Just that really.

34 weeks today with No 2.

Constant bruised feeling down below, i can do about 15 mins max on my feet, keep having blood pressure drops and going light headed.

I'm just a hot, sweaty mess most of the time and baby is measuring big/feels big. I permanently feel like a tent pretty much.

Just needed a little rant . . Roll on 6 weeks Grin

I hear you, I'm the exact same. Although I'm 36 weeks now. But I've been feeling really low pressure from around 33/34 weeks too and sometimes shooting stabbing pains. It's worse at night when I'm in bed and when I get up in the morning. I've been using a maternity pillow to try and help.

I’m the same!! Feeling a bit light headed at times, stabby pains in the groin, massive bump, out of breath after walking. Struggling to keep up with active 2 year old who wakes at 5am. I am so ready to get this baby out!!

34+1 today aswell. These next 6 weeks will drag🙈 im having such sharp pains down below.. stops me on my tracks (lightening crotch😭). Feet are swollen and the only time im comfy is lying in bed on my left side. Tears be tripping me for no reason at times lol bloody hormones🤭

But - we're nearly there ladies🙈😆 xx

I feel you! I'm only 32 weeks (baby #2) and I'm thoroughly fed up. I'm measuring big and I honestly can't fathom my belly getting any bigger. I'm trying to keep active but it's getting harder and harder to stay motivated. I just want to lie in bed and have someone fan me and roll me over when I get the inevitable cramp in my legs every 5 mins.

Glad it's not just me lol

Same here, baby measured 6lb last week at scan (which I know can be inaccurate) but he already feels so much heavier than I did with my daughter and 6 weeks is a good 3-4lb more from what I read!

I have pure mum guilt for my 4 year old as I keep having to say no to things, picking her up or sitting on the floor to play, it's physically painful and getting back up is a nightmare.

I was 5 days over with her and I've read you're on average 5 days earlier with number 2, I can hope at least lol be nice to be on time or a little early Grin

Ugh, likewise!! 37 weeks tomorrow and I'm so uncomfortable - my back hurts my ankles are swollen, stretch marks have appeared where there were none before and the kicks!! I'm growing a football player by the feel of it... not to mention the piles, the nausea, the headaches, the lightening crotch...! Ready for it to come out now!

Same op, 34 weeks baby measuring 7lb 14oz already, roll on June!

Does anyone else just randomly gag - even during a slight movement. Getting comfortable in bed i gag - getting up i gag. If i bend over at all i gag - if i haven't ate - guess what GAG. So sick of it now. Can't walk up the stairs without getting out of breath.

Im a FTM and never been more excited for my little girl to arrive but im really really hating being pregnant. Emotional mess. Just want her out now 😭😭 xx
