Wondering

Honestly, does anyone wish this was over already? I love being pregnant sometimes, but for the most part I just want my body back. I am tired of all the appts I have to go to- I am tired of missing work. I feel so undependable! I just want my life to return to normal, somewhat. Im not being selfish- I cannot wait to hold little Ryann in my arms! I cant wait to see what he looks like- what he sounds like- how big he will be etc. I cant wait to smell him, you know, that baby smell.

Im not saying I dont want a baby- I am just saying that I am tired of being pregnant, And wilth all of the problems I have been having, it will be nice when things can go back to some sort of normalcy!

yah it would be nice to fast forward. It is starting to hurt. baby A is keeping his head in my ribs and last night baby B was too and i could not lay down, literally could not really sit either. I looked up how to get them to readjust but no one had advice cause they had the same thing happening and did not know how to get theirs to re-adjust.

it will be nice when I can hold them and not have them in my ribs ouchie!

Nope, not yet, even with the aches and pains Im having already. Ask me once I hit the 3rd Tri, lol. But since this is my last, Im triyng to enjoy it, aches and pains included.

I WOULD be there in your shoes...but with these two being so close, I'm still trying to enjoy the little one that I have now. Right now, I could be pregnant for the next full year with her! ...Like Rachel, as me in the third trimester.

noooooooooooo not I!! oh my gosh I am sooo not ready. Thank God there's 4.5 more months left..
Sorry you're not feeling like yourself..

part of me would love to give birth tomorrow because I am already tired of the horrible aches and pains followed by no sleep secondary to them and having to urinate each time I roll over in bed, but I am trying to snap out of it and enjoy what will more than likely be my last pregnancy. I do not do pregnancy well at all and I am however grateful i have not had any complications

I am on the fence

I felt like that a few weeks ago because I was just miserable but I'm finally hitting a stage where I like it. I love feeling her move all the time. I despise having to pee every time I stand up - literally - but besides that I'm feeling great these days. The last 2 months in my last pregnancy were miserable though and I was sooooo ready so I imagine it will be like that again this time.

can we fast forward to May?

I'm with Rachel - this is my last one so I am trying to enjoy every moment of it. Plus I am totally freaked out about having 3 kids!!!! I have just started to feel that I look more "cute" than I had been looking (the new haircut helped) and for some reason with this one I actually have a sex drive so that has been pretty fun actually

But ask me again in a few weeks and I'm sure I will say bring on May!!! I am ready for a cocktail though, that is the only thing that comes to mind quite a bit....maybe cause my kids are driving me nuts, LOL.

haha- guess we all have mixed emotions. I am just really impatient. I remember with my last pregnancy I was scared for the baby to come, because I was scared of having more kids. But, this time around it's like "heh- whats one more" =)

No, I am definitely not to that point yet. I am so preoccupied with school and clinicals that I barely have time to concentrate on the pregnancy the way I wish I could. I haven't even bought a single thing for it yet. I also haven't started cleaning and sorting the extra bedroom to make room for it yet. There is so much left to do and I graduate in 3 months so I am glad I have a little longer, lol! Now ask me again on May 10 (the day after I graduate

) and my answer will probably be different.

I'm torn... I am loving feeling this baby all day but I am not loving the hip pain & sleep issues.
I am so excited to hold and love the baby (and most of all to find out the sex and see his/her face).
I think oh man...20 more weeks seems like so long but thus far this pregnancy has flown by for me.

I'm not ready for the 'cute belly' days or feeling my baby moving inside me to be over. My DH are enjoying, shall I say, all of the freedom, too.

However, the aching hips, back, my popping ear, constipation, ugly maternity clothes (I never despised them like this before - I just can't stand them), insomnia -and- exhaustion, ravenous hunger, getting really winded when I work-out, and constantly peeing can all LEAVE NOW!

As far as being prepared in the material-sense --- we haven't even begun! hehe

Regarding another person in our family, ITA with this:

"heh- whats one more"

I can't wait to see, smell, cuddle, kiss, and watch my DH and kids with this new little one. I am also not looking at all forward to being huge when it's hot out, so I know that I'll be ready to be done by June. But, for now, I do want to cherish this pregnancy. I don't yet know if I'll get to experience this again? One gift at a time...

I am sorta there. I am not uncomfortable and can sleep okay - so no 3rd trimester complaining. But I don't like that I am still so sick and sooooo tired all the time that I can't keep up on everything. I can't keep up on me to begin with. Heck, I can't even keep my legs shaved.

But I feel like the kid's homework, laundry, meals, work ... OH! I could go on and on - are struggling because of this pregnancy. I just would love to feel good for awhile. I was thinking the other day that it has only been for a few hours of a time (since October) that I have really felt good. The rest of the time I have just been miserable (and it doesn't help that I am coming off of a cold that went into sinus and ear infections). It is sometimes hard to remember that I won't feel like this the rest of my life.

My DH has been wonderful about all of it and has picked up sooooo much slack. He is my hero.

However, I would love to be pulling my weight a bit more. And to feel like I am a contributing member of my marriage, family and work environment.

I am with Rachel and others who said knowing it is my last pregnancy, I am enjoying it- even the hard parts! I always get the "I don't want to be pregnant anymore thing" in the 8th and 9 month though- so I am pretty sure it will still feel like forever by then. LOL I can understand the feeling though...even though it is early! I am definitely not ready for the baby!!!! One- they wake up and cry! LOL They are NOISY! So in that respect, they are easier right now! Nice and quiet. But, when June comes and the baby is born I know I will be thrilled to hear the cries and noises.

I am excited but not ready at all. I will totally miss having little wiggles inside and all that fun stuff of being pregnant. There is stuff I won't miss, but like others I am trying to just enjoy the pregnancy.

I know how you feel, but at the same time this is my first so it's a great experience and I want to cherish it.

Hang in there, girl! We're halfway there.

emuone · #17 (**permalink**) 02-04-2008, 03:04 PM

I want to be 40weeks tomorrow too. What I do is look in the mirror and realize I'm not as big as I feel.

sliceofcake · #18 (**permalink**) 02-05-2008, 05:05 AM

I wish it was june already! I am so blessed that I have had very few symptoms and no complications. Some days I dont even feeel pregnant! But I am ready to have my baby and hold them and kiss them. Pregnancy just feels like it moves very slow sometimes. I want my baby!
