I have had enough. It has been a lovely pregnancy as I am so happy to be having a third child. There have been some strains such as SPD, two early months of terrible sickness, being quite skint and of course the hellishly bad decision of going on a camping holiday. I managed to keep my spirits up through all that. However the last couple of weeks I have had on and off restless leg syndrome or perhaps just baby sitting on a nerve. Anyway it was the straw that broke the camel's back and now I just feel fed up. My poor husband can do nothing right and my two other children seem wild and annoying. Help!!!!

In 37 weeks and have felt fed up pretty much the hole pregnancy, I've found it really hard. You have my sympathy. Hopefully your little one will be here soon xx

I am nearly 38 weeks. Just finished a major assignment for my MA on Wednesday and have had to basically spend the last two days in bed as I am so exhausted!

I am fed up of being pregnant, but totally unprepared as I have been so busy. Haven't packed a bag, put cot together or anything. My dp is working 6/7 days a week at the moment and my 5 yo is pretty hard work.

Aah, feel a bit better after a big moan!

I will definitely join you. I'm 38 weeks on Sunday and I feel AWFUL. Feel like food isn't digesting properly, I can't eat a full meal without being sick, and had ketones in my urine because I don't seem able to keep anything down.

Need sleep and rest but can't because of other kids, and I am SO BORED. Sick of TV, need some adult company and a good chat.

I know I will go overdue too because my other two did. Everyone keeps saying "not long now!" but if you felt this crap with anything else for two-three weeks you'd be hospitalised!

I'm 37 weeks today and misery loves company! I don't think I ever anticipated just how hard being pregnant and having 2 older DCs would be.

(Un) fortunately I have had GD but it does mean I am being induced next Friday at 38 weeks and I will be so relieved not to be pregnant any more!

38 weeks yesterday and longing for the end but still got lots to do so don't really want an early arrival. I haven't had an enjoyable pregnancy but I am obviously grateful to be pregnant. Just need a moan. Tired, fed up and having a toddler just making me want the baby to be here. Good luck ladies. We are nearly there. Thanks

Hello!!! A place for me to moan- thank goodness! I am 37+3 and soooo ready for baby to arrive. Body is teasing me with cramps but has been doing that for over 3 weeks now. DS came at 38 weeks so I am ever hopeful for an early baby this time. God it is tiring having a just 2 yr old and being super pregnant. Thank goodness he still naps and that we have a good schedule of toddler groups and meeting friends.

37 weeker here too and sick to the back teeth of pregnancy. I also have dd who is 2.9 amd had a 25 minute nap today Sad instead of her usual 2.5hrs. At least she will be in bed for six due to that, but I am getting terrible insomnia and not able to sleep til about 2am.

Id be great birth control atm as anyone who asks about the pregnancy is getting short shrift. I had already decided this was our final DC and this pregnancy has underlined it. Issue after issue after issue..... the newborn stage HAS to be easier.

And I've had a few txt from people telling me how quickly this pregnancy has gone for them. REALLY??? I feel like I've been pregnant forever Angry

I will defiantly join in the moan. 37 weeks for me
I have a 12 1/2 month old son. Who started to be very clingy, and just to fall asleep in my arm. (And when baby kicks he starts laughing instead of falling asleep)
I feel like I'm losing it. Had a nesting day on Tuesday and got so annoyed at DS for disturbing me while I was cleaning. (I should have been happy to do nothing and play with DS.

Braxton hicks are way more painful this time around. And more frequent..

Do your other kids also feel it that something will change very soon??? I have the feeling DS feels that soon I will be busy and he won't get all the attention as he used to get

Definitely joining in the moan. 38+3 and so miserable at night because there's no comfortable way to lie down. I just want to sleep without being woken in pain! This is my first so it may be wishful thinking but I feel like even the broken sleep once the baby is here must be nicer than this...
