coping but now fed up and having a wobble anyone else

[Cazm2]

Hi all 38+4 and was doing ok keeping active but past few days feel like I have gone backwards exhausted not sleeping and everything is effort. My ankles are just starting to swell, I think I have varicose vein in my leg coming as well as my vuval varacosities. Just started to get stretch mdarks on lower tummy despite cream smothering. I burst into tears at midwife this morning she was. Very understanding and helped. I just feel down and things getting on top of me. I lost ny first baby which is why getting. R anxious! My whole vbody is a mess$

Oh love how are you today? I got a lot of hair line broken veins in my legs and vuval varacosities and lots of stretch marks despite using cream. The stretch marks do fade a lot and the veins in my legs have calmed down a lot now too. I never enjoyed being pregnant and I definitely didn't enjoy the changes to my body. You of course have the added worry of having lost a baby. Sending you some very unmumsnetty ((hugs))

poor cazm2!

not long to go! you're on the home strait now....

I never felt bloomy either, although my this point was shouting for joy as it was nearly over! You're so nearly there and with past experiences of course it is loaded! I've had many a meltdown when pregnant, it's v normal. As soon as I had my babies I always felt like me again!

Hi sorry on my phone last night! Bit better today and this baby so precious I feel bad for moaning. Just would like to arrive now! Just bit emotional and down. I suffered health anxiety years ago and it just seems to have re appeared! I know some women have it a lot worse as well the thought of another month is killing me! Thanks for jnd words it helps when you can sound off!!

Why don't you treat yourself to a pedicure! Beautiful toes even if you can't reach them will make you feel better about other things falling apart a bit! Also ever so relaxing! I know it's not going to solve everything but a bit if a pamper makes us all feel a but better
