am 31 weeks and a bit with no 2. am sooooo fed up and bored with it all. am huge, really tired and slow-moving, no energy whatsoever for anything. i feel ugly and unattractive and i am just bored, bored, bored with having to constantly talk about being pregnant. as that's all anyone seems to care about (except dh, who seems to forget how exhausted i am, and dd who of course thinks mummy's huge bump is just one more great thing to play with!)

only thing that keeps me sane is thinking that when no2 arrives things will get out of control, so i should "enjoy" these last 2 months of relative peace. but TWO MONTHS??? i am going to go crazy...

Oh, huge sympathies. Pregnancy is truly appalling, isn't it, tedious at best and unpleasant at worst. You might only have six weeks to go, look on bright side...

it would be bearable i suppose if it wasn't for all those holier than thou pregnant types who keep saying how much they love it (and have their size zero maternity juicy jeans to prove it) i mean no offense to anyone, i think it's great and would love to be in that camp, but pls spare a thought for all us fat, farty, flat footed waddling whales out there!!

Congratulations.
It sounds to me as thought you may be low on Ice Cream - are you sure you're eating enough of it? If you can't cope with ice cream in this weather try Green & Blacks white chocolate.

God yes,pregnancy ius hideous.
My mother told me that I was an utterly miserable cow for the last 4 months, pretty much non stop.
How could she blame me??

beforesunrise · 16/03/2008 19:17

swedes, funnily enough they haven't tested me for that in a long time lol. as soon as dh is done putting dd to bed am sending him out in the rain for emergency restocking (it IS my birthday today after all!)

agree totally - and why the ignorant, rude people who have known me for years at work and never said a word to me - suddenly they want to talk constantly about the baby and my pregnancy

and the next person who asks "sure you're not having twins?" will get punched on the nose

Carey87 · 16/03/2008 19:20

oooo!! happy birthday

you definately deserve lots of ice cream!!!

oh gosh eys and I'm only 23 weeks. I am loathing this pregancy (also #2) and cannot WAIT for it to be over. Everything is the most enormous effort - particularly my DH .

charlotte121 · 16/03/2008 21:21

im totally fed up with being pregnant too. again this is number 2 for me and i just want to be able to move again without wadleing... I hate being so fat... im normally a 10/12 and when im pregnant i get to about a 16, and i hardely fit in the bath anymore... i tend to opt for ben and jerry cookie dough... and kit kats. they are totally amazing.
but then again im dreading having another baby to look after... im on my own so this i think is going to be a real test to my sanity!

turtle23 · 16/03/2008 21:34

Couldn't agree more. I am due a week today and I would give anything to have it over with. Ugh.

spugs · 17/03/2008 08:15

im the same as turtle due a week to day and had enough. mines baby number 3, never again.

Mum2b2BabyRoo · 17/03/2008 10:45

Happy Birthday for yesterday! I hope you got your ice-cream! And that you feel better today!

sagitta · 17/03/2008 10:58

Beforesunrise - I feel exactly the same and have pretty much throughout. Fat, ugly, heavy, tired, listless, bored - and with the light at the end of the tunnel - of two small children to look after in six weeks...
Wish I could help you - but I can only empathise!

Excitable · 17/03/2008 13:52

Yup - same here. And I'm only 17 weeks. What exactly is there to enjoy? A bit of clear skin is hardly enough to compensate for the sickness, the heartburn, and the discomfort and that's if you're lucky.
