Its totally normal to feel that way. I ended up going 5 days over. I was so big I actually put on 30 kg!! Bub was nearly 5 kgs tho. I could hardly sleep waking up with numb side as well. My ankles were that swallon I felt like michelin man.
Dont worry, chin up! It will all be over soon and u will be holding a precious new baby in your arms and it will all be worth it.
I know this is the last thing you want to hear but try to enjoy the last few weeks before bubs arrives savour ever kick and having that beautiful big belly. Take the time to take some beautiful pics of you with you belly even if you just get a friend to do it, buy a belly cast off ebay and make that up...I really wish I had of done that, take baths with some candles and music get a preg massage because ewven though it feels like forever once that bubs is out you will never again experience them kicking you in painful and uncomfortable ways again and looking back you pregnancy will feel like only a second in time!
I definitely miss that undesribable and awe filled experience of being pregnant! and I was vomitting at least 20 times a day for 26weeks and then got gd at 28weeksand ended up on 4insulin shots a day and I still miss it
oh man i feel like this and i am not even 30 weeks yet. i spent 2 hrs in bed last night crying cause everythign was just poo lol. when i do seem to get comfy i either get heart burn or my hands and feet go numb. i woke up this moring thinkin i am gonna have this baby at 36 weeks lol dont know y pron convinced myself in my sleep last night.
I have 4 sleeps till my EDD.....I am at the point where I wonder if this bubs will ever come out. He can't come today as its DS#2s birthday but after that I am all for this bubba making an appearance .
For me this is my 4th and last baby so I appreciate the kicks and I love my tummy....but yes I am in some pain and discomfort and would like to get bubs out, although I feel no where ready for the pain .
I have just hit the 'I am over this' in the last two days. I am sick of the heat - I am in Adelaide. I still have another week and a half until my hubby comes down, it's been a week and a half since I have seen him. It is the longest we have ever had apart. My left leg is aching - courtesy of the vein I can see running down the back, not to mention the cramps I get if I even think about pointing my toes. My belly feels tight and uncomfortable, with a few sore spots, made worse by a bum stretching it. I now feel refluxy too courtesy of the not hot butter chicken for tea. Plus I just want my baby. I am starting to remember all the horror stories too, so that makes you worry.
I know I can't go into labour just yet, but come Easter Sunday when DH arrives it will be 'game on'. I have served baby with a two weeks notice eviction. I swear I am going nuts.
It seems this is pretty common, I was reading somewhere that you need to be 'over it' to go into labour. I really do hope it works.
Sorry for the big whinge, but I know you girls know how I feel
Luey - I know what you mean about the heat.. I'm in SA too. No air con either!
I'm not quite at the 'over it' stage, but I am looking forward to meeting bubs... got lots to do before it comes though but because of the heat (and I only finished work last week) I haven't managed to get it all done yet!
I'm sure when I start to get sick of myself, it will be nice to come in here and vent! Nice to know you're not alone...
Chin up everyone - in a month or 4 we'll all look back and smile!
Macca, hun, I was exactly the same. I was totally over it toward the end and was induced at 40w + 3d.
Get used to the sleepless nights though...I used to take my sleep for granted until Madeleine came along. Man, I have never been so tired but it's worth every second only to see them every day! And I wouldn't change it for the world mind you. She's now sleeping 10pm-6am which is heaven.
I really hope you can get sleep before your little one comes along, sleep all day if you can! LOL
