Insane energy!!! Anyone else?

[Carlito's_wife]

I am so amazed right now. I just can't slow down. Even though I am not sleeping well I am waking up very early and going everywhere I can think of buying things or staying home cleaning with a toothbrush.

I don't think I even had this much energy before I got pregnant.

I have totally lost my appetite and I can't stop drinking water. Yesterday it was almost 5pm before I realized I hadn't eaten anything. I had to force a PB&J down.

Is this normal towards the end of pregnancy?

I have bi polar and this is really reminding me of a mania phase. Kind of worries me because of course I am not on the meds for it right now due to pregnancy but then I think I do remember something about a burst of energy in the last trimester.

Well either way I will count my blessings because right now I am ready for this baby to the 5th power.

I would certainly be aware of the bi-polar and use the reminder to try and balance yourself out. A nesting urge/energy surge is normal but the shopping and not eating aspects worry me a little. Decreased appetite is normal, but not eating is not. Make sure you are paying close attention and feeding that little baby! I'm glad you are drinking a lot of water! I guess part of it could be pregnancy related but it sounds extreme so that may be attributable to the bi-polar. Just keep it in mind and try to take good care of yourself (food, drink, rest) in these last couple days or weeks.

If you can, send a little of those energy vibes my way, okay?:yawning:

I felt that way 2 days before I went into labor with ds. I'm betting you'll go into labor soon!

Sounds like your ready to have a baby mama!

I was that way a day or two before ds was born. Exy got really angry with me for waking up in the middle of the night to clean, but our little apartment needed it.

It's nature's way; go with it and don't worry but so much.

I'm getting so excited for you! I never had a DDC before or even internet when I was pregnant with the big 'uns.
