So I’m 36 weeks exactly and I’m constantly feeling tired exhausted my body feels so heavy and then the shooting pains and. The pains that come and go and the pain gradually gets worse. And then disappears I’m ready for her to be here now. The loose stools are starting to annoy me also I’m just crying for no reason at all I feel like I’m just feeling sorry for my self is anyone feeling similar?

Completely get all of this!! The last bit is the hardest and the annoying thing is that they come when they are ready! I'm much more tired this time round and completely ready for this baby to come out. How long have you had loose stools for? Are you managing to eat and drink normally with it? X

I’m eating and drinking fine I’ve had loose stools for the last say 3-4 days. But I don’t go to the toilet everyday Aldo. I have gestational diabetes so the constant pricking of the fingers and the insulin. Is not getting to me every time I do it I’m just so over all this and this is my first im just ready for her to be here I think Also have trouble feeling her move I’ve been in and out because of it and. Recently I’ve felt her a lot and I’m not even sure I’ve felt her move at all today xx

It's a really crap time but it'll be so worth it! I keep telling myself that I've made it through 8 months and this is the last little push! Doesn't make it any easier but it is the final bit! Take each day as it comes and try and do something for yourself each day. It's such a tiny part of this whole thing but I totally empathise with how shit it feels right now x

I’m so excited to have her here I think it’s getting me down and emotional I had the worst pregnancy also I‘be not thrown up that much yeah I have GD and PGP but other than that I’ve had a really good pregnancy my mental health has been the best and it’s like I haven’t got depression or anxiety the only thing that’s worried me was the no movements and the pain I was getting at the same time but I was in hospital for 2 days for that and had a scan but I’m just so ready to have her in my arms and having cuddles now xxxxx

I had the same symptoms as u at 36 weeks but I'm 38 now and stools are regular again

I hope soo I’m not fussed if she came now. I’m really not. I just hate the fact that I’m emotionally exhausted and I’m so tired all the time. But I’m waiting for the iron tablets to kick in I’m just emotionally and mentally exhausted. Xxx.

Yep lol today has been a wild one. Feel sick again and on antibiotics so feel worse but I have to eat to feel better but it makes me feel acidic and sick. I feel massive I miss having control over my body all I want to eat is junk because I'm sad and it seems to be the only thing that doesn't make me feel sicker. 36 weeks and I'm done lol

I feel you! I literally feel like I can’t do anything because everything hurts 🤣 and to top it off I have a 17 month old around my ankles 😩 x

And I’ve woken up to period pains so that’s great. Xxx. It is exactly how my period would be like 😩😩😩

Take it as a good sign ! Body is prepping for baby out time
