Anyone hated being pregnant so much that having a newborn was a relief?

And did that feeling last??

I'm so over being pregnant and at 36w time is moving in slow motion. I am desperate for the baby to be here so I can start to get my body back to myself, hopefully my pelvis will stop falling apart and my backache will ease up a bit, and heartburn won't be a regular occurrence anymore. It's lovely to feel baby moving and know they are ok, but the movements often make me feel sea sick. I would very much like to not be hosting this baby much longer.

But then everyone is like 'oh well you won't know what's hit you when they arrive!' as if pregnancy (despite being shit) is infinitely better than having the baby around. Maybe there'll be some short-lived respite at least??

Interested to hear anyone else's experiences, especially if pregnancy was tough.
