Just to chat moan anything about pregnancy

[kkl1]

Now I no pregnancy is a wonderful thing and so many people would love to be in this situation but at the same time I just need to have a place we're I can moan an every one eles understands an we can all chat together about it sorry if this has come across like I'm not great full for this baby I am very much an very wanted baby

Im 15 weeks tomor and I'm loving it but at the same time I hate it. I have 2 other children and work so I'm just so tired all the time but that is the only symptom I have so then I'm also in a constant worry that something is wrong and not all is going to be okay

Pregnancy is such a worry and scary time I don't won't to wish it to go faster I just would like to get to the point we're I can few baby move so I'm not worrying all the time any one eles feel the same

@kkl1 I am so sick of being emotional made DH a brew this morning with a sugar and he said "oh babe I don't have sugar" I cried and told him to stop being so mean to me 😁😂

@mylittlenugget I would ring and just keep them updated, they might want you to pop in to look at baby and you as it is still a little bit early. Or they might do nothing. I would ring if I was you but that's me 🤷🏻‍♀️ x

Been there @HJWT I think the best one was the night I'd found out I was pregnant I made a hot chocolate, stirred the powder in but decided it wasn't enough but didn't want to dirty another spoon or use the wet one so tried to pour some powder straight from the tub. The entire contents went in my mug, and then as I sat on the floor crying my favourite jeans ripped 😂
@greyby25 I'll call tomorrow thank you! Will definitely keep everyone updated as well, but I'll probably make a new thread so people can still use this one to get their frustrations out! X

37 weeks today. Our garden is getting done and DH dismantled the old grotty looking narnia shed in the back, and he made a passing comments about how the birds wouldnt be able to have a bath on the roof of the shed anymore as there was always a big puddle on it and we would watch them all from the kitchen.

So naturally I took this to heart and couldn't stop thinking about it until about 2 hours later I was nearly in tears thinking BUT WHERE WILL THE BIRDS GO TO HAVE A BATH??????

fuck me. The hormones are real.

Can I please have a moan??

I am 29 weeks. Ribs and upper back are in constant pain , worse when I am trying to sleep.

My boobs, oh my god. They are on FIRE. I want to rip them off of my body. The only thing that will soothe is an ice pack, not ideal when you work in an office. Have given up on wearing a bra to work and now wear husband's t shirts.

I am so tired all the time. :(

Pregnancy is such a wonderful thing all people tell u really is the exciting stuff not all the crap that comes with it lol

My immune system seems to be completely on holiday! I'm on my second cold and FOURTH coldsore and i'm only 15 weeks.

the coldsores really get me down. I used to aciclovir tablets prescribed by my GP but can't take them in pregnancy

VapeVamp I am the same! Someone sneezes near me and it wipes me out for two weeks, it's awful. I've upped my vitamin intake now, hoping that might work, my handbag looks like a branch of Holland and Barrett's now.

KK you are right, they really don't!

@vapevamp, @motherofcats I know how you feel. I still have a chest infection, showing no signs of getting any better. I think I'm going to end up having g another week off work. Roll on maternity leave!

Does anyone else feel like they are suffocating !? I'm 21 weeks and having to breathe deep to feel like I'm not going to suffocate 🤣🤣

@HJWT I'm crying all the time too!! At literally everything! I'm only 7 weeks and I CAN'T STOP EATING. Is that normal? I'm worried I'm going to be the size of a house! 😂

Yes it is normal!! I'm not quite as bad as I was pre 12 weeks when I was literally hoovering up carbs, but I am still bloody ravenous a lot of the time and feel faint/sick when I don't eat.

I put on a lot of weight by week 10 but then I haven't put on any since so I guess it's starting to even out (I'm 16 tomorrow).

I have seen a few threads though where people talk about only needing 200-300 extra calories per day and I think WHAT??? ☺️ I'm not convinced it's true though, that study posted earlier on the thread says pregnant women are operating at more twice their normal metabolic rate (and I'm going with that! 😊)

I'm nearly 28 weeks and have just found out I have gestational diabetes which just puts the cherry on the top of an already shitty week. A few weeks ago I had a horrific cough which wiped me out for a week. My clunky pelvis has flared up again (I had it last pregnancy) so it clicks painfully with every step (worse on a night).

Thanks to my new high fat/high protein and low carb diet my heartburn has gone through the roof.

Last week I was really horny and enjoying my fabulous pregnancy boobs, now I just feel creaky, achy and old. I am NEVER doing this again!!

I'm just thankful that no heatwave has arrived as yet!

I'm just so angry all the time and so fed up with it I don't no how my oh is putting up with me at all
My other 2 children are really playin up aswel atm so that's driving me mad
I can not wait for my midwife appointment on Tuesday so I can hear baby's heart beat so no everything is okay

Well yesterday was an eventful day! Had the midwife come and I mentioned I've been damp for a while and so she sent me to the hospital. Waited for an hour(!) in the reception of the unit, got hangry and so I went and found a midwife and told them I needed a wee but I'd been holding it because I'd been told I'd need to do a wee sample. Then they say oh yes let's get you a pot and a pad and then we're gonna need you to walk around for ages! So why couldn't they have done that when I first turned up I don't know! Went and got food and came back, it's now been about 2 and a half hours since I first got to the hospital. Get hooked up to a machine, they check the pad and say oh it's looking like it is your waters and they start saying so we'll be looking into induction in the next few days. I got all excited thinking I'd be meeting my little baby within the next week. They do a swab about half an hour after I've been on the machine and it comes back negative for my waters! They also put the speculum in weird and so it felt like my vaginal wall was being ripped open. So I've spent four and a half hours in hospital just to be told I was right all along and my waters are fine, and I might have a very mild infection but I won't know until Monday earliest.
Oh and someone please explain to me why some people think it's okay to bring their four year child onto the maternity unit and let them run around shouting and messing about with things!! I was lying there was no trousers on for ages and was genuinely petrified he was gonna pull the curtain at any second! And I couldn't have said anything because the parents would have heard and they were definitely the type to get arsey and start something!
On the bright side, baby is fine, I'm fine, I got to hear her heartbeat twice yesterday, and better safe than sorry. On the other hand I'm so fed up, I want this alien thing out of me, and I feel so deflated after being given a bit of hope that it could be over soon and then it being snatched away again. Sorry for the essay but I needed to get it all out

Can I thank you ladies for a delightful thread. I've been off work this week and I'm not 100% sure if it's a sickness bug, pregnancy or both.
This thread is making me feel better than we can just offload and feel rubbish without anyone turning up pointing out how awful we are.

Yes definitely agree this is an amazing thread! Despite pregnancy and having a child is amazing it's awful at points too and I love being able to have a moan and offload without fear of judgement. Thank you @kkl1 for starting it!

@LolaSmiles so sorry to hear you're not feeling well!

Either way none of us are awful, we're just being honest ;) rest up and get better soon x

My friend ROID is back. Oh so sexy. 😂😂😂

Ooh god doesn't sound like u had a good experience at the hospital at all i hope everything goes well for you how long do you have left I'm 16weeks tomor and I'm just so nervous that somthing is wrong still

39 weeks today. fed up.

pleading with her to make an appearance soon, doing all that i can to help it along.

I'm exactly 36 weeks so not long left, but still feels like an eternity. Can't imagine how slow it's going for you @Dvg ! Hope your little one makes their appearance soon!

@mylittlenugget yeah since 33 weeks it seems to have really slowed down, bad enough being pregnant but i also have a whiny 11 month old and a throat infection to deal with haha just want everything to stop hassling me :D

Oh god hope everything sorts itself out soon! I can't imagine going through this whilst looking after another child, let alone a baby 😬

So the mood swings/emotional unreasonableness had calmed down lately, a few teary moments at heartwarming or sad scenes on tv but apart from that all good. And then today I woke up sobbing, my partner was bewildered because I'd been crying for about a minute before waking up and then couldn't get out what was wrong. The issue was I dreamt he went to the cinema and watched Harry Potter and the cursed child (which even in my dream I was like but that's not a film) and Christopher Robin 2 (again not a real film I know) and had left me with his grandmother who hates me whilst everyone else in the family went. I feel like I'm at the beginning of pregnancy again crying over my ripped jeans 😂
