constant braxtons and moody as hell

this isnt really a question more of a whinge.... i've been having constant braxton hicks since saturday night after i went for a walk with a friend to try to bring on labour. Anyway i get them all day everyday and even tho they r painless most of the time they are starting to drive me crazy!!! anyone else have this??
besides a constant tight stomach my moods today have been absolutely horrible!! worse than normal (i have no patience in pregnancy!) the slightest little thing goes wrong and i go off.... my poor hubby and son!

Yeah I had them towards the end of jacob about 4 weeks leading up they go more and more tighter and tighter..... and they drove me nuts!! the moods I didnt notice as much cause I didnt have another child to look after.... But I dare say I might be just like you towards the end of this one! Even tonight I said to DH..." I want my body back to myself!" hehe...

Sounds like you are not far away now but!! :D
Good luck with the labour and hope all goes well!

You poor thing! I was lucky not to have pain at all before my waters broke buy my SIL has had them for abot 3 weeks and still no bub. She's EXTREMELY moody! Don't blame her really cause she's in quite a bit of pain with nothing actually happening. Hope it all happens soon for you.

yep i am in the same boat here!!!!! dnt think i could be moodier if i tried lol and the bh are pretty constant and sometimes painful too!
add in tiredness and queeziness and uve got me lol laying on the lounge winging to everyone that it hasn't happened yet hahaha...

Me too! Me too! I've been getting them for weeks and keep thinking something surely must be happening but no!:( This is number 3 for me and it's the worse it's been! I don't ever think I've ever been this grumpy or emotional either... I feel so bad for my girls having to put up with a Mummy from hell! All I can say is Bring on the Birth!!!!!!:pray: Goodluck!

Nell, are you drinking RLT ?? Perhaps you could be over doing it. Just a thought.

With my last bub I had shocking BHs from around 20 weeks onwards. Towards the end I would sit there some nights contracting off and on for 2 - 3 hours. would drive me mad wondering if this was it or not.

Hoping for you that thes BH's turn into real contractions very soon for you hun. In the mean time know that they are doing some good for your body and at this stage probably your cervix too :hug:

Thanks everyone for your replies, nothings changed im still getting constant BH and still don't have much patience! I just want the labour already lol altho when i think this may be it i start thinking 'no not yet!!' My DS has passed on his cold so i'm feeling absolutely lousy as can be along with the BH, sore pelvis (rolling over in bed is a nightmare!!) and the cramp ive had in my leg since 5am this morning. I just can't win!!! Sorry for the whinge.... I'm just so fed up!

Trish - I havent had any RLT i was going to have it but totally forgot! Bit late now lol

Only 3 days to go lets hope this one isn't late!!! (DS was 9 days late and induced!)

Good luck to u all it's so nice being able to relate to other pregnant women that know what im talking about!

mummynelly - i'm still right here with ya!!! rolling over is the pits and i am exactly the same all day long i am like ohhh come on for gods sake where is this labour thing but then sometimes i get a twinge or something and think oh no i'm not ready hahahahahaha big labour vibes to both of us hope it happens asap!!

I'll add my sympathies too - feeling the same way myself. :( And I've still got 3 weeks to go. The BH have started to feel like PMS, (which is a good sign, really, but much more tiring and miserable to live with!) the hips HURT like crazy, especially in bed, can't sleep worth anything, just want this baby OUT. But then maybe not - what about getting up at night for nursing and diaper changes, what about colicky baby (had one - terrible!), what about cracked, sore bleeding nipples and thrush, what about lochia forever, what about, what about having to carry this baby and not having my hands free for my other DDs, etc, etc,
Can't win. :(
But we won't stay pregnant forever, and eventually we will get to meet these little ones, and have our bodies back. Sort of. ;) Here's hoping it's sooner rather than later!
