I feel awful for saying this but I'm hating being pregnant

[Ellarose85]

I'm 34 weeks with baby number 2 and have a very active 1 year old to look after so rest is a luxury that doesn't happen often.

I ache all over, my skin on my tummy literally feels like I'm about to rip, I have the worst acid reflux to the point where I'm not eating as when I do I'm sick and to top it off I have terrible thrush that has comes and goes, nothing seems to help.

It took me all my effort not to scream at my midwife when she suggested milk for the acid reflux and natural yoghurt for the thrush - I have tried everything!

Is it normal to feel so utterly crap and negative? I don't remember feeling like this with DS even though I had the same issues during my pregnancy with him.

My poor DH is treading on eggshells around me as I'm not pleasant to be around at the minute!

You're not alone! 32w5d here and I am thoroughly fed up. Horrible heartburn and acid reflux and SPD that has stepped up from 'mild discomfort' to 'OUCH' today plus constant backache however I sit/lie down. Plus, I almost fainted on the bus to work yesterday. I know I am so lucky that baby is healthy and still in there, and I'm a low-risk pregnancy, but it's still just really unpleasant! If you don't end up going to the GP for the heartburn, did you know you can get non-brand Gaviscon for free if your pharmacy does the Minor Ailments scheme?
