I’m 38 weeks pregnant. i obviously know i have 2 weeks left. i find myself crying and having panic attacks every night. i have a new pain every day. i call the doctor almost every day with concerns. ive had massive heartburn problems since the beginning of my pregnancy. i have had extreme hip pains and problems since about the middle of my pregnancy. i haven’t really had morning sickness. thank goodness. i feel sick to my stomach almost every day now. ive thrown up two times in the last 3 weeks. ive have leg cramps, they feel like period cramps in my leg, i also get these feelings in my stomach. i have to pee and or poo every 10-20 minutes. no joke. ive been having a headaches every day that are almost impossible to get rid of. ive been checked for preclampyia, dont have it. ive been checked for gestational diabetes, dont have it. the baby and i are “perfectly fine” except a little low iron. i have a crazy lift in my appetite. I’m having more frequent hot flashes. I’m 1cm dilated, 75% effaced, and his head is extremely low. ive tried walking and having sex. I’m on medication for my heartburn and they aren’t working anymore. I’m on a prenatal. I’m on an iron supplement. I’m on anxiety medication. and i take tylenol with codeine which isn’t really working. i have contractions but not that often. and all everyone keeps telling me i just have to wait it out. im so sick of hearing that. i just want my body back. i want to feel normal again. not be sick every day! i dont want to have panic attacks anoymore. i want to be able to sleep at night. im sorry im venting but what pregnant woman doesnt need to. im here for more support and advise that anything. thanks you in advance.

every women gets this way at the end of their pregnancy. i know i did with my three. anyway i drank hot sauce and that broke my water with my last two a couple hours later. sorry for your discomfort but letting you know that you dont have to much further to go is supposed to help. think happy thought lol
First off bless your heart….I have 3 kids and I know what your going thru, It will be over soon. All of your discomforts will go away. You’ll forget over half of them when you have that beautiful baby. The pains in your legs is from the baby dropping into position and pressing on the cervix. Good luck to you and I hope it will not take to much longer.
You are not being selfish wanting your body back. The baby is full term. Try fresh pineapple. With my son the first time I ate it I dilated to a 2 and the second time I was in labor.

You are not alone. I think majority of us feel that way right before we deliver. You will get your body back shortly. I think us going through all of this at the end makes us forget about the delivery portion. MAKE someone pamper you now. Let them feed you chocolates or watch something funny on television to distract you. Good luck to you mommy.
Your pregnancy has actually been remarkably normal and easy compared to many people. I’ve had 3 and have experienced every symptom you’re talking about, with EACH pregnancy. Every woman does get sick to death of the preg by the end, but anxiety attacks? Just relax, we all go through it and you only have two weeks left.
I understand how you feel. My doctors keep telling me that my aches, pains, and discomforts are normal and that we’re “perfectly fine.” I know what you mean when you say you’re sick of hearing that. I want to tell you that your constant need to use the bathroom is your body’s way of cleaning out your bowels so you won’t poop a lot during delivery. If you like bananas, try some of those as a snack for the next few days. That may help with the leg cramps. If you’re taking an iron supplement, it sounds like the leg cramps may have a little to do with your circulation. If bananas don’t work for the cramps, they’ll at least help with going to the bathroom so frequently. If the tylenol isn’t working, stop taking it. It may be contributing to your throwing up. I know how you’re feeling. I’m 36 weeks and experiencing more discomfort than I’ve ever had in my entire life. Hold on Belly Buddy…lol. We’re almost through this.
