Is 29+3 to early to mean about being uncomfortable

[justhayley]

hiya I'm 29+3 and so far have had a nice and easy ish pregnancy, but today I think being in labour would be more comfortable than how I feel today!
My bump is really low down - my mum and nan are convinced I'm not getting to 8 months let alone 9! I feel squashed and my bump is really tender and a bit hard today and is just generally getting in the way.
I'm uncomfortable and need to have a moan - who wants to join me?

Having had two babes, I understand what it is like to be uncomfortable!! If you have got concerns contact your midwife!!!
It is never too early to be uncomfortable, it depends how baby is laying and how big he/she will be...if you are small in stature too doesn't help!!!
Don't listen to people trying to worry you about how far you are going to get!!!
Just think only 11ish weeks to go, enjoy them and rest lots because if you don't rest before you sure won't rest after!!!!
GL!!!!!

Hi Hayley - I'm 29+2 and have been moaning about being uncomfortable for weeks! This is my 4th and last and definitely the hardest of them all - sailed through 1st, now I have SPD and would probably save my gaviscon bottle from a burning boat before my PFB

According to my chiropractor who I saw yesterday - wonderful man, keeps me able to do the school run so I can get DC oiut the house to let me veg on the settee in peace! - baby is still 'nice and high' so easier for him to do adjustments, but I need to stop going to the cinema, not being able to move much for 2.5hrs really spoilt war horse for me last night and DH laughed at me cosI was walking 'like a 50yr old' when we got up to leave - you'd think he'd have learnt by now not to say things like that to a hormonal woman!

Yes, I'm looking forward to giving birth :) Birthpool arrived this morning (excited now!)

Had a lightbulb moment in Asda yeaterday - Easter Monday is 37wks for me (trying SO hard not to get my hopes up for an Easter baby after DS2 was 11days late :() and they were advertising pancake day - which made it feel much closer! 3months is ages

I hope it's not too early because I'm 27+1 and I've been moaning for at least a few weeks... just leaning over far enough to type this is making me slightly breathless...

Your mum and nan shouldn't be putting the wind up you like that! When the wee ones come early it's for a reason... I'm having twins and even for us they say it's usually either about blood pressure or the placenta not doing its job so well towards the end... nothing to do with size (and I believe that because last time I went to an antenatal appt I saw a woman who was nearly full term with twins and she was so big she looked more like an ocean liner!

Hello! I'm 29+1 and will happily join you in the moaning! I feel really uncomfortable, slow and waddley.

I measured my bump last night and it's grown 2 inches in a week!! I now have a 41" waist.

A lot of my misery is down to SPD, but I can't believe there's another 11 weeks of this to come.

Yorky - hear hear on the Gaviscon!
