Here's my vent...

I'm sick of being pregnant!!! I'm sick of period-pain, back pain, false labour, pre-labour, and what appears to be labour beginning only to have it stop!

I'm over the heartburn, the already lack of sleep, and I swear to GOD the next person who says to me "enjoy your time alone while you can", "get your rest now, while you have the chance" or "try not to think about it, baby will come when she's ready" I'm going to murder them!!!

You try NOT THINKING ABOUT IT when you have a bump the size of an overgrown basketball in the middle of your body, feet on the right side of your ribs, bum on the left side of your ribs and a head in your damn pelvis!

Try not thinking about it when you can't lay down because of heartburn, when you have cravings so intense that they're painful, and when you're constantly hungry but there is never enough to eat.

Try not thinking about it when every second day, you get more and more signs that labour will start "soon" only on the 3rd day to have the whole damn lot disappear!!!

And as for "enjoying it while I can"... what do you want me to enjoy? Sitting around, alone, all day every day because I have no friends and no money? Being in constant pain? Being so emotional and over it that I'm in tears at least twice a day?

I want my baby out of my belly and in my arms where I can start getting to know here. Where I can look into her gorgeous eyes and know that she'll never love anyone the way that she'll love me. Knowing that I have supported her for the last 9 months, and that I'll continue to be her support through breastfeeding for the next however many months.

I want my baby girl IN MY ARMS and not in my belly anymore!!!!!

Wow, this thread rocks!
