33 weeks. Miserable status unlocked

Anonymous
33 weeks and have officially achieved that point in pregnancy where everything sucks.

- My DS has decided having his foot lodged near my chest is comfortable so now it's hard to breathe.
- Waddling
- Can't sleep
- Exhausted but can't sleep
- Heartburn
- Weight gain has been pretty steady. All of a sudden I have ballooned. My face and my legs are so large. And my boobs are still small. Great.

Hang in there OP. You're almost there. My miserable status was unlocked at 30 weeks where all of a sudden I had intense back pain until I delivered.

When I was 35 weeks pregnant I was so winded from just doing walks. I have a dog so we would do two 30 minutes walks a day, and around 32 weeks I was finding myself absolutely exhausted after 20 minutes walking!!!! The last two months are tough, don't push yourself too much.

Ice pack on top of your abdomen. He’ll move, at least a few cm.

Also: have you tried Pepcid? I took it twice a day; worked great but boy did I ever notice if I missed a dose!

Not to be alarmist, but have you had your blood pressure checked? My most outward sign of severe pre-e was sudden weight gain and swelling in my hands, legs, and face.

36 weeks here. Heat broke last night. Packed my 2yo up in a blizzard and drove to my in laws. Just got word it won't be fixed til Thursday. I'm having the baby Wednesday. DH has to stay at our freezing house because the furnace is leaking so I'm staying at my in laws without him. Cholestasis and preeclampsia. Help.

Good luck! I'm 38 weeks and high risk and also have a two year old. My DH is also separated from us because he is sick and waiting for COVID test results.

I wish you all nice 39 week babies! My kids all sadly went to 41+3 ish and I wanted to die those last weeks. Just a miserable blob.

So many find the newborn time easier than pregnancy. Hang in there

I developed PUPPP rash during the end of my pregnancy and it was really painful. It spread to my back, legs, arms, etc.
