Sounds familiar?

Sigh. Good to know I am not alone but sorry to be in equally fed up company

Yes. Anyone else want to just climb into a big fluffy yurt and wait out the next month or so with tea, pillows and foot massages?

I do have codeine from the consultant for weird rib pain but am taking a half dose as the full dose makes me so spacey. Sitting at desk excruciating. Bah.

This is like some weird limbo isn't it?

Oh, and none of my shoes fit at all. None. I am a slim show size 6 who now has FLIPPERS for feet. FLIPPERS!

To me it feels like I'll never get to the goalpost. February couldnt feel more distant!
I did go up a shoe size with my 1st pregnancy even though I did not have preeclampsia or high blood pressure. I remember being as astonished as you are! That of all things I did not expect. My feet went back to normal, eventually!
On the plus side, later today I'm going to buy my baby items which I put off buying until the sales. Oh I love a bargain! If I can manage to walk around kiddicare, that is, if not will be shopping online.
