34 weeks. So uncomfortable. Just want to have a half hour where I'm not in pain, or feeling uncomfortable. Just one position where I don't feel horrendous.

I know. Be grateful. But its still 6 weeks left. For no other reason would you put up with being this uncomfortable for a month and a half!

Any suggestions?

I promise you it is worth it! I spent over half of my second pregnancy in crutches. It honestly felt like my pelvis was crumbling. I was in agony, not sleeping and everything hurt!
As soon as she was born, no pain & I was walking absolutely fine without the need for those bloody crutches!

I know it’s a blessing to conceive but I hated being pregnant. The continuous sickness 24.7, the extreme fatigue and feeling like a walking potato. I was so happy to have my body back afterwards, you aren’t alone in how you feel

I've had physio but it's just a "try not to make it worse". I think I'll have to go back for crutches

It is the guilt as well! I feel terrible for not being able to be as active with DD, for not being able to concentrate as well as work because of the pain and just not being able to focus, for DH having to pick up everything. I know I shouldn't but you can't help feeling guilty!

God yes, the guilt. Cant keep up with 19mo ds. Sex life with dh has gone down the pan due to pain and tiredness. I have a whole house to drag into shape and am making no progress because I keep having to sit down and rest. Poor dogs are having to wait for dh to get home for their walks because I cant manage it. The list goes on. I went a week over last time too. I think I've found my people lol.
