    I don't know if it's the hormones or what, but the past couple days have been miserable and I am tired of being pregnant. As much as I love feeling my boys move, it is getting uncomfortable to have them move so much! Over the past couple days I have developed hemorrhoids, and I have been having a lot of acid reflux. I know I still have 8+ weeks hopefully, but I am ready for the pregnancy part to be over. I am tired ALL the time and if I even go grocery shopping my feet and hands swell up. Sleeping through the night is not an option because I either have to pee, change sides because of my hip and leg aches, or I just can't get comfortable with my body pillow. I love my boys so much, but can't imagine the next 2 months. I took a bath tonight to relieve some stress and aches, but I just wanted to cry.

    I feel blessed and thankful for having a healthy pregnancy so far, but I think I'm just in a funk. :(

    As a mother who delivered 28 week twins, I can tell you that I would have done Anything to continue being miserably pregnant, rather than having to see my girls fight for their life in the NICU for 10 weeks. I am so sorry that you are so uncomfortable, but I promise it will all be worth it when you meet your beautiful baby boys. hug:

    I am sorry you are in so much discomfort. I remember those days and thinking wow this is crazy but 8 weeks or so seems like a long time but it really isn't. I know that is not making you feel better but just now we have btdt and make sure you do something nice for yourself soon to lift your spirits.

    I am going through exactly the same things you are, so I know how you feel. The other day I burst into tears for no reason (to the consternation of DH), I just felt that I had had enough.
    I just keep telling myself that it will all be worth it in the end, even the hemorrhoids!
    Big hug to you. :hug:

    I could have written your post work for word. This has been my hardest pregnancy but I know that the end result is so worth it! Hold on, not that much time to go...I always remember that my good days outweigh my bad days... :hug:

    Hang in there, you can do it. It will all be worth it when it's over, just tell yourself that. I was there...I remember it, I do....it was awhile ago but it did suck and it will all be over soon!

    I know how you feel as well!!

    Time to start making hubby push you in the wheelchair at the store. That's what I make mine do. At first I felt stupid, but now I actually like my hubby carting me around. Atleast I can get out of the house this way.

    The more I stay off my feet... the less aches and pains I have. So I'm a couch potatoe. (My doctor is one of those ones who just puts you on moderate bedrest just because, but it must be helping. I really haven't had any swelling or BH contractions or anything... cervix is still at a 4)

    Atleast we are in the countdown range!
