36 weeks and SO uncomfortable!

[Whydoitorturemyselflikethis]

36.5 weeks, 2nd baby and in agony with how uncomfortable I am. I never had this the first time but now my stomach is so sore just from stretching, the skin hurts too but I can barely move, it's pushing down so much and it's so sore down there as a result and walking anywhere really hurts. Is this quite common towards the end and I just happened to skip it the first time round??

Just me then?

I'm in the same boat! 2nd baby, 36w2d today. By the end of the day, my skin gets soooo stretched and tender. This baby is very low so pulling the skin to it's extreme at the bottom. I also have a 2 year old to chase around or jump on me. I can't wait until this one arrives.

How old is your little one?

2 as well!

It's hard going isn't it? I'm utterly fed up and just want to cry or rant all the time. I think it's just my hormones playing havoc and gearing up for labour, not usually so emotional

Hello, I'm 36 weeks tomorrow and it feels like my skin is about to rip on the bottom part of my bump. It also feels bruised - so I guess this is all normal...This is my first so I have no clue what's going on! lol xx

Hi! 36+3 here and can't stand the hip pain anymore and my skin also feels so stretched. Thinking I could have another 6 weeks of this makes me want to cry!

Hopefully we'll all give birth sooner rather than later. As soon as I get to 37 weeks, I'll be trying long walks and lots of sex just in case it does work :)
