I feel like...well you know

[SophieRose]

Seriously, i am never ever ever getting pregnant again!!
I can't take this whole constant headache, back ache, stomach ache, my eyes feel like they've been shot up with fluid.
Every time i breathe there's a sharp shooting pain that knifes through my back around my ribs.
I just feel like crap.
And what the heck happened to the burst of energy and well being your supposed to get when you hit the second trimester???? I go to bed around about 10:30 of a night, and if DP doesn't wake me up, i'll sleep until 3pm the next day!! Then feel super exhausted three hours after getting up.
My head feels like it's stuffed with play doh. I can barely keep my eyes open cause they feel like their full of fluid.
i just generally feel like ****!!
I don't want to be pregnant any more, can some one else take over for me???
I really just want it out. Right now. And yes, i know i still have like five months of this.

You poor thing Sophie!
I know the feeling, it feels never-ending - it'll seem an eternity but you'll get there in the end.
Try to hang in there - keep up with the cheese, crackers and pickled what-nots!!
Add salami to that concoction and I'm there with bells on!
Take care Soph!

Sophie Rose, not everyone switches over automatically at the "magic" second trimester mark. With my first pg it was 20 weeks. This time around I didn't feel great until 30 weeks. But both times I did reach that point where all of a sudden I felt FANTASTIC. But the first part is terrible. Hang in there. Just keep telling yourself that it's worth it in the end and it is. Plus when you start to feel better, feeling terrible is barely a memory. And remember you don't have to do it again if you don't want to ;-) Good luck x

Have you had your iron levels tested recently because you really shouldn't be feeling that tired at this stage of pregnancy. Have you mentioned that eye feeling to your GP because I've never heard anyone mention that kind of feeling having anything to do with pregnancy so that could be something else. I hope you start to feel better soon.

Agreed. I felt like POOOOO til i was about 22 weeks, had morning sickness til about 16 weeks and felt like dying alot of the time. Only in the last few weeks have i had the 'bursts of energy', but only mentally not physically...its annoying cause now my brain is more active and sickness is gone, my feet are caining! and im not even a heavy person and have only put on 3 kgs ( well, 8 kgs actually but lost 4 from morning sickness).

i have said to DP 'no more!!!'
i praise all the women with more than 1 child, i have NO idea how anyone coud be pregnant while looking after a baby/toddler/child. i dont know how my mum did it! she was pg with my sister when i was 4 and my down syndrome brother was 6, i wouldve killed someone! LOL

[SophieRose]

Yeah, there is no way i'm doing this again. One time of this is enough for me i think.
I've changed my mind, i don't want three kids. I just want this one to hurry up and be born!!!
Plus i don't have any crackers!! we forgot to buy some when we did the shopping, so i have all the yummy stuff for crackers, but no crackers. *cries*
Plus i waged war on my in-laws last night. So we'll see how that goes.

Cut the crusts off some toast instead of crackers. Even now i have good and bad days. Some days i could sleep all day and others I am fine. But I was a wreak until 20 odd weeks ( no spewing, just buggered) Just allow your self to have crap days without stressing about it. FWIW 10.30 for bed, HAHA I am in bed by 8.30 at the latest these days and some days sleep till 8.30 ( cept for the 6 toilet stops a night )

[tattoo_mama]
