What a rubbish day, I woke up with a horrible chesty cough stuffy nose and so lathargic. I then get on the wrong bus to work and now at work I haven't sat down. I just need a good rant, so anyone else who wants to rant I'm all ears :)

Just bloody miserable!
Feel sick, stuffing my face all the time to stop sickness, tearful, have a dissertation to hand in in 8 weeks- not started as been so ill since week 5!
Put on loads of weight, scan not until this Friday. Missed a school meeting tonight, brain a fog, want to curl up and ......

tinyme135 · 07/07/2015 19:57

Oh no :( try and look forward to your scan. I had a horrible few days before my scan and that was the only thing keeping me going. I hope it all goes well on the scan.

Just put your feet up and rest hun that's what I'm trying to do but my OH is asleep snoring after having an easy day....Men hahah

I just feel rubbish, low and moody mostly. Kinda wishing I wasn't pregnant, I don't entirely mean it, but just think; life isn't going to be the same, it was good just the 3 of us, money..... But I was "up" for having a baby. After 17months of trying I had thought it wouldn't happen, and then it did. Now 16weeks in to a not-too-bad pregnancy and feel quite guilty about these thoughts. But I dunno if there here because I'm a low and moody epl (emotional pregnant lady) or if their valid thoughts.....

Anywho, where be that chocolate.....

tinyme135 · 07/07/2015 20:42

It's more than likely the hormones talking hun, but i agree with you on where's the chocolate, we all need some today :)

Hi everyone

It's so nice to see other people having a bit of a moan!! Smile I am surrounded by positive pregnancy people who are having an amazing time of it!!!

I'm 29 weeks and carrying super low, so am suffering the dreaded PGP.can barely move. Look enormous and feel rubbish. Big hugs to all you other mums to be who aren't finding this all that easy either. It's nice too I'm not alone! X

ARV1981 · 08/07/2015 07:24

Hi, I'm having a bit of a rubbish time too. Bump is measuring big (I have excess fluid) so everything feels like hard work! And I've got at least 10 more weeks of this left!!!

Both my husband and midwife lied to me and said I didn't have stretch marks - I looked in the mirror yesterday and it's horrific! Confronted my husband this morning and he says he didn't want to upset me!!! Grrr. Gotta love his sentiment, but really? I'd rather know so i can slap on bio oil in the hope that it'll fade them faster!

Only got 2.5 weeks left at work, thinking they'll feel long!! But at least there's light at the end of the tunnel.

Flowers for all feeling shifty! Xxx

ARV1981 · 08/07/2015 07:24

^shitty

tinyme135 · 08/07/2015 09:07

Lucky I have half a day today as I'm seeing family so hoping today will be a lot better than yesterday.

Saying that my nose is still bleeding and I feel really emotional (I cried over a book I've read so many times and this is the first time I cried)

Let's push through it all ladies :) xxx

Feeling like crap today. Tired, snotty and just feeling pukey. Bleurgh.

I can't believe I have 28 more weeks of this crap. :(

I'm pretty sure I said "Adoption only" after the last one. :(

tinyme135 · 08/07/2015 09:41

I'm only 13 weeks and wanting it to be over, I can normally handle stress but nothing seems to be helping me lately and I keep snapping at everyone. My manager said why do you keep sitting down for (he doesn't know I'm pregnant yet) and I'm like well your lazy so why can't I be

27+4 with twins here. Exhausted, bloated and have zero energy. Alas can't comfort myself with food as also have gestational diabetes. I could have a carrot stick I suppose.

tinyme135 · 08/07/2015 10:59

Have a carrot stick and imagine it's something tasty?

Today has just gone from ok to like I want to curl up and cry. I'm trying not to cry as I'm at work but it's hard to fight back the tears :'(

I'm with you, tiny. Well, am probably an hour or so behind. I seem to be able to cope with the mornings, but once it hits, say, 2pm, I'm going to reach that curl up and cry stage. I'll hold your hand if you hold mine?

I was up at 5am this morning clearing up puppy poo and lamenting my foolish decision to get a puppy when I was newly pregnant. I then went back to the sofa I'm sleeping on whilst he settles in and found him curled adorably around my pillow. Is hard to be mad when they're cute. I'm hoping that will help me out in early days of motherhood too. Just gotta get through the next 32 months first. Uuurrrggghhhhhhhh.

DefinitelyMaybeBaby · 08/07/2015 12:19

I like these threads, even though I feel bad for everyone and really sympathise but it just makes me feel more normal!

I had a verging on obsession with pregnant people before I was - thought they always looked so glowy and happy and wonderful and I COULD NOT wait to be pregnant. 23 weeks now with first child and feel so naive! I used to quietly judge people who said they didn't enjoy being pregnant because I felt it must mean they weren't happy about it on some level. Oh how I've learned!

I'm off work sick today, can't even really explain why. So many things which could be minor on their own combined just means I can't cope - Horrible lower back and pelvic pain, knackered, hayfever meaning I can't breathe or sleep, my FiL is in hospital and not looking good so racked with worry about him, worrying I don't feel much movement from baby.
I'm not naturally moany or pessimistic and hate how sorry for myself I'm feeling, lying on the couch in my pjs with breast milk leaked on my top and not even caring. Uch!!

tinyme135 · 08/07/2015 12:32

Cause I'll hold your hand blue :) our dog knows something is up with me and keeps trying to sit on my lap (being a staffy I ain't having her weight on me xD)

I love how we can all open up and just let it all out without bring judged.

Definitely I was like you, why are those ladies moaning they're pregnant for Christ sake and now I'm like I'm sorry I didn't believe you....can I have sympathy now lol x

I feel so bad for thinking this but there's two kids on my bus and all I want to do is shut them up -.- I'm such a bad mum-to-be

BlueKarou · 08/07/2015 13:56

I think you're allowed to not like other peoples' kids, tiny. I never know what to do with kids which don't belong to my close friends. Our own will be different; we'll have figured out how to deal with them!

I've just managed to stay awake and upright as I took the older of my two dogs out for his lunchtime walk. Now back in the office feeling a little too warm, and a little dizzy. Going to grab some water and then try to stomach some lunch. I used to like food so much. Now it's an evil necessity.

Doje · 08/07/2015 13:58

I almost had a meltdown in Mothercare trying to buy a bra. Absolutely NOTHING in my size. My boobs hurt and I don't want to buy online!!

I just opened a twin pudding thing and it was yoghurt inside! I was expecting a nice chocolate goop. I was so looking forward to it and so very very disappointed. I might have to open the chocolate ice cream.

PiercedMrsL · 08/07/2015 14:59

I'm trying to be positive today... My one positive thought is that my gas and air is being delivered tomorrow, and its only 5 days until I'm allowed to definitely have a home birth as baby will be considered term!

Still feel pants though, my back and ribs are killing me. Time to go drape myself over my gym ball to make myself feel less achey, if that doesn't work then I'm going for the crisps. Actually I might just go for the crisps anyway!

DefinitelyMaybeBaby · 08/07/2015 15:17

oh man. I was craving a sweet treat - I had a bowl of chocolate granola to try and be a bit good. Literally just finished the last mouthful and vomited half of it back into the same bowl. What the actual hell?! I haven't been sick since first trimester. Husband pointed out my boob leakage earlier too, I was like "I KNOW! IT'S BEEN THERE ALL DAY ACTUALLY, SHOWS HOW MUCH ATTENTION YOU PAY!" I am too sexy today.

tinyme135 · 08/07/2015 17:40

Sorry our days aren't going well. I got my fave tea which is making me happy. Love my spag bol mmmm
