I'm bored. So .I'm going to tell you guys about my night. &.Then complain. Lucky you! .Chris &.I celebrated our anniversary tonight. He took me to dinner at .Bennigans (one of my faaavorite restaraunts ever!).. It was deeeelish. I always get the same thing, though.. Chicken strip dinner, two sides of fries, &no honey dijoun. Ha! Chris got a 10oz steak, cajun shrimp, &a loaded baked potato. I stole some of his steak. That caca was gooood. We just sat &talked &laughed &it was just really nice. After that, we went to the movies! Yay! We both really really really love going to the movies. We saw .Night .At .The .Museum... Oh my god, it's so funny! It's my new favorite movie. Have any of you guys seen it? If you haven't, you should. It's so good. I was bad &ate .Dippin' .Dots, a large blue .Icee (my weakness, man), &popcorn. Gabe was going nuuuuutts! Sugar rush! Hahaha. Anyway. It was a really really nice time &.I feel so lucky &blessed to have .Chris in my life. He's so amazing &.I'm so in .Love &.I can't imagine what my life would be like without him. End sappy love gush. Now .I'm going to complain. I .A.M. S.O. S.I.C.K. O.F. B.E.I.N.G. P.R.E.G.N.A.N.T. .I only have a little more than 2 months left... But man, can this just be over, please?! I seriously pee every 20 minutes &half the time when .I go, hardly any pee even comes out. My hip hurts super bad whenever .I walk, work is getting super hard &.I keep having weird episodes whenever .I'm on my feet for more than a freakin' hour.. I like, black out &get really light headed &dizzy &need to sit down for an hour to feel even a little bit better.. I can't get up from the couch without help, .I can't bend over, .I can't roll over in bed without causing a small earthquake &it's like, a huge ordeal.. If .I'm laying down, .I absolutely cannot sit up on my own, &.I have to get somebody to come help me.. I'm so sensitive &moody &emotional &irrational, &.I can't hear myself being absolutely ridiculous but .I just can't stop myself. I can't sleep at night because .I can't get comfortable at all, &even when .I do fall asleep, .I wake up literally at least once every hour.. My skin is sooo broken out &it's so dry &.I have huge red planets all over my face. My stretchmarks are so itchy. I can't put on my own socks or shoes.. I even need help putting on my underwear &pants.. I keep getting sick, &.I'm just so over this whole thing &.I want to see my son. I'm so sorry for being stupid &venting about it.

I'm not even 32wks yet... Crying
or Very sad

everyone gets sick of being pregnant towards the end. I started getting sick of it about two months before I was due too. I was literally crying all the time, b*tching, moaning and evil. My mum says that I was the queen of b*tches. But it's okay, I think everyone is like that when they're that far along. Now some tips that may help you.

Drink your fluids early in the day when the bathroom is convenient. Of course you're still going to sip throughout the day but drinking the majority in the morning will get most of your peeing done in the morning. That helped me so that I didn't have to pee as much at work. Stop drinking liquid about two hours before bed and pee immediately before getting into bed. That makes the night time peeing less. My advice on the hip/work situation is to try to stop earlier than february if you can because it's only going to get worse as the baby gets bigger. I had similar dizzy/faint episodes throughout my pregnancy you can look up the post if you want but they were bad. They got worse. And they happened more when I had to stand up for more than 2 or 3 minutes. The last month and a half of my pregnancy when I would go to the store, I had to ride around in one of those little zoomy chairs for the disabled or I would never have been able to grocery shop. As for laying down if you need to get out of bed on your own, try rolling to the side, always worked for me, oh and don't sleep in the middle of the bed or rolling will get you nowhere! Lol! As far as sitting, do not sit in any chair or couch that is soft if it doesn't have arms or you aren't near the arms. You'll definitely get stuck. Harder chairs are better than softer ones to get out of, that's good to remember too. As far as being uncomfortable when you sleep have you tried pillows under your hip and/or inbetween your legs? That helped me. If chris sleeps with you have him sleep with his back facing yours kind of curled up (not completely) and with his back pressed into the curve of yours, works miracles!! Now for shoes, invest in some sneakers with elastic straps instead of ties. Brace your knee up on a coffee table with your foot behind you. Makes it easy to put on your shoes that way. Or just buy some slide ons (may not be to good in winter tho...Meh!) cocoa butter for stretch marks really works (not sure about fading but it stops them from itching plus if you get palmers you'll smell like cookies) I can't help you with tips for underwear and pants because I had to have help for those too, lol!! I can't help you with the breakouts because I couldn't clear my skin up for anything plus it started getting patchy! Eeew!! The patches were nash-tay! Hope this helped a little!! Lovies!!

I'm about 10 days behind you arcadia. I get so crabby about everything. I know when i'm being a total .Bag to everyone around and I know I shouldn't but, like you I can't help it. I have to, or at least in the moment, I feel like I have to. Then, I feel so bad about being nasty that I cry. Sometimes I feel like i'm bi-polar, because that's how fast my moods change. I'm happy when i'm at work, because 3 days a week I have my own office and nobody bugs me, and I have nobody to crab at. You are not alone!!! Tigresacanela24 gave some awesome advice with the physical things. Your in the home stretch. You look great. When you look into your son's eyes it'll all be worth it.

Krissy I couldn't put on my own undies either. Mostly because they wouldn't pull up over my a-ss anymore though, so I always went without, and got myself a yeast infection. I know it sucks hun, I use to be in tears when I had to roll over in bed cause it was sooo darn painful, but you are going to get the most beautiful gift out of all this, and like labour you will forget all about it!

Thank you so much, guys. Kay, you're the greatest. The only thing on there that .I already do is use .Cocoa .Butter (.Palmer's, even! I do smell like cookies! Whee!) .I'm definitely telling my boss that .I'm done. February 5th. My last day. I'm going to try the things you suggested. Thank you so much. <3 .Mommy35, .I didn't realize our due dates were that close! I cry about everything, too. Same thing as you, .I'll snap &say something mean &then 2 minutes later start crying hysterically because .I feel so awful. .Tanya, you always make me feel better. I can't get my undies on because .I can't bend over far enough, &.I can't get my legs up far enough. I have to have .Chris help me, &even though he's my boyfriend &whatever, it's still emabarassing because .I feel so helpless that .I can't do anything for myself! Hahah. I just can't wait to have .Gabe in my arms.

Im sorry babe. Trust me, we all know what you're going thru.. I do especially since .Caty was so big.. I hated it. Get yourself a heating pad to put behind you when you're resting at night. It will help your hips.
