I feel like I have hit a wall, just hit the 40 week mark and feel like I have nothing left to give to this pregnancy physically.

My back, knees and feet are buggered, given my small 5ft frame and original weight of 8 stone pregnancy has really taken it's toll on my body. I can't get out of the bath, a chair, bed, well anything really, without help or a ridiculous amount of straining to pull myself up. I have loved every minute of being pregnant, but feel like enough is enough now ha ha! I can't get my head around the fact I could easily have another couple of weeks :( Not long I know, but to me it seems like months away! On the flip side, I also think a little bit of me will miss my bump and keep thinking about not feeling kicks inside anymore. My head is up my arse!!

Emotionally, I feel so ready for my baby. I keep getting very tearful at the thought of seeing them for the first time. I can be sat watching the funniest programme on TV, and still sit there sobbing for no real reason!

Finally, I have this sudden ridiculous hunger that won't go away. I feel like I could eat my own arm off sometimes. I even keep dreaming about food, and wake up in the night thinking about things it would almost be appropriate to eat at 3am lol!

Does anybody else feel like this (loosing the plot basically!) at the end of their pregnancy?

yes. iv not hit 37 weeks and im getting there already. just gave my toddler nutella pancakes for tea, because i wanted them as a snack. now im having an argument in my head because i have a serious craving for roast beef and roast potatoes and loads of green veg (my over riding craving) but we had aleady planned takeaway tonight i am sooooooo hungry. and the discomfort too. my driveway is flooded and i have to waddles from house to car in wellies and cry with the effort of taking my wellies off (especially if husband watching....). it wont b long now xxx

Yes! The crying especially, and inability to get up/lie down/shift in my chair without groaning.
One week overdue today, you can make it as far as I have done (have felt this way for 8 days), I promise. As for tomorrow? Well, I have no ideas on that front, I'm afraid!

Yes me!! I've hit the 40 weeks mark today, still no sign of baby. I'm still fairly mobile but I can't stop eating, think I've put the most weight in this past fortnight.

Then this morning I feel so emotional and angry, why isn't baby here yet, then I look round the house and nothing seems right, dp is getting on my nerves and I feel a right misery guts, I don't even want to leave the house! Then I keep panicking about the labour and how will I cope
Arghh!!!
Let's hope we get to meet our lovely babies soon xx
