I feel the same way! I can't wait to meet my baby girl and also have my body back. It will be nice to enjoy a glass of wine again too!

i haven't even had a bad pregnancy and i'm over it too.

my advice to you is, walk walk walk. even if your ribs hurt and the kicks are painful, walking will make it better in the long run if you do it regularly. it also makes labor easy and controls your weight. i live in a major city so i walk nearly everywhere I go every single day and i don't know if it has anything to do with the fact that i didn't get morning sickness, but i have only gained 10lbs at 23 weeks. i never get back aches, sore ribs, sore hips. i have more energy afterwords and i feel better. you don't want your muscles weakening before labor.

ask your doctor or midwife if it's safe first but my midwife told me i can walk 2 miles a day and i usually do. depending on your situation, it might be less.

also, yoga! it helps with stretching ligaments and bone pain.

July needs to come soon! There's so many fears with being pregnant too...(which I know won't be over when they do show up but at least I can see them instead of playing a guessing game) I wanna meet my LO!

I walk over 2 miles everyday i did get less morning sickness this time to be fair but my hips are in a terrible state and my stretching pains are so much worse this time than with my son. I live in a small town so walking two miles is nothing and in fast to get to OHs mum and back is a 3 mile round trip...with hills and it hasn't done me much good so far lol. When i had my son i didn't work and so could sit around doing nothing alkaline day and man do i wish it were the same this time lol.

I appreciate that walking may help some people but not me...though i don't really have a choice x

I'm due 20th July but will be induced 2 weeks early due to GD and that date cannot come soon enough. I am massive already.....the GD is so restrictive on what you can eat and now the heartburn is becoming chronic and I am seriously considering either sleeping in the bathroom or having a toilet plumbed in next to the bed as I seem to spend most of the night on it. I know it'll all be worth it but......I WANT GUILT FREE CHOCOLATE

Bless you I'm due July 20th also. I can't imagine what it's like having GD I feel massive although that could be because I was tiny with my son and barely had a bump at this point with him. I have my GTT in a few weeks due to my sister having diabetes, even though they didn't test me for it last time...weird.

Anyway, hope you feel better, and not too long until you can have a guilt free chocolate. I'd be packing one in the hospital bag lol for after the birth xx

Thanks.....on the GD thread in gestational complications we list what treats we are taking for after delivery.....with all this time left to think and plan I am wondering if I'll have room for mine and babies stuff with all the goodies I want to take

I hope your GTT goes well
