Anyone else suddenly feeling very uncomfortable around 30 weeks? RANT THREAD!!

[Amy89]

30 weeks on Sunday, and suddenly I'm sooo uncomfortable I can't find a comfy position on the sofa, in bed, standing up, on the chair...anywhere! If I slouch, I can't breathe. If I lay down, I get heartburn and can't breathe. If I stand up, I get achy legs and CAN'T BREATHE!! If I need to turn over in bed, I have to wake up and move my belly over, if by the grace of god, I do manage to get half comfy, I then need a wee. OH doesn't get it, I make myself pillow nests, got footstools galore, loose clothes (sometimes no clothes), I'm just SO FED UP of feeling constantly full and sick, and having to share my lung space!
Oh, and I can't go 2 hours without a row with someone, somewhere! People make me so angry that I daren't leave the house!


Anyone else need to rant about the not-so-hot side of pregnancy?

il be 33 weeks tomorrow and last couple of days ive been soooo uncomfortable! i hope you feel better soon

I can relate. I can hardly breathe, especially while laying on my back or slouching. I can't even kiss oh because I get so breathless having to share my air! And sleep? Uugh I get so jealous watching oh sleep and snore so peacefully and I'm up turning from my left side to my right side, to sitting up, to laying on my back. Then lets not forget to mention once I finally get a little comfy my bladder kicks in full force and it literally hurts walking to the bathroom to release it! And if I finally fall asleep, I get kicked and jabbed by LO until I'm up again. It's not so great and I'm hoping these 10 weeks speed by.

Yes ! Lol I can't walk for long because I feel over in a marathon . Pelvis pain ,hard to breathe and the back pain ....ouch lol we all know it's totally worth it and I'll probably miss being pregnant very much once LO is born but wow this is hard work lol x

31+1 and yep can definitely relate! If I hear anyone say how much they enjoy pregnancy I'm going to drop to my knees and beg to know their secret...

 

[lotuspetals]

That's precisely when things got really uncomfortable for me too. I wish I could say it gets better...but maybe you just get a little more used to it. Lol.

..I'm saying this and I still likely have a month to go. My back is killing me already, so it's hard to imagine another month of belly growth. Also, his kicks are getting so strong, they can really hurt sometimes. As far as the heartburn goes, I keep a bottle of Tums by the bed. ..getting ready for this to be over. Pregnancy isn't so cute anymore.

I'm 30 weeks tomorrow and really feel your pain, I've been so uncomfortable for a few days and to top it all off I've got a cold so if its not baby waking me up its because my nose is blocked! I've excepted that tiredness is just part of my life now and I wouldn't mind if I could sit or lay comfortably but it just doesn't seem possible, oh and heartburn! My god I wish I could taste something else other than stomach acid, nothing works to calm it down! I'm drinking 4 pints of milk a day as its the only thing that calms it down slightly! Really hoping these ne t 10(ish) weeks flyby!!!

I just spent 20 minutes ugly crying on my couch because I can't find a comfortable position to sit/lay. Thank you for this rant, I've felt so alone in this it's nice to hear someone else going through and feeling the exact same way as I do!

 

[Perplexed]

I can totally relate! That's when I started feeling this extreme discomfort. A few nights this week I started crying in bed due to being in so much pain, feeling exhausted and finding no comfortable position to sleep in.

 

[Amy89]

I was on the verge of crying last night, in the end I just went to bed at half 9! Getting a new chair tomorrow & I'm really hoping that's a little more comfortable! Woke up a record 8 times to pee last night & I'm sure I didn't get more than an hour undisturbed sleepy today!

OH GOD yes. Every time someone says 'Pregnancy is so beautiful' or something along those lines I start mentally mapping out the last few moments of their lives... and it fills me with glee.

I'm not saying that the creation of life isn't wonderful and all that... but I speezed (that's sneezing and peeing at the same time) twice today and to think that anyone finds that beautiful... well, I just fail to agree.

Ahh yes, me too!

 

[claudinator]

I find it hard to get off the couch and my bum goes dead if I sit on a hard chair. I get DH to push, pull and roll me. And the cat jumped on my boob yesterday and fluid came out I screamed the house down.

 

[Geegee_18]

I woke up this morning in so much achy pain in my pelvis and back!I cant sit still on a single chair for long without my legs getting achy, I can't lie down to rest as heartburn strikes, I haven't had a proper poo for days! (lol sorry)

 

[Clo]

I agree! X

This... totally!

I HATE bedtime. I have all my pillows set up(loads of them), the my OH accidentally touches one and I have to redo them. Every time I turn over in the night I have to redo my bump pillows, then heartburn kicks in so I have to sleep sitting up. Then I'm just getting comfy and it's loo time or my baby kicks the hell out of me. I'm lucky if I get a total of 4-5 hrs a night and OH just snores at the side of me. May try smothering him some time soon, last few days backache! Good god it kills, then baby sits up in my ribs, the other day the only way I could get comfy was to kneel on the floor with my chest on the sofa, not pretty but soooooooo comfy. Xx

 

[CharCharxxx]

I desperately want December to hurry up I can't take much more of this uncomfiness, my baby's head is down as far as can go and legs/feet in my ribs all the time, my rib cage feels battered all the way round including in my back and my bum feels like its gona explode when I sit directly on it.. I was doing fine til about 2 weeks ago now I've friggin had enough!!!!!! X

 

[hippiekinz]

I'm 30 + 1 and this past week has been a NIGHTMARE! I can't sleep anymore... I get in bed and i just can't get comfy at all! Also LO decides nighttime is the best time to kick as well. I can't be normal and when I turn over to switch sides I don't use my back, oh no, I must roll over on my stomach making LO push on my bladder and i pee a lil... Then I have to get up and use the bathroom through out the whole night. Then when I do get some sleep it's only for a few hours and once I need to pee i'm up for an hour before falling back to sleep. I'm just so tired all the time and get snappy. I don't mean it, i just want to be comfy!!!! Is that too much to ask for???

Oh, and DH likes to pull a pillow from my pillow pile around me or pull the blanket and all hell breaks loose! I have to redo everything and it never feels the same as it does before.... December needs to come soon....
