    How on earth?

    Are you supposed to get comfortable in the last weeks?
    I'm in constant pain, I can't breathe, I haven't slept in weeks and I am about to have a melt down, I can feel it approaching
    I know I'm whining and I'm so so sorry, I genuinely am so grateful and over the moon but this time I am completely over being pregnant

    Last time I was 15kg heavier due to fluid and bubs was measuring 8 weeks ahead yet this time is far more uncomfortable.

    Any tips to get me through the next 5-6 weeks? Pleeeeeease??? How do I get some sleep????

    what sort of uncomfortable are you? and do you know what is stopping you from sleeping?

    I'm finding that I need fans everywhere, as I'm too hot all the time!

    And a pillow under my belly and another pillow between my thighs and knees when I sleep ...

    Lots of water, and warm (not hot) baths ...

    And I've been seeing a chiropractor who has been keeping my pelvis and lower back in check ...

    I've been chowing down on lots of Zantac and Mylanta (and minimal fat and caffeine) to keep the heartburn under control ....

    Not sure if any of these things would help?
