Anyone else fed up?

[agnesnitt]

I've had enough and would like it all to end now please.

I would like to be able to get upstairs without it being a mountaineering expedition. I'd love a night where I can sleep in any damn position I choose. I'd like to be able to pee to a time=scale that is considered normal. I've had enough of the nausea thank you, and the weird-ass cravings lost their comic value so long ago now. I'm fed up to the back teeth of having to cope with things because I'm pregnant, and would quite like to go back to being able to take my medication. I'd also like to be able to bend down again.

To be frank, I am about to serve notice of eviction.

Bring on the ankle massage and the raspberry leaf tea. I'm through with it all.

There there there. It'll all be over soon.

I'm starting to feel that way at 34 weeks. My body feels defective and unreliable and I'm fed up and actually quite depressed about it. I feel like an old lady.

I felt wretched throughout my pregnancy, the relief from symptoms like nausea and acid, and a very sore throat, within minutes of giving birth, was incredible.

Agnes.. it wont be long hun..

I too am ready now to have this baby... I have enjoyed the pg.. But I now feel ready to meet him..

Wish I hadnt got everything sorted and washed for him last month, atleast if things werent ready I could be doing that.. rather than sitting waiting..

ah i love it

tutter (also 36 weeks)

Yep. Am 39 + 2 with no 4 and am over it.

But when you get really pissed off have a lurk on 'the dark side' (June's PN thread, for example). Makes you realise that being pg is the easy bit!!

lol foxybrown..

Get how your feeling completely, I'm 35 weeks today in fact, and have a feeling i'm going to be late! - I can relate to the eviction notice thing, my Mum always tells me that I still owe her 41 weeks rent!

Just think, it'll all be worth it in the end. I was going to work up to the 12th of July and have given in and booked 2 weeks holiday ahead of my leave, I only have 1 week left to go and am desperately hoping that it will make some difference, mind you i'll probably end up cleaning the kitchen cupboards....for the 4th time!!

Good luck, I hope it all goes well!

36 weeks?!!! lucky you! I'm fed up and only about29 weeks!!

Yes me too Agnes, thoroughly fed up with it all now, I would like to be comfortable for 5 minutes, be able to get close enough to my feet to tell if they are smelly or not and actually do something about it if they are, to get a plate of food close enough to me to eat it without it dropping all over the lump and more than anything to stop these hormones making me feel so horrible.

I feel that way too, 34+2 and I feel so fed up, body is acheing, I lie down it hurts, I sit it hurts, I walk and it really hurts, my mind what to do so much but I've got a body that doesn't want to do anything. I so want it be able to wear my old clothes again, not to feel so dam breathless all the time, cant sleep, sick of DC asking is the baby coming out yet (if only) , food taste like s%*", drinking for England and as a direct result, weeing not only for England but the world, yes I feel your pain too, horrid time them last few weeks!

Baby is head down, I've got everything I want and need for this LO, just waiting on the baby and I think knowing that makes it worse!

Agnes- I came on here to moan about exactly the same thing!! I want to be able to go to bed when I'm tired and actually sleep. I want to lay on my front. I want to eat prawns and rare steak and pate. I want people to stop saying 'wow have you got a football team in there?'
Plus I have a feeling I will be late too.
Grrrrrrrrrrrr
PPS (36+2 and counting!!!!) XX

possibly a huge generalisation but i think that if you have styruggled to get pg you are less likely to notice the downsides of pregnancy

i blardy love it

ok it's not great waking 3 times in the night to glug gaviscon, but it's a small price to payu imho

This LO tuck me 18 TC (18 long months) I enjoyed DS#1 PG 100%, 50% of DS#2 PG but this time 5% (at a push) enjoyment!

ok, you have proved i'm wrong to make sweeping generalisations!

Not saying I haven't loved being PG but I am now ready for LO to make their grand entrance!! xx

Aaw you're so right tutter, everytime I moan I remember that some people are trying so hard to get pg, and some are having nightmare pregnancies with REAL problems. Makes all the little aches and pains and discomfort seem really silly to moan about!

I'll try to moan less and enjoy more.

Tutter I believe there is some truth in it, with this LO I've had so many scares (they thought my water's had broke at 17 weeks, I have a "show" every month as well as bad cramps, that's just to name a few) that I feel on edge, gave up on the amount of time my MW as asked me to take it easy today, this week and so on, maybe I've got to the safe point that now I just want to see my baby safe and well!

I didn't mean to sound ungrateful, I was just in a foul mood last night.

I should probably have added to my original post that I am fed up of stress and menfolk as well

It's nice to know that others are feeling somewhat less than twinkly though, I don't feel so bad about being a moaning old mare.

Oh dear I'm in for a bumpy ride, I'm only 27 weeks and really fed up! To be honest, I'm not fed up with being pregnant at all, just fed up that it's so damn hard being pregnant in the modern world. I'm not sleeping great, which is ok per se, but when workmen start drilling for 6 hours outside my bedroom window on a sunday morning at 7.30am and I've got to go and do a 9 hour shift at work I find it hard to enjoy being pregnant. If I wasn't I'd dose up on proplus or something to make me feel a bit more alert, but after 4 hours sleep I can't do anything but sob with exhaustion each morning and feel like I can't go on. The work is scheduled to last four months... I'm at the end of my tether after one week. Maybe pregnancy would be easier if I lived in a lovely remote farmhouse somewhere quiet and I didn't have to do shift work.

I know exactly how you all feel. Im 35 weeks today and have totally had enough. I spent 2 months out of the first 20 weeks in hospital due to sickness, I have been having contractions since I was 24 weeks (they have had to stop my labour twice)I cant walk, sit, sleep... without being in pain due to SPD now I have started have episodes of tachycardia and struggle to breathe. Now I can't go into labour again for at last two weeks because we move to England from N. Ireland on Thurs and I haven't yet sorted out a hospital!!! My DH has taken DS1&2 swimming this afternoon just to give my a rest but have can't settle and have spent the whole afternoon packing instead. I don't know whether to cry or laugh hysterically, its got to be some kind of joke cos life really isnt this mad, is it? At least O now know it's not just me!!!
