hormonal to the max! It’s all going to be ok

Thank you lovely Mumsnetters for cheering me up ❤️

I do moan to DH but I know he doesn't truly understand how fucking exhausting and uncomfortable it is lugging a human around! And a big one at that.

Going to try to enjoy these last few days (if I can) before LO arrives

OP, you sound just like me! I am 37+5, and not coping at all! My baby is also measuring 91st percentile, and I feel enormous and horrid. I have got a C-section booked for next week, and it can't come soon enough. I feel like I've spent my entire pregnancy being an awful mother to my six year old DS, and my poor husband has had to put up with endless moaning. It has been a lousy pregnancy.

You are not alone! However, very soon we will have our babies, and pregnancy will be a distant memory

@bumblebee1987 good luck with your section! It is such a relief to know our babies will be here soon

Do you know what you're having this time around?
