30+5 and fed up.

[Mango92]

Im praying this baby comes a few weeks early. I can't take the breathlessness and constant snacking and heartburn much longer.
My hips and back ache and I spend most of the day laying down because I have no energy.
Feeling utterly zapped. I didn't think I would feel so down about being pregnant. No one warns you about this bit.

Anyone else struggling with the last stretch?
How are you coping?

Yes. 31+3 here and I feel the same. Apparently there is such a thing as the 30 week slump. I am exhausted, I've 5 weeks of work left (I know that's not too bad! Just don't want to do it!), I'm fat, frumpy, cry at the drop of a hat, get furious over small things, constantly hungry but then get heartburn-y and sleepy whenever I eat, have thrush on and off the whole time, restless legs... Er, I'll stop now or I'll be here all day!

31+6 and yes! I'm exhausted and have an energetic two year old! Indigestion is terrible and I'm so hungry.

Yep, 30+1 here with severe SPD again and sooo ready for this to be over with. My job is crazy-technical so I can't take my codeine during the day in case I miss something in a technical spec etc and cost the company ££ by having something re-programmed and my brain is like 'WHEN IS THIS STOPPING?!?!?!'. I work from home and my boss is really cool if I'm like, listen, I gotta take a nap so you guys aren't gonna hear from me for a while which then means I'm working until 10, 11 at night to make up for it. Last pregnancy I took mat leave from the Monday and went into labour on Tuesday night so definitely starting leave at 38 weeks this time (but secretly hoping he comes a little earlier....).

The thing I'm having this time that I don't remember last time is that I will be starving so will have something to eat, but I get full so fast that the tiniest amount of food fills me up to the point of nausea. So because I haven't eaten very much I get hungry again at the flick of a switch so it's either so hungry or so full - no in-between!

33+4 here, sleeping really badly, eating crap because I have no energy to make proper food. So then I have heartburn. Hip pain, rib pain, indigestion...
I'm working until 37+6, god knows how I'm going to get that far.

As reassuring as it is to feel baby move. I am at my witts end with him kicking me in the ribs and bumping his head around in my nether regions.
I'm lucky that I'm off work from 32 weeks. I don't think I could cope otherwise. Unfortunately, all baby prep is done so its going to be a loooog 8 weeks til my due date.

I'm 30+4 and know exactly how you feel. I have nothing to say that will make you feel better but I definitely do feel sympathetic.

I have severe SPD and I'm on crutches. Studying full time whilst raising 2 DCs. I only have 3 weeks left until my course is complete but it feels like a lifetime. Hopefully I'll be having a csec at 38wks (would have been 39 but I'm trying for earlier with the spd). My dp lives 120 miles away and we won't be moving till after baby comes.

I just want to sit and cry. I haven't slept for longer than 2 hours a night for the last week and my whooping couph jab has made my arm so sore! I can't wait for this pregnancy to be over!
