I'm 32 weeks pg with DC2 and the baby seems to be having a party in my belly all day and night. It seems to roll around constantly and I'm getting strong braxton hicks all day long, restless legs all night long, peeing every couple of hours and hardly any sleep.
Just want to have a little moan.
Thank you for listening.

My little boy was a right kicker, he kept kicking a nerve in my back(which i had previously damaged falling off a horse) so i started getting a really bad itchy rash on my legs. it was always a comfort though to feel himmove( although it hurts like hell) because i knew he was healthy all the time he was moving. You can do it and maybe you'll only have 7 weeks. x

Ditto.

You are definitely not alone in this. I don't get restless legs, but I do get chronic heartburn and I struggle to walk sometimes because I'm sure 'he' is trying to dig 'his' way out.

I've had two 'good' nights sleep since I was about 14 weeks pregnant. By 'good' i mean I woke once for 15 minutes. All other nights I wake several times or twice, the latter being about 3:30am and lie awake until it's time to get up at 6am - the time I feel like falling asleep!

My hormones are just awful. I cry (sorry, sob!) at the slightest thing everyday and last week at work was a nightmare. I had to be consoled by everyone at some point during the week.

I'm 33 weeks + 2 with another 2 weeks to go after this week of work.

Me too. I'm 31 weeks tomorrow and have a lovely lively baby but I'm shattered and recovering from a cold and waking several time a night, have a bad back and will be working until after Xmas. But I will put up with it all to have my lovely dc (but it's flipping hard!)

Me too! 34 + 3 and not slept properly for months. Baby seems to be a night owl and keeps me up at night - feels like there's an octopus in there!

However, am so happy to feel him alive and moving.

I'm 32 weeks too, and have just started getting pressure on my bladder in the last week or so. I use the toilet within minutes after my previous trip.

This baby is MUCH more energetic than DD. She was a very lazy baby, and hardly ever moved. This little boy likes to hiccup and kick my right hip all day. I can't turn over in bed without hurting my legs due to SPD and last night...I was SICK in my mouth from reflux...then I SWALLOWED IT...bleurgh.

But I will put up with EVERYTHING to have a healthy baby at the end. I had a few miscarriages before this baby, so I am thankful for every ailment related to pregnancy.

Know the feeling! I'm 35 weeks today and so grumpy, and tired of being pregnant now, just want to meet my little boy!

I had to get up 6 times last night to pee, and each time I couldn't feel my legs until properly stomping around on them. Restless legs are the bane of my life at the minute. And the wind! And the constipation!

i'm the same with not being able to sleep it's so annoying and if one more non prg person tells me it will all be worth it in the end i will scream! the end seems far away when you feel like crap!
