Is anyone else feeling just totally and utterly fed up...and still a long way off due date?!

[iamamummy]

I am 30 weeks, been running around after my 4 yr old and 2.5 yr old who dont take a blind bit of notice all day, dp at work...
My back is killing me, my pubic bone feels like it might snap and my insides are about to fall out through my fanjo!

I have really just had enough....feel like i just need to cry and cry some more...never felt like this with other 2 pregnancies...its normal right?!

31 weeks here and totally knackered. I'm currently counting the days till I stop working. DH knows that my place is firmly in the sofa until that day. Haven't told him yet how much time I may be spending on the sofa after that date, small steps and all that.

Have a cry if you need to. Makes you feel so much better and gets your point out there, of you know what I mean. Also, come join us in the 'due in August' thread in 'pregnancy', we're all feeling a bit down at the moment, but it helps to share...

West is right We are all a wee bit down, but it's worth remembering that every pregnancy is different. I'm almost 29 weeks with %231, but feel much like you (I really feel with you having two little ones!). It is normal but do try and rest Come join us!

I am only 23 weeks! Have 4.5 and 2.5 year old who haven't stopped fighting this past week and jumping on me. My back is killing and I'm shattered I also feel really on edge about something and wound up and I can't work out what it is. 3rd pregnancies are certainly harder and I'm now really worried as we wanted a fourth child!

I would have a cry or sob and see if it helps. I cried on Friday over a missing Rapunzel dress so your not alone!

Iamamummy I could have written exactly that! I also have a 4 year old and a 2.5 year old who are running me ragged! My DH is away at the moment with work, and my SPD is leaving my laid up most of the time I'm still only 16 weeks though, so a hell of a long way to go, and wondering how I'm gonna make it to the end with my sanity in tact!

I'm glad someone started this thread. I felt like it might be too early for me to start moaning and griping as I'm only 32 weeks but I've had enough.

My back is killing me, I have a permenantly swollen leg and fanjo and a few days ago noticed I have 1 horrendously painful pile . I'm having a BIG baby apparently and my body cannot cope - I also have an extremely mobile 14 month old to run around after who doesn't understand that mummy needs to rest. He hasn't napped at all this weekend

The worst thing is that DS1 was very premature (28 weeks) so I don't even feel like I'm allowed to moan to my nearest and dearest. Grrr!

Snow, I'm glad I'm not the only one with fanjo problems

Grim isn't it Frillyknickers , my fanjo is just horrible. The bulgy bit is massive and underneath is like two bits of rump steak flapping about . Is yours the same? I can't wait to get my lovely neat undercarriage back.

Saddle sore is how I've tried to explain it to DH by he's never riden a horse. Ouch.

RetroMum1, I'm 23+5 :) The hormones are turning me into an absolute monster :( I am screaming at DH in the supermarket. I wish I could hibernate until week 40 :(

I'm only 14 weeks gone got a 20 month old DS and have been in pieces all day. Got 4 hours sleep last night stressing about work stuff, DH has been working all day and I'm worrying how I'm going to manage with another one. I'm still BF DS andbwhilst he packs food away he doesn't half ride the boo boo train. Just tired I guess, respect to you all for having 3, I'm sticking with you now as I might learn something to help me.....survive? Cope? Arghhhhhhhh

Hello ladies :) 33 weeks here and feel like I'm actually ready now to have this baby ! 2weeks left of work thank god don't know how I going to survive! I have a 6 and 4 year old and my patience is wearing v thin at the mo poor things ! And in doing a diploma and have to sit a maths and literacy test on Thursday with this mushed up brain

Aw thanks ladies....sorry to hear u are all feeling pretty crappy too

I cant remember who described it as saddle ache or somthing....but it is exactly that!!! I am a bit too scared to have a look down below!

And yes i am a hormonal monster too screaming at dp for the craziest of things that normally wudnt make me bat an eyelid....my favourite line at the moment with him is "i dont even know why im having a third bloody child when ive got you to fuss after" ...jeez i must sound like a broken record!!

At bingo with my mum tonight so hopefully will relax a bit being out the house.

Love and sympathy to u all x x

Cheekychops84- you sound like a saint :) Work, kids, pregnant, and a diploma- you deserve a medal!

OMG I am so close to killing DH. I think by week 40 I'll be having this baby in jail :(

Milk I'm 23+5 as well! Glad it's not just me being so hormonal!

Sadly it sounds normal to me (DCs are 7, 5 and 2.5 here and I am now 32 weeks). I actually felt worse at about 28 weeks, when was having fanjo ishoos with varicose veins and thrush.

The crushing tiredness is really doing me in , and it'll probably be almost 10 weeks until I give birth -3 weeks into the summer holidays, eeeeek!

I am also grumpy. Fact. Poor DH. Poor DCs. I may have shouted rather a lot when everyone started asking 'what's for lunch?' today just after the DCs and I got back from church when DH had been at home alone all morning (doing housework to be fair ).

Yes definately me! I'm not quite 19 weeks . This is no 5 and my oldest is about to turn 6, so I am completely knackered all the time!

I can sympathise with the fanjo problems also. It has never been this bad before, and i really don't know how I'm going to manage to keep a baby in there for another 20 weeks , as already if I stand up for too long it feels like my lady bits might just disintegrate....I just keep myself going by telling myself this is the last one (DH has already had the snip!)

Snow I'm exactly the same Bit bulgy and veiny...so freaking gross!! Talk about feeling unsexy!!

Milk, I was totally thinking of ways to kill DH yesterday! Luckily we kissed and made up but it was close

Hiya all I am 21 weeks tomorrow and had enough too. Lol. Have a dd, 11 in a few weeks and ds, 5 who has severe special needs. I am also a single parent and I am KNACKERED never knew it would be this hard 3rd time around. I am huuuge already and finding it really hard to
Do day to day things. Looking after my 5 year old ds just now is extremely tiring and I am now in the process of getting extra respite for him. I found out a fortnight ago that I'm having a girl. I am also suffering really bad with excruciating pain particularly in my left side, low down, abdominal pain. Dr thought it was uti's, twice now, but if not that, getting sent to Physio. I feel allllll your pain
