I’m 30w1d and I literally don’t know how I’m going make it through the next 9 weeks. I am uncomfortable (to varying degrees) basically unless I’m sleeping, and even that is interrupted by having to wake up to either struggle to turn over (because I’m uncomfortable in the position I’m in) or struggle to get out of bed to go to the bathroom (because I’m uncomfortable feeling like my bladder is about to burst) or! I’m waking up in the middle of the night to choke through a bout of reflux because I *gasp* ate dinner 5 hours before laying down!
Sitting at my desk to work hurts, getting up and walking around the house/office hurts, getting in and out of the car hurts, I’m too short to move my seat any further back so steering wheel is pressing up against my belly which is both physically uncomfortable and stresses me out because I know ANY impact is going straight to baby, god forbid, but I drive so much for work.
All that to say, it’s wearing on me. Not all days are super bad, but some are, and on those bad days, my baseline is already so worn out from the less bad but still not great days that I’m a tad bit bitchy and god do I feel like crying. I don’t want to talk to anyone, I don’t want to eat, don’t want to cook, I just want to lay down with my head in my moms lap with her petting my hair, but who am I kidding… that would be uncomfortable too 😭
Rant over. I just needed it to go out to where there are people who understand, even if no one says a word back. My boyfriend can’t possibly understand and it’s been too long since my mom was pregnant. 🤣
