To be fine with my miserable birthday

[JonSnowsWhore]

I am miserable. I have been since the start of my morning sickness, I will continue to be until this baby is out of me & i'm no longer in horrendous pain.

3 times before I'd even opened my eyes this morning my partner had said happy birthday. Had a couple of offers to babysit tonight so we can go out for a meal or something. No! I don't want to go out! I can't fit a proper meal in my stomach anymore so it's wasted on me, it hurts me to hobble along & sit on hard restaurant chairs. & I sure as hell don't have anything to wear or feel like putting any make up on. Why won't they just leave me & my miserable ass alone?

So far this morning I've had to have a go at both kids for not listening to me, the older one dropped a full up metal water bottle on my foot, there was so much bloody traffic the youngest ended up being late for nursery (they go to 2 different schools, I have no choice but to drive!) I've come home & got back into bed & cried again & here I shall stay until nursery pick up time.

I'm perfectly within my rights to just be left alone to my miserable day right??

😱 cheesy nooo I couldn't cope! I mean this in a good way but none of my family or his give enough of a shit about my birthday to agree to such plans, as in we don't all live in each other's pockets, not woe is me, no one cares haha. Most of my family are on holiday at the moment, and haven't heard from my dad so assuming he's forgotten again lol

How many children do you already have, Fox ? Or is this your first pregnancy so all your non working time is your own?

Eurgh you know when you should be careful what you wish for... had my sleep & woke up feeling even worse. Raging headache & have practically had to overdose on ranitidine to get rid of the heartburn/feeling sick.

But OH came home with some lovely presents, a little bottle of my fav perfume that I don't usually have as it's fairly expensive, the usual of flowers, chocolates, bath stuff, and he got me my portable photography studio kit bless him, which 3 year old doesn't understand doesn't all need to come out of the box tonight for me to know what it is got my favourite type of cake, the fresh cream one with fruit on the top from the Turkish/Greek bakeries & a little box of baklava. As he's been so lovely I've agreed to a take away so he's gone out to get us a Nando's to bring home

I'm still being miserable but a little less so I suppose

Jon don't worry this is my fifth. Practically sailed through the first four but this one has me practically crippled.

I've got a weird tolerance/reaction to codeine but I got on really well with the oramorph. Problem is I'm a recovered (prescription) drug addict so I've stoped taking it just incase.

Ah Jon, I hear you too!

33 weeks here and I'm so uncomfortable and so bloody tired! I also keep getting itches all over and am very bilious.

Cannot wait for this baby to be born!

Happy Birthday

I love all you people who sympathise. I don't feel so pathetic.

Oh the itching aswell, drives me mad! My dr put me through for the wrong blood test for that so will have to ask my midwife for it at my appointment tomorrow.

I have the hot water bottle out on my sore belly now, does help a bit :) no room left for cake though :(

Happy Birthday OP. My last birthday that I was pregnant I remember spending the evening crying and feeling very sorry for myself coz I felt so rubbish. It's allowed sometimes!

Yay someone else who understands. Miserable birthday club, it's our party & we'll cry if we damn well want to
