This is just the thread I needed...
I can totally relate to everyone here. Honestly, I thought I was the only one having a totally emotional breakdown.
What is up with the peeing? Seriously! For two hours, the time it takes me to fall asleep on a good night, I pee at least 5-6 times. As soon as I lay down I get the urge. IT DOES NOT STOP! Once I get to sleep, I sleep about 45 minutes and then am up to pee again. Repeat once an hour, every hour. Until finally I can't sleep anymore at 5am and get up.
I have a cold right now and that is exacerbating everything. I'm even staying home from work to try and rest more, but I have to go back eventually. I'm hoping once the cold clears up I'll sleep more.
The baby was not engaged as of my last check two weeks ago. Does the peeing get worse with engagement? He/she is definitely low. If this gets worse I might go insane.
I, of course, cried this morning as DH was leaving for work. I just feel so crappy and lonely. I just feel so out of control of my body. He is taking a class that ends on 2/5 and I just miss him. He has to do homework all the time. I was actually hoping to go late so we could spend some more time together before the babe gets here. Now with my symptoms, I'm rethinking that wish.
I NEED TO HAVE THIS BABY! At least I would feel productive while not sleeping.
Back to dreaming about an Ambien and a catheter...
