Q: This Baby Is Never Coming!!!

Every single day I get a little bigger, a little more tired and a little more slow. I'm at the point where i'm passing out sleep when I get off work because working just requires far too much energy. Heck putting on socks requires far too much energy. It's like i'm engaged in a vicious to the death battle with my foot. Even though i'm passing out i'm not getting a full night's sleep cuz i'm either uncomfortable or have to pee. I got excited because they said that I was in early labor for the past few days. But it stopped yesterday. Nothing today either. The darn little bugger is really starting to tick me off. I don't walk far anymore cuz it gives me contractions. My feet hurt from all the darn weight. And now I only have 3 maternity shirts that still fit and only one is appropriate for work. I refuse to buy new ones cuz the little brat should be here soon. I don't want to go out and spend $90 on three more tops cuz with my luck he would come right after I walked out of the mall and the maternity still isn't returnable!! Plus I really don't want to spend money on more maternity tops if he actually plans on making an appearance soon. There's other more useful things that I could spend the money on! Sorry this is so long. I'm just ticky bcuz I feel like i've been pregnant forever.

Your Not Alone!!
I know exactly how you feel tigres I don't have the energy to do anything anymore.. Lucky for me I haven't had to work through this whole pregnancy... I don't think I could the pregnancy is enough work for me... I just can't wait until I will be able to sleep with out having to wake up every hour to pee.. Well wait that'll just be replaced with a crying baby but I still look forward to that alot more.. I'm getting to anxious to get this over with, I just want to hold my baby boy and it feels im going to be pregnant forever.. Well I know if he doesn't come soon hes not going to have a choice once the 11th gets here.. Well good luck to you and I hope he comes soon!!

Aaaawwww you guys are soo close and it's not fair. I am looking forward to my 36 week mark to know if my baby is ready to be delivered. I am not strong enough to wait around for her to get ready to come out on her own.

I know it feels like your skoot will never come kay, but he will be here before you know it. The peeing with be replaced by a crying little voice. I can't wait to see both of your little skoots. Just hang in there. The day will come.

I can smell him .Kay...He's on his way!! Just give him time...I would've died to have her gain more weight in my belly!!! Maybe not, cuz I don't know if i'd have been able to spit out a 9lb'er naturally!!!! Lol....I'm still praying for you!!

Aww I know how you feel I felt the same way towards the end of my pregnancy. But 4 days after my due date and 40 hours of labour later he finally made his appearance lol. Before you know it you'll be holding your baby in your arms.

I'm hoping so cuz now i've got acid reflux going on. I'm going next week to see how big he is and see if he's any closer to coming. I don't understand how last week I could be 40% effaced and this week I don't feel like i'm any closer to labor. :evil:

You poor sweetie!! I can totally and completely feel where you're coming from. It's soooo hard to even concentrate bcuz every day that you wake up it's like you're thinking to yourself is today the day? And then when the baby doesn't come it's so frustrating!! I'd give you a hug but I don't think we'd make it with the preggo bellies! :lol:

I cant believe youre still working! I couldnt do that. Are you going to work all the way till the very end? I quit my job at three months prego bc my morning sickness was so bad. It was every day, all day, I could barely function.

i'll be working until I go into labor. Which I hope happens while I am at home and not at work or on the way to work. Grrr! That would suck supremely. Ack i've got a 3:30 appt who I hope will blow me off so I can have an easy rest of the day. I actually just had another contraction but it was really mild so I guess the prodromal is back. Boo!

I am soooo sorry that you are going through such agony! Just blame it on your hubby, b/f, s/o or whatever, that is what I did and when I worked in labor & delivery, I kind of felt sorry for the guys as you knew what the females were going through but they would tell the daddy's to be that they would never have sex with them again, see what you did to me., it was kind of funny in a way.
How much longer do you have to work? One time my water did brake at work. Can't you wear sandles to work? Do you have to wear socks?, I am surprised they are allowing you to work with the liability, my problem was was that my Dr. Was wrong on my due date and that was a long time ago and they wanted me to work. Do they make you sign some type of paper that they will not be responsible if something happens during the pregnancy, I know they do that at alot of places now.
Hopefully your birth of your little one will come soon and you will be able to forget about all of this. I totally understand, I have been there!
The best to you and all!
