    I read somewhere that it's all part of preparing for the baby. Like your body needs to get to the stage of being sick and tired of being pregnant, and you have to get to the point of being so over it - so then you are more than looking forward to the actual end result - the kid! Cause if the body was set up so that we looooved being pregnant and wanted to stay pregnant who'd want to look after a newborn when they popped out cause you'd be resentful the pregnancy was over and probabably upset at the child for making it all end

    I am feeling this way right now...so tired of being tired, I don't want to go anywhere or do anything - but of course I have to, because I have to get DS to school and DD to kindy in the mornings and then I have hospital appointments and other things to do, and then when I am home there is the never ending housework...when all I want to do is just veg out all day and just do nothing!

    I am starting to think there really was something to that old custom of a pregnant woman going into 'confinement' a few weeks before her baby was due! I would love it atm - somebody else to cook, clean and take care of the kids while I am confining myself
