is anyone enjoying the end of pregnancy? - Page 2

I too go back and forth because this pregnancy physically has been better on me than my DS.

This baby has been more brutal to me inside than my DS as well so I'm not enjoying the movements much.

I was scared of having my DS and wanted him to stay inside me forever .

I don't feel that way with my DD as I will be happy once she is born so I can have my body back to myself.

I was pretty good until I scraped up my knees the other day, and now I feel incapacitated. Once those heal maybe I'll be okay again.

And I keep feeling like it's right there... all fuzzy and birthy and ready to go. Then, nothing. Just random contractions. Birth is imminent, but imminent could be 1-2 weeks. That's still imminent relative to pregnancy. But dangit, I don't want to go to work tomorrow. I want to stay home with a new baby. (and not stay home with a toddler and a pregnant belly -- thanks, i'd rather work.)

I love being pregnant but this fifth pregnancy is kicking my butt! I'm in almost constant pain - so I'm definitely NOT enjoying it.

I'm thankful for it and praising God for this baby but not enjoying it.

My sentiments EXACTLY!!! I'm sending you labor vibes.

Okay, When I posted last I was enjoying it. Today though, I am an an emotional no mans land! I am crying, angry, and I hurt physically. I am tired of DH and his schooling, so ready for it to be over. We have slowly over the last week gotten a TON done around the house, but there is still a lot. The pile of clutter to move to storage is driving me nuts. It is all too heavy for me and DH barely has time to use the bathroom, let alone schlep it all down there. DS has been very trying too! I need my positive mental attitude back, where did it go!!?

I am trying to savor the last few days/weeks. I love being pregnant, despite the sometimes uncomfortableness of it. This will most likely be our last too so I am already sad about that. I love my big ol' belly. I love all of the stuff I've gotten done in the past two weeks! I love feeling the baby move in there, all nice and safely contained. I am finally emotionally ready to have the baby, but I am also really wanting this pregnancy to continue.

I'm enjoying it also. The beginning is always the roughest for me since I get soooo sick. Once that ends though, I LOVE it. I'm really going to miss being pregnant, it actually makes me pretty sad, esp. since this is probably our last.

The funny thing is, I'm almost 37 weeks and I think I'm still in shock or something. LOL. It still seems a bit unreal. You'd think by now it would've completely sunk it, right?

I'm in such a weird frame of mind - I feel like my life is on hold and I feel like I'm constantly narrating my life - trying to capture every moment in my memory like I might need to remember it for a birth story or something. I want to feel normal again...
