the usual pregnant woman rant Posted: 06-24-08 12:56pm
So i"m 34 weeks and miserable, actually
from my last ultrasound and my
measurements the Dr thinks I'm closer to
36 1/2 weeks, but for whatever reason they
wont change my due date...either way I've
officially become a miserable pregnant
woman. I haven't slept in I don't even
know how many days...I don't understand
insomnia and how someone can be so
exhausted and still can't sleep...either
way that's me. yep still throwing up at
least once or twice a day...usually in the
nights and evenings, and sometimes I think
I could kill my husband for absolutely no
reason...poor guy. I'm still working
although i think everyone here is afraid
of me cause i'm so on edge...kinda feel
like I could erupt into tears at any given
second for absolutely no reason. Now I
know these last few weeks are the toughest
but good lord I don't think I'm gonna make
it...unless I can somehow crawl in a dark
room alone and stay there for the
remainder of my pregnancy...there's gotta
be someway I can work that out. Is it bad
I'm hoping for my baby to come early so
this will all be over with? Ok pregnant
woman rant is over...thanks for listening.

Oh I hear ya! From what I gather, what you
are experiencing is normal. I have the
same urge to crawl into a cave and hide.
Everything I read warned me about the 3rd
trimester mood swings....but they didn't
tell me I'd want to pack my bags and run
away from it all. I'm 30 weeks but
measuring 34 weeks according to fundal
height...and it's not fun when everyone
that looks at you asks if you are having
twins. Don't get me wrong....it took me
2.5 years and IVF to get to this stage,
I'm very grateful to be pregnant, but I
can really identify with feeling miserable
even though I'm grateful
hang in there sistah.

OH MY GOSH!! Your so right I almost killed
a lady at the grocery store last weekend
for insisting I was having twins, I got
the look of death in my eye after
explaining to her for the 3rd time NO i
wasn't having twins...I mean god I've only
gained 18lbs, all baby and yes I have a
basketball under my shirt but when people
say that I don't think they realize how
hurtful it is. To bad it's not in our
baby budget for me to just rent a hotel
room away from everybody for the next few
weeks until the baby comes. They should
suggest that to first trimester moms so
they can start preparing and save up.

Ask any woman who is pregnant or has ever
been pregnant, there is always some lady
at the grocery store, someone's mother,
SOMEONE who will tell them how huge they
are and how they look like they are going
to have twins. Its like the big pregnancy
joke that is not funny to anyone who is
pregnant.
