I am 38 weeks tomorrow and lately I am beyond exhausted all day, every day.
Waking up in the morning I am tired and have zilch all energy to much at all during the day . . .

Im totally fed up! I need my body back badly and to top it off my Son has reached the terrible two's and has had me in tears today. I'm feeling a little sorry for myself! Not long for us now though!! x

Im 38 weeks and feeling very tired and worn out. This is my 2nd week of maternity leave and first week with my son since he finished school for the summer. Feeling quite bad as i cant take him out far as it hurts to walk so hes having to make do with playing in the garden and doing some art n craft things!

Ive just started taking iron tablets so im hoping this will help with the tiredness.

My first was born at 36 weeks so being 38 weeks preggers is new to me. Have a feeling this little man will be late! I just want to meet him now. Ive been havin period type cramps since last Thurs but nothing else yet! Good luck to you all, ill b looking our for your 'IM IN LABOUR' threads lol xxx

Hi ladies! I feel great as far as energy level and mood, but I have sooooo much pain (abdominal)! I have had it for months but it just gets worse and worse (The doc says it's normal but not all women get it, not very comforting, lol).

I had my 1st internal exam today and have a closed cervix and no engagement, bummer. But the doc says that I could still go into labor any day so not to put much weight on that, maybe she was just trying to make me feel better bless her heart. I would start walking more but I move like a turtle with the pain!

I'm 38 + 3 and am feeling a bit blah! I wish we got checked to see if we're engaged over here in UK at 38! I think my baby is very comfortable and has no intention of budging yet! It takes me a long while to get moving in the mornings and i'm still getting breathless. And i'm constipated, and have swollen legs and loads of cellulite! Other than that......!

Oh yea I started with the swelling last week too, it sucks!! I went to get a pedicure and couldn't get my sandals on afterward, how embarrassing:-/ I have been getting more intense and uncomfy BH, backache, and menstrual cramps the whole past week so I am hoping this still means progress?

This sounds like me .. I make a cuppa take a 20 min break, hang out the clothes 20 min break, get up to use the loo take a 20 min break

I am 38 weeks today. Have a lot of back pain and it is keeping me awake at night. I try to nap during the day but have to pee so often that I don't really get to sleep. Other than that I don't feel that bad. I just wish that I could go outside and exercise a little but it has been 100 + degrees F for the last month so it is too hot to leave the house. Luckily I am 3 cm dilated and 80% effaced so the doc thinks she will be here soon. Who knows though...

 

[MissFish]

I feel about 40 weeks pregnant & 80 years old.

I (somehow) worked 9 hrs today on my feet with only a 30 minute break.

I can't sleep even when exhausted.

Tired of hearing myself complain!! Can't believe I still have 2 possibly 3 weeks if I go over due.

Waaaaaaahhhhhh

On a lighter note, tips are fab. I think my clients are feeling bad for me LOL
