I got confused and couldn't find it because it's been labelled differently. I'd say we'll have been through this thread by Feb 1st anyway - i mean that's four days worth of chatter! :P
This is probably a rant i should make more exclusive to my belly buddies but i'll have a whine here anyway. I am 36 weeks tomorrow, and i am so over being pregnant. I'm sick of people asking me "how's bubby?" and why not just "how's mummy?", like i no longer am important. That and i can so obviously tell how bubby is - and yet then they wonder why i always answer "i don't know" followed by a string of body/hormonal/emotional complaints that are really the best answer i can give to that question. It's Anthony's 21st today and i've just been so upset because i feel like i can't do anything. I don't have the energy to go out of my way to make a nice meal, we can't afford to go out for dinner on our own, we can't get to the beach to spend the day 'out', all we're doing is cleaning, unpacking and still 'moving in'. Over the last four days my hormones have been out of control. I swear i haven't stopped crying. It's driving me mental because not only can i not stand it but it interrupts my breathing, making me cough so hard i throw up. And then i end up with bad dehydration headaches. To which point i've exhausted myself from crying but can't sleep, snooze or nap because my head hurts. Argh.

I ended up going in to the hosp for a check up on saturday because i couldn't stop worrying about bubby and the midwife who was looking after to me was such a dismissive cow. I was really quite annoyed because she did the how old are you, first baby? questions and then just turned into a cow like i was wasting her time. I felt like slapping her in the face and saying hello, the concerns im having should be evident in any first time mother don't criticise me because of my age. GRRRR, hope she's not on shift when i go into labour.

Anyhow, sorry for my big rant.
