So utterly fed up right now........

[weecarol]

Im looking for sympathy if the truth be told.

Im 38+3 today, feeling so fed up and just want this baby out now. Had SPD since 18 weeks, crutches and maternity belt since 25 weeks. Constantly in pain and I have just resigned myself to the fact that this is how it is gonna be for the rest of my pregnancy.

Havent had a good night's sleep in what feels like forever.

Sickness back with gusto and as a result have ketones in urine, also haemoglobin had dropped a fair bit and now on pregaday as of yesterday.

Little un not moving as much as normal, I know its cos he is getting bigger and he is certainly not moving so little that I feel I need to do a kick chart but I still cant help but worry. Crazy pregnant woman I know!

Feeling awful today and yesterday, having the "shakes" and just feeling nauseous all day. Cant put my finger on it but just don't feel right. Just want to cry all the time for no apparent reason.

Im just fed up and needed to vent....

Have you asked to be induced early?

Just think - A few more weeks and the pain and sickness will be gone and you will have a little to cuddle xxx

I know im just being a moan and it will all be worth it but in a few weeks just feeling really fed up and no one about to talk to today so just sitting on sofa crying. Having a hormonal day, shouldnt really complain as it took 8 years for me to get pregnant!
No medical indications for me to be induced early, need to ride it out as it were.
Cant even be bothered to wash my tea mug

God - you don't want to be induced early - it's not worth it unless it is being done for serious medical reasons! I understand how you feel as I had pelvic pain, sickness at 35 weeks and Gestational Diabetes that started at 35 weeks so I couldn't wait to give birth either.

Why don't you try to pamper yourself a little, get comfy, read a book (you won't have the chance again for a while) listen to some nice music and chat to your baby. You won't even remember what these horrid last weeks felt like once it all gets going

Just try to think of it as a nice time when its just you and baby for a little while longer- when he or she comes out you will have to share him or her with lots of other people (grandparents/DP etc)

Hey weecarol. just wanted to send you my wishes. i know exactly how you feel.
Its a crap feeling isnt it. was going to start a thread today myself as just want to cry myself. so if you dont mind i will just have an out burst on here.

i am 37+4. Got bad spd. should be on crutches but cant cope with them. On the second week of antibiotics for kidney infection. so getting very sore contraction like feelings in lower front bump and constant pain in lower back. ( plus thrush) Having regular blood tests as my liver function is starting to show bad signs. ( had this with previous pg) Also my iron level cant seem to get up to past 9.2 and seems to stay around 8.8 no matter how many tablets and things i take. Already had one infusion and they are talking about another. This pregnancy was an accident, a pill baby so i am starting to stress over pnd etc as my ds only turned 1 last weekend and is very ill with a stomach condition. in hospital on friday again for more tests. Throw in there a hypa 3 year old dd. and a less than sympathetic dp that complains when he has to help me do things at the weekend as " other women can manage it on their own in the week!"

aaaahhhh that feels better. now if someone could turn up to help me make lunch it would be great!!

do you know what you are having weecarol?

Amy you poor soul, I think you need some hugs!

So sorry you are having such a hard time of it, hopefully your DP will realise that you have a debilitating condition with the SPD never mind everything else that is going on and help you out without thinking he is some sort of martyr for mankind! Hope that your DS has a speedy and full recovery.
Sending you my best wishes and thoughts for the remainder of your pregnancy.

I am having a wee boy and can't wait to meet him, got a feeling he is gonna be a cheeky one

thank you. bless a little boy is very cool. didnt ever think i could feel like that as i adored my dd, who is a pink freak. but my little man is something special. the love is so different for each of them.
we dont know what we have this time. got some names sorted for a girl, we make a shortlist and choose once its here. however we are stumped for a boy. may need to sit dp down tonight and highlight howclose we are.
