At "that point" - anyone else?

[Cricket]

I think I have come to the "I'm REALLY ready to be done" point.

I can't wait to meet this new bean. I REALLY want to know what it is, and hold it and snuggle with it, and nurse it, and carry it in the wrap, and then lay it down!
I want to sleep on my stomach again.
Heck, I just want to sleep!
I want to climb the stairs without feeling like I might croak at the top!
I want to walk without waddling.
I want to be done with the leg cramps and stomach cramps.
I want my feet to stop looking like snowshoes. (here's hoping!)
I want my varicose veins to go back to being just ugly, as opposed to huge and hideous.
I want my back and hips and pelvis to stop hurting.

OK, OK, I'll stop whining now. I really haven't had such a bad time - it's been a good pregnancy, and I'm so thankful that baby and I both are doing well.

But I'm ready to be DONE!!!

Anyone else want to join this little tantrum?

[Netty]

Me too Me too!! Though I think sleep may be less for a bit, I can handle that part though!

[~Trish~]

I definitely know what you mean . I am having lots of those days and I'm trying hard not to think that way because I still have 4-5 weeks to go!

Keeping myself busy is helping keep my mind off it all, but there are moments where I think "Enough already!!!!".

Oh to sleep on my tummy again...

[Fleur]

* Jas puts BOTH hands up & shouts ME TOO!*

yep, I hear ya

[~Trish~]

Aww jasp . It will be all over for you VERY soon

Can't wait to read your BA

[bubno.3]

morning just would like to say i remember those time ahhhh all to well but just remember you have between now and 5 weeks to go .... so hang in there ladies your doing a great job!

[tk1999]

Oh sleeping on my stomach... yes please... pretty pretty please! I am a tummy sleeper - always have been and without my body pillow I would be lost.

[~Hestia~]

Yep me too!!
Oh to be able to lean forward without overbalancing & toppling over.
To not have to sleep propped up because of reflux.
To be able to do up my own shoes.
To be able to go out without answering the same questions over & over.
To not be told I am so big I must be having twins.
To be able to have my cat on my lap.
To be able to go somewhere without exhausting myself from the car ride there.
To be able to walk like a "normal" person.

Hmmm I think that's all for now!!

[Taurean]

Completely and utterly ready! Gosh, how on earth will I get through the next 7.5 weeks?!

AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!

[misty]

Me too!

And then I remember:
I still won't get any sleep.
I will then have three kids to run after.
I don't have everything organised yet, haven't even washed the clothes or bedding yet and seen if I need anymore.
I really don't want to be there for the labour (any other volunteers to do this for me?)
It is really bad timing for DH to take time of work atm (which he tells me repeatedly, like I have any control over when I give birth).
I don't like my hospital I am booked in at.
I have a uni assignment I would like to be able to start before the baby arrives.


hmmm. I don't know what I want. To be comfortable and meet my precious bundle?? even with the extra work??? Or for it to stay inside a little longer and get everything else done?? But have to put up with the discomfit and pain????

[Evie76]

Over it now!!

Although - jasp, I'm thinking of you. If I'm over it - you're MEGA over it.

[Fleur]

I have this - 5 days to go and I KNOW it will all be over!

[Rhia]

Yup Im another one on the "over-it wagon"!!

I want my body back to myself
I want to be able to eat what I want
I want this puppps rash to be GONE
I want my bladder back to its original size
I want to be able to sit properly, walk properly and bend over
I want to be able to fit into my clothes normally
*TMI* I want this discharge is lessen!! *TMI*
Oh and Im sick of pre labour!!!

But in saying all that, my pregnancy has been pretty problem free. Its just hard to stay positive when you've been feeling huge for so long!

jasp- Sending you some labour vibes!! Although I do have to keep some for myself

[Me+him+bub]

il add another one...

i want to stop weeing myself when i cough, sneeze, laugh, or vomit! my bub allready weighs 2.5 kilos and its killing me!

[missya]

I my god girls I HEAR YOU!!!!!!!!!
I swing from wanting him out NOW!!!!!! and then panicing thinking of all the things I have to get done before he arrives.
I am completely over it and think I can't get anymore pregnant, can't feel any worse,any heavier, any more breathless, uncomfortable, tired, grumpy but I still have 5 weeks to go!!! ARH! the joys of pregnancy!!!.
All the best girls, we are on the home straight!
Takecare
Cheers Missy

[me83]

I heartily agree also! I have been dreaming about going shopping for "normal" clothes again. When I say shopping, I will be pretty happy with being able to examine my 8 different varieties of jeans and pick which ones I want to wear. They have been on a hanger unworn for at least 6 months...... I will not get started on the other clothes lol!

[Catastrophic]

Sticks both hand up in the air... YES im SOOOO over it

I am over throwing up everything
So over this reflux
so over being sooo run down
so over all these pains
so over the pre labour
so over having to sit down to put on shoes
so over not being able to sleep
so over everything...

Aghhhh

[tk1999]

Cass, you can put on shoes... <tk stares in amazement> please tell me how you do this - unless mine are slip ons (so much fun in the cold of winter) I have to get whoever is near to help me - this often means slipping my feet into the top and struggling to walk to the neighbours house or leaving it like that until I get to work and one of my colleagues helps me!
