Parenting older children during the last weeks of pregnancy - IS IT JUST ME?

[emkana]

I have NO patience, I am extremely irritable, I so so so crave solitude which I have no chance of getting as dd2 clings to me for dear life at the moment, I just want to screeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaam...

and I'm only just 36 weeks.

My poor dd's.

well I only had one

but yes I was ready to put a pillow over her face by about 2pm

I switched on CBeebies which has the same effect

Those last few weeks were SOOOO physically hard

just you and me then mp

I'll join you ladies!
not pg anymore and have to say it's not got much better! If only they'd both have a sleep at the same time (day or night - I'm not fussy )
CBeebies has been a godsend, as has the Bob the Builder DVD. Or I'd go insane.
I think my patience has gone the way of my pelvic floor. AWOL

much easier when baby came to be honest

SOOO tiring being pregnant, it's not normal!

You're right MP - At least I could pick DS1 up again, and get off the sofa by myself once DS2 arrived!

I've realized this morning that I can't leave for school at the usual time anymore - will have to leave 5 to 10 mins earlier as my walking has become so bl*dy slow!

yes pepper

and when you hear someone shrieking from the other side of the house you don't have to spend 10 minutes wheezing and rolling your fat puffa body to find out what's going on
