I am officially DONE being pregnant🥲

39 weeks, I haven’t even been on maternity leave for a week yet & I’m already bored stiff just waitinggg. Every day feels like a year.
I can’t stand the fact that I could possibly go over due when I’m struggling this much. To think I could have 3 more weeks ahead of me ??? Oh lord😩how is everyone coping?
The pelvic pain, the back pain, the nausea, the insomnia with no newborn to snuggle, the heartburn, the breathlessness, the digestion issues, the hormonal breakouts (my skin hasn’t looked like this since I was 14, where is this ‘glow’ ?🧐🤣).
I’m sick of it. I’m trying to keep busy and distract myself but I’ve ran out of things to do. How are we all getting by?

Braxton Hicks

What on earth are they suppose to feel like?
I've had moments of light cramps in lower area, right by the pelvis, like period pain. And the belly gets hard but not very uncomfortable.

Are the hicks supposed to be painful?

???

Increased movements @ 40weeks

I have been awake for the last 3 hours with baby moving so much.

I called triage and they not too concerned and it’s up to me if I want to get checked out. But just feels like my baby hasn’t stopped moving so much so it’s kept me awake all night.

I don’t know what to do. I feel like I’m over thinking it. Movement is a good thing right?

Feel rubbish all the time

I can't work out if this is just part of pregnancy or there is something else wrong...

I feel ill all the time, headache, swollen glands in my neck and groin, flu like symptoms...

I'm 24 weeks pregnant, first time mum, IVF pregnancy, I've got gestational diabetes, PCOS, had really bad sickness until about 17 weeks and now it's mostly better but still get nausea sometimes. Struggling with sciatica too. I also have a bad immune system and various allergies and eczema which have all been lots worse since being pregnant. Also getting some insomnia and get a sore throat all through the night (think it's sinus related).

I feel like I'm failing at being pregnant because I'm just so unwell. Like I'm just not tough enough but this doesn't feel like a normal experience based on other pregnant women I've known.

Is this all just normal and part of pregnancy or should I be getting checked to see if there is anything else underlying? Feeling really down about it.

C section recovery

Anybody got any advice on sleeping after c section ? Now I’m home and trying to recover

Kicks but I feel it in my groin?

My little one has started kicking around 19 weeks, atleast thats when I first felt them! ❤️🩵

Hes my first baby and im still getting used to the sensation to me it feels like an eye twitch. Im now 21 weeks and hes kicking is stronger! Its just really low down i can feel a weird sensation in my vagina like its got a spasm. Its not a comfortable feeling at all 😂😂 i wish he would just kick higher but hes pummeling my cervix or close to it im assuming and it just makes me feel a bit sick🥹

Anyone else getting this or felt this sensation
