***January Jellybeans***~ 35 BABY GIRLS & 23 BABY BOYS BORN ~***

I do feel for you Regina. I too feel as though I hate being pregnant at times and think it is very normal at this stage of pregnancy to just want your body back and to feel normal again.

You haven't got long now though and of course when you have your baby you will know that all of those aches and pains are sooo worth it.

:hugs:
 
Regina, am so with you. Was talkng to my ex's wife in the supermarket the other day - their LO is a couple of weeks old now (prob bout a month) and she was saying she hated it and I was agreeing that it's not all the roses people say it is - so that's another two of us. She was actually a smoker (man what a smoker) until she found out she was pregnant and used to go and watch football (er..soccer?) with her OH all the time and have a couple of drinks and so couldn't do either of her favourite things all the way thru - think she nearly went nuts.
As for me.... the second I get to 37 weeks I'm gonna hire a blooming trampoline - most of the time I can barely sit down coz I got a head on my bladder and a backside under my ribs - lying half prone on the sofa is my preferred position. And OH keeps laughing as I roll around trying to put on socks, it's become his favourite pastime, he comes from wherever he is in the house to watch (thankfully, I'm ok with that because it usually means he'll help me eventually). I think we're all feeling a bit fed up with the whole thing now. Plus you were so slender before it's gotta be a big difference in your body. I was always on the larger side but I still keep forgetting and getting tapped in toilet stall doors.

Oh, there was something I wanted to ask.... er...gone.

Wait, it's back. How many people have started their RLT?
 
:hug: Regina, not long to go.

We put our Christmas tree up this morning. I would have usually put it up on the first weekend of December but my hubby is going away for work next weekend so we did it today. Seeing all the decorations up has just made me realise how close it is to the end of the year and how soon baby is going to be here!!!!
 
Hey girls. Big :hugs: Regina, I know exactly how you feel and have felt for a while. It's horrbiel coz you feel soooo guilty for feeling crappy, especially when you hear people claiming how much they loved being pregnant!!!! :grr: why oh why do they think thats helping?????? I suppose the consolation is that there's not long left now, although I too feel like a baby-making machine and nothing else! I second Littlemrs with the sock thing, its ridiculous how I cant put on pants, socks or shoes without major huffing and puffing and I've started to get OH to help out now, which just feels humiliating! C'mon baby get out of there!!!! :flower:

Grr at OH Mom 2B and yey to Fraggles that pains have stopped!

Am up at 7am this morning, although no doubt will be knackered in a few hours and end up back in bed! :dohh: Finished putting up our xmas decs yday and although all I did was either sit on a chair and hold whilst hubby put things up, or stand up and hold something, I was out of breath!! What the....???? Anyway :hug: to you all!
 
Hi Ladies, sorry your feeling so rubbish Regina. To be honest I think most women experience what you are feeling at some point in their pregnancies. I have had many a moment when I have felt crap and not wanted to be pregnant anymore. Being pregnant is a massive thing and it takes so much out of you and your body. :hugs:

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Still had no snow (other than a very slight dusting over night Friday, looked like someone had got a sieve and some flour :()
Went to a massive indoor soft play centre this afternoon with OH and Phoebe. She loved it, was throwing herself everywhere, head first down the slides and crawling across rope bridges and cargo nets :s this child has no sense of danger or fear what so ever. Half expected a knackered child when we got back as both me and OH are half asleep. Shes had 10 mins sleep since getting up this morning and that was in the car on the way to soft play :s

Hope everyone has a lovely evening :) :hugs: to everyone who needs one.
 
People who say they loved every second of being pregnant must have had that dose of forgetting hormones. Or they're just lying. This is the moment you all tell me how much you love being pregnant.
 
I must admit after my last labour I forgot everything at first as holding my baby was just so amazing and beyond any emotion I could of ever imagined.
 
I swing between loving it and being amazed at my own little personal miracle and then hating how much I hurt lol and can't wait to be able to have my body back lol!!

Bought a lovely christmas party dress today from mamas and papas. I'll post the link on the end of this message. Best thing was they had 30% off maternity wear this weekend and then I had a £20 voucher too! Woooop cheap times xxxx

hi everyone..I nearly forgot about this thread...wow..how did it get here..okay must stay updated now that Ive found it!!!
 
yay fraggles! Now I see your ticker!

Leanne, I can't see the dress, as i'm in the US and it directs me just to the Mama's and Papa's website home.

Thanks for all the support. I feel a little better. I went to sleep again around 930 this morning after OH went to work and got about 2 hours more sleep- although Madison's kicks are getting so strong that one woke me up! That's a first for me! Usually they'll prevent me going back to sleep, but to actually wake me up from sleep?!?!? Goodness!
 
hi everyone..I nearly forgot about this thread...wow..how did it get here..okay must stay updated now that Ive found it!!!

Um, yeah! like the fact that you were given a date to have your stitch out?!?!? ( Read it on the announcements thread) Congratulations! You might be the next of the Jellybeans to go!
 
been debating whether or not to post this one... took it on Friday in a burst of confidence. I was noticing how awesome people's bumps looked when they took their bump pics in their lingerie, so here's mine. let's get all the :haha: out of the way. lol

Wowzers Regina! Wish I looked that bloody good! I'll have to give the underwear thing a whirl, although may have to do some forestry work first :blush:
