confused and very tired!!!!

Hi, I'm sure posts like this have been put up loads of times but I really don't know what to do! I'm 35 weeks and for the last 2 days I have been experiencing really odd stomach pains, not braxton hicks i've had them and it isn't the same, i can't sleep for more than about 40mins in the night without waking up and when i wake up i am so hot i'm practically sweating :( i'm walking around like a zombie, i don't think i'm in labor but i just feel so exhausted with it all my due date is 16th april but i really don't feel like i will make it that far, his head has gone down which makes everything so much more difficult i feel like i'm going to keel over!! i'm annoyed and i don't want to be because it isn't the babies fault i just want him out even though i know it's early, i just don't know how much longer i can take :( Am i the only person who feels like this?? x

Thanks girl, although i'm not feeling much better it is nice to know i'm not alone!! But it gets worse my blood pressure has gone down along with swelling and the protien has gone too :) but i am now suffering from the worst migranes i've ever had and they are coming every night :( went to the hospital today and they said that there isn't anything i can do and i've got to just get on with it :( but i can't i'm really upset about it all i've suffered from migranes since i was little and finally got some relief from them when i became pregnant, this truely is my worst nightmare i'd rather be sick 10 times a day than this and none of the Midwifes seem to care and they can't give me a valid reason for it happening they said it's not to do with the baby it's just me...but i don't know how much more i can take all this pain and waiting plus never ending migranes!!! only one week to go till i'm 37 weeks which is making me a bit happier but it will be sods law that he will be overdue!! i hate moaning because i've been so lucky, i have a great partner and everyone is helping me i think the sooner he is here the better so i can go back to happy me :) hope your all having a better time!!! xxx

hi, no your not the only one who feels like that, im 34 weeks and so fed up im uncomfortable 24 7 cant get comfy sitting, standing, lying down i want baby out now, i know it sounds awfull but i have absolutly hated this pregnancy and am looking forward to the actual labour, i would rather do labour 10 times over than be pregnant for another 9 months, and that is saying something!! have you asked the midwife about the pains?? i dont even ask my midwife things any more she just seems way to busy to talk to me.
my friend is due same time as me but due to her having problems with her spine she is having a c section 8 days early, i actually feal rather envious as i have a feeling i am going to be overdue i was 14 days with my first. dont know if i can take anymore waiting x

Hiya, I felt EXACTLY the same at 35 weeks - I started having really strong braxton hicks one night and thought I was going into labour. I was so fed up, had 3 weeks left and work and wanted it all to be over! I got it through it though and I'm now due this Monday. I think there must be a big change at around 35 weeks cos I'm still fed up lol but not as much as at 35 weeks! I think you must just get used to the pains, the uncomfortableness etc. I now feel like bubs is going to drop out he's so low so I walk like a cowboy, I've stopped drinking anything after 7pm as I am SICK of weeing 10 times a night. I'm having all sorts of little signs but no labour so I was getting v frustrated earlier in the week, but I've decided to stop stressing and just let him come when he comes.

The last month or so have been v tough but I am so close to having LO in my arms...and you will be too...hang in there!! :) xx

No hun ur not :)
Im gonna be 34 wks on Monday and Ive been getting period like pains which hurts more if I lie down. Some1 suggested it was Braxton Hicks but my belly doesnt go hard at same time so Im not sure. I think its bubs burrowing down lol.
I wake up every few hrs and need a pee and Im constantly boiling. Dont get me started on the heartburn and backache lol. I always ask my BF to open the bedroom window and then he complains he is freezing during the night lol.
My due date is the 27th April and my MW seems to think I will go b4 this. (I hope so!)
Wont be much longer hun till we r both holding our babies. x
