just venting ..
38 weeks tomorrow, scheduled to get induced on my due date (22nd) and honestly wanting to avoid induction but also i want this baby out. i’ve tried sex, lots of walking and going up and down stairs, any random position to get her to move down lower. at my 36 week appt i was 1cm dilated. i have another appointment on friday and will have my OB check for dilation.
i love my daughter, and im so glad she’s safe and cozy but at this point, girl needs to come out. i miss my body, or being able to get out of bed and not feel like my hips are getting dislocated. is this feeling normal?? to feel like pregnancy is a never ending battle of joy and sorrow all at the same time?? i’m just so over being pregnant and exhausted all the time. i’m constantly feeling like i’m failing my household and my fiancé. i can’t stand longer than an hour, standing at the sink to do dishes is such a bigger chore than ever. laundry is basically a non-existent thing unless im out of clothes that actually fit me comfortably.
just needing to vent. my last baby was born when i was 16 and somehow this pregnancy is even harder than my first.
