I'm 33 weeks and just already feeling so done. I mean I'm working still and ok most of the day but I'm so tired and out of breath and feel huge and uncomfortable. I can't bend over and I'm struggling with my 2 year old because he wants to play and I really just need to sit down with my swollen feet up. I don't remember being quite this uncomfortable this early with DS1, but it's hard to remember. So when did you get miserable and was it different for different pregnancies?

38 weeks with LO1.
Somewhere around 30 weeks with LO2...I was soo over being uncomfortable and huge! -
37-38 weeks with LO1.
Around 30 weeks with LO2. I'm right there with ya! I can't catch my breath for anything, I'm having bad sporatic sciatic pain, and I haven't slept longer than an hour at a time in I don't know how many weeks because of hip pain. Throw in working full-time and a threenager and I'm just over it.

around 26-28 week I was really miserable. Then it got better. Then around 39 weeks I was OVER IT.

I remember being pretty uncomfortable at 32 weeks (sleeping, getting up from sitting, long commute to and from work). Over it was at 38 weeks. I had a stomach bug twice in one week, the second time I couldn't even keep water down which was obviously concerning so I had to go to the hospital. Fortunately, I didn't have to be induced or anything and felt better within 24 hours. Had a scheduled c/s the next week.

I'm closing in on 32 weeks and starting to feel very "over it". Rationally, I know I'm fine, but I just feel huge and uncomfortable. I've started hitting objects/people with my belly, my face is terribly round, the 10 items of clothing that fit me are boring, and I'm sick of sleeping on my side. Plus, I have a misaligned pelvic bone which can be pretty painful. Blerg; I want her to stay in and grow healthy so I'm eating a LOT of peanut butter M&Ms to console myself.
I've been focusing on the holidays since that time seems to fly by & I'm counting them as "freebie weeks" - so I've got only 6 weeks instead of 8 right?! -
With my first I never reached the totally done and over it stage. It helped that I stopped working at 38 weeks though, and she was born the day before her due date.
This time I've been over it for weeks. Almost 36 weeks now and I am so uncomfortable. Definitely never got this bad last time.

Around 37 weeks. After a relatively easy pregnancy, my feet and ankles started to swell. It went down hill fast. I could only wear one pair of Velcro strap sandals by the end. My feet ached constantly. It was bad.
-
I am just tired of being so big and immobile. 31 weeks. But I don't think I'm "over it" yet, to the same degree as others describe above.
-
35 weeks last time. I was so huge and swollen and uncomfortable! Gave birth at 38 weeks. Almost 22 weeks pregnant now and not looking forward to feeling that way again!
-
I guess Im glad to hear that others were similar with their second pregnancies. I just don't know how I'm going to make it another 7 weeks!!! Maybe this guy will come a little earlier. One can only hope!!
-
36-37 weeks. Luckily she came at 38 weeks!
-
I feel ya. My first I was never really over it - she came at 39 weeks. 28 weeks now and uncomfortable, and very close to 'over it.' People said the second pregnancy would fly by, and so far that isn't true! But I agree, working, toddler, larger so much faster - it all plays a role. I'm sure this one will be late
-
With my first I never hit that point - at 39 weeks I found out he was breech and I'd need a C section and thought "Ah, no, I'm not ready for him to come out!" This time I'm only 22 weeks and I'm already...not over it, but I can see that I'm going to hit that point in the future. I definitely feel bigger and more uncomfortable and am having a harder time this time than last time.
-
39 weeks with number one.
With my second I never quite got there. I actually wanted more time with her inside. She was born at 39w4d.
Still going strong at almost 32 weeks. I'm over being big but I feel fine. -
Same. With DS, I felt like I could be pregnant forever and ever. He made my pregnancy super easy and enjoyable.
With DD, I was already aching early in the 1st trimester and was like OMG! How am I going to make it. I'm in the 2nd now, and am a bit more comfortable, but still have aches and pains here and there. I foresee myself getting to that point in the 3rd trimester.
-
@travellingbee: I'm right there with you. SO much harder this time and I'm so much bigger! DD constantly wants my attention and after a full day of work and commuting, I really can't do much more. The end is near my friend
-
I was pretty much over it as soon as I hit the 3rd trimester. I was so uncomfortable!
