34 weeks has just about broken my spirit LOL. Everything hurts. And I just keep swelling and swelling. I'm beat up!
When did you get to the point that you were no longer enjoying yourself during pregnancy?
-
I am very lucky that I really did enjoy my pregnancy and even though I was a hot sweaty mess in the middle of summer, I didn't have swelling, just the normal discomfort of being so large. You're almost there!!!
-
Around 34 weeks as well. I was so over being pregnant I tried convincing DH that the baby was going to come early. I was sore down south and the big belly was getting too heavy for me. Don't worry mama, it'll be over soon!
-
37 weeks - when my braxton hicks started in full force (and continued til I was induced 12 days late....talk about a broken spirit!) Hang in there!!
-
38 weeks. I was on bed rest from 30-37 weeks. One week back on my feet was enough!!
-
In my 32-34th week. I was so done.
-
about 35 weeks I was so over it. She came in my 37th week because she knew mama needed a break from being pregnant.
-
Two days before my due date I just hit the wall where I was done. I wanted my body back, I wanted to sleep on my back, and I wanted the heartburn to stop! Fortunately, DD was born on her due date so I didn't have to be over it for long!
Hang in there, the end is in sight!
-
30 weeks.
-
About 6 weeks?
I have not enjoyed pregnancy one bit.
-
@boiledpnut: Ha I was just about to say the same thing! Pregnancy has been one whole load of bleugh for me but, that said, I constantly remind myself how lucky I am to be pregnant and even now, being so fat and swollen and burning with heartburn, want to go to the full 40 weeks for baby's sake.
-
@travelgirl1: Whew! I'm glad I'm not the only one! I just keep telling myself it'll all be worth it in the end.
-
30 weeks...I'm at 31 weeks right now with twins and measuring as if I were 40 weeks with a single baby. I'm so tired of the heartburn!!
-
I was lucky & really really enjoyed pregnancy. For me, I was done with work at 39 weeks. I had my LO at 40w1d, and the whole time during labor I kept saying - I don't have to go to work tomorrow!!!
-
I am more over it every week, but at 32 weeks I definitely was like, "Okay...How will I make it?"
You know what? I take that back...It's not that I'm over PREGNANCY. I'm over WORKING AND PREGNANCY. If I wasn't working, or didn't have such a demanding and physically demanding job, I think I'd be pretty "Meh" about pregnancy. But WORK - OMG! Why won't they leave a preg alone??????
ETA: at 33 weeks, I am basically daring work people to agitate me, let's put it that way. If you are annoying, I have zero patience for you, and my sunshine and smiles routine has totally faded. I'm happy when I'm at home though!
-
When I hit 40 weeks. Every day past that was hell. I loved being pregnant, right until then!
-
Weirdly enough, I am not at that point yet, at over 37 weeks. I don't know if this sounds strange, but I have really, early enjoyed being pregnant and while I am over some of the growing pains and discomforts, I am actually going to miss parts of it. I am so, so eager to meet this little baby, though!
-
36 weeks. Just got sick of it and missed my old body and being comfy and being able to drink.
-
Never
I had Sawyer at 38 weeks, and wish I would have had another week or 2 of being pregnant.
-
I'd say 39 weeks. I was so ready to get her out! Lol.
-
I hit my wall at 37 weeks both times.
-
Despite a really rough start with some scares, and sick leave at the end, and now being 40+6, I definitely only had days or stretches of few days where I was really like "ok....let's get this overwith".
There have definitely been some tough, awful, awful days that I would never wish on anyone, but the positive days are what I am trying to focus on, even though at times....it's definitely tough!
-
My best friend is 36 weeks and she's miserable as anything now! I reckon she started feeling like she was so over it about 33 weeks - her whole body is hurting now, she can't get comfortable, she's swollen everywhere she can be swollen - she's still so beautiful though!!!!
-
I did not enjoy being pregnant either, but did try to make the best of it. The third trimester was really challenging and by the time 32-34 weeks hit I was so ready to have the show over with. I was excited to have her at 37 weeks. I'm not sure my body would have made another 3 weeks.
-
Probably 35 or 36 weeks. I had such bad pelvic pain and wasn't getting much sleep due to my body being in pain all over.
-
@jholler25: When is your last day of work?! I hope it is soon. I have exactly 4 more weeks to go.
-
Once I went past my due date
-
I'm not over it yet but I am sick of eating healthy!
Last time, I was over it around 37 weeks.
-
last week at 35 wks.
now at 36 wks, i need this next month to fly by!!!!
-
@highwire: My last day of work is Nov 21 (this is jholl, changed my username!)...I have had a horrendous couple of weeks, and have been so busy that I have even been too exhausted to keep up with my blog or hellobee or really anything! But starting now, I can kind of take it down a notch, so I'm hoping that will really help! I am 34 weeks, and getting induced at 39w3d, so I feel like the end is SO near that nothing else really matters - in the grand scheme of things. I'm settling into a mentality of doing the bare minimum from here on out and just concentrating on getting by and getting enough rest because none of the work I do over the next 4 weeks is going to change anything or be life-altering. I'm just glad the couple of weeks of hell I've had are over and my workload will be so much lighter here at the end....
-
I'm now 40w+1 --- I'm over the waiting! Now I'm nervous about being induced! Physically I'm OK... Not sleeping great, but haven't been sleeping for a couple months, so I'm basically used to it - and I figure it's good prep for baby.
I feel like the worst part now is everyone asking if the baby is here yet for the last week, and the stress it's putting on me & dh! we just want him HERE!
-
I was over it at 8 weeks : ( I had a pretty hard pregnancy and haven't enjoyed being pregnant at all unfortunately. I'm about 38 weeks now and I'm REALLY ready to be done. My doctor will do elective induction at 39 weeks but DH is totally against it, and I know he's right especially since she's measuring really small so we'll keep on cooking until 41 weeks if we have to.
-
About 7 weeks. I'm 8 now. It's just so awful.
-
@LazyLightning: oh no! It will get better!!! Just keep looking for that second trimester!!
I was over it around 37 weeks or so. Her head was so far engaged, it was horrible. I couldn't walk. I totally understood then why women waddled while pregnant.
-
At about 32/33 weeks I was ready to be done! I was getting impatient and annoyed. Now that LO is here, I wish I had appreciated how much easier an inside baby is to take care of
-
@LazyLightning: aww - hang in there! once you get into your second tri you should start feeling better.
-
My whole pregnancy pretty much sucked. I went from migraines and nausea in my first trimester to swelling and back pain in my my third. But I was still happy to keep my LO in there to cook as long as possible. I guess I never really got over it, I think it helped to focus on the end result.
-
37w4d. Yesterday. I've been starting to feel contractions and my back really hurts. I'm done.
I have not enjoyed pregnancy one bit.
I had Sawyer at 38 weeks, and wish I would have had another week or 2 of being pregnant.
