    Over it!!

    I am 37 wks pregnant and I feel like I have had enough already. I just want my little girl in my arms. I have enjoyed every minute of this pregnancy, but now I am just getting really uncomfortable, hot, annoyed at everything and everyone and these last few weeks have just dragged on & on. I have even started DTD with my husband lots hoping to maybe bring on labour a bit earlier . Ok I feel a better now that I have had my whinge. Anyone else feel like this?

    Oh you poor thing, I remember that feeling all too well and i'm not looking forward to it this time, either

    All I could do to keep myself sane was to plan as many small comfy treats during the day as I could manage - a foot soak, a warm bath, a gentle stroll, an icecream - and space them out so that I could get through each day at a time. And reminding myself, this is as close as I will be to this child ever, and it feels like an eternity now, but it's such a fleeting time... that and reminding myself about how at least it might be keeping me awake but it isn't *crying* LOL.

    I am feeling exactly the same as you. This weather is not helping either. I am so uncomfortable, hot, sweaty, sore, cant walk or move properly, my bones in my pelvis are making cracking noises when I roll over during the night. I hate the way I look, nothing fits me properly, I dont even feel comfortable in my maternity clothes (the only thing I feel comfy in is my summer pj's), I am starting to feel like I have morning sickness again....

    And I have to go to work tomorrow! I just feel like crying!

    So YES I cant otally relate to you and I hope that our babies come soon

    i feel sorry for you guys but i would give ANYTHING to get to where u are, ive had many complications allready and struggled to get preg again so when u feel like that which is probably constantly at the moment! just remember you are very lucky to have that little one coming into the world.

    I know what you girls mean. As much as I've enjoyed being pregnant, this last stretch is just dragging so much! I've been trying to keep as busy as possible to try and make the time pass more quickly, but then I overdo it and end up completely and utterly exhausted! It's frustrating not being able to do as much as I want.
    Still, once our little bubs are here, this will all be forgotten.

    Absolutely how I am feeling today! I know there are people out there who struggle with posts like this and I apologise to them but sometimes we just need to whinge... I've had people round for a barbie today and after cleaning all morning, then making up salads, then desserts, then cleaning up again, now I am sitting down and hurting all over.

    I can't get comfy, my back aches in a weird spot, my belly is so big it hurts when I roll any which way... my feet have been so puffed up for so long now that they really hurt... I have a crack in my heel that is really itchy...

    Ok I think I'm done now...

    Thanks for your replies girls. It's makes you feel better having a whinge sometimes doesn't it. It also reminds me that I'm not the only uncomfortable/hot pregnant girl out there.

    baby_blip - Ice cream YUM! Might have to go get some.

    Toomanytoomany - That's a great idea to give myself some small treats. I think we deserve it.

    DoubleDee268 - Very funny. Think I will be doing that too.

    AliBaby - I know what you mean about the clothes. Thanks for the hug!

    21andTTC#1 - I can understand what you mean, I just had to have a whinge to make myself feel better. Once again I have enjoyed every minute of my pregnancy, it's just that i want to meet her now. Congrats on your pregnancy. Hope all goes well for you.

    Hollye - I know I was thinking about that yesterday.

    sterla - I have finished all my cleaning and washed all bubs clothes so there isn't much else for me to do. The other day I went to the shops and walked around all day. I was exhausted! We can't win can we. We try and keep busy to make time go fast, then we nearly die doing it or we can relax and time drags. What do we do?

    OceanPrincess - Well done putting on a bbq. Aren't you good! Time to relax now!

    I've been having this feeling since I spent 10 days in hospital and came home with just myself and bubs still baking!

    I'm out of energy and just want to have bubs in my arms!

    I was due yesterday.... and as badly as I want to meet my little bub right now, I am still just enjoying my last few days at home "alone" while I can it's a special time before baby comes to also enjoy it with our DH's/partners etc.

    I have loved being PG, however I do know what you mean... once I reached 37wks, i just felt so close and that i've been pregnant forever!! but being PG has been such a great experience I think i'm gonna miss being PG when bub is out!! Although there will be more for us

    You don't have long to go now.

    Thanks Renstar. Think I am starting to realise I should just enjoy these last couple of weeks with just hubby and I.

    MelanieKate - Sorry to hear you were in hospital for ten days. Do you mind me asking what happened? Hope everything is ok.
