You are invited to my pity party...  

post #1 of 31
Thread Starter 
I am huge. I am swollen. My pelvic bone is going to rip apart. And I can't sleep...and when I do, I have to turn over constantly and lift up about 14 pounds of baby to do it.


Where are my babies? I want to meet them so bad. I want to labor and have them today! I can't believe it is August and they aren't here yet.


Whine whine whine...sob sob sob....pity party.

I am 40 weeks pregnant in four days.


(I know that it is great to have gotten so far, but honestly, I need to be done now.)

I cannot imagine being in double misery than I am these days.
My heart goes out to you mama!

Maybe today will be the day!
Can't stay pregnant forever (sure seems that way though!)

I will certainly join you!

We are due the same day, and I can't imagine carrrying two in there and feeling the way I've felt. Here's hoping we go soon!

That is long for twins isn't? I was shocked Brad and Ang had them at 34ish but I was told by another twin mama that was more the norm

Can you ask for a sweep?

Sarah, I have been thinking lots about you! I hope you are about to do nothing all day long --- even though that can be just as uncomfortable, but still.

I'll send you labor vibes!!:

Can you schedule a pedicure or time at the pool? Anything to get through one more day?

You are amazing, growing such healthy babes!

Sarah I FEEL for you seriously. I was in so much pain when i delivered my twins at 36 weeks. But good for you for keeping them cooking. Maybe today will be your day.

Hey Sarah-
Been thinking about you everyday and sending labor vibes your way every time I do. PLEASE let us know if you need anything! I am happy to run to the store if there's anything you need there or just come over and take the kids outside so you can rest.
You are amazing!!!

poor thing. I am sitting here a week past due based on one of my edd's and was feeling sorry for myself, but I can NOT imagine having two babies to lug around. Take it easy and I will send some ELV's your way.

Can you go get a massage or pedicure or really whatever makes you feel pampered and nice?

If I had any money at all, I would so get a pedicure. That sounds lovely. My MIL did get me one about a month ago, and that was so nice.

I can go to the pool, but it is hard to be in the water. The babies float up and make it really hard to breath. That is why I wonder if the waterbirth tub will actually work for me this time. I can't sit down in it the same, as my belly hangs down between my legs when I sit. They are so low.

And Angela...YOU JUST HAD A BABY!! You aren't going to do anything but love on her and your family!

My husband rubs my feet every night, which is great. I just wish they would come now.

I'm definitely keeping you in my thoughts; you've been a trooper and it just CAN'T be that much longer, right?

I would scrape pennies for the pedicure.

I'll join everyone else in sending some powerful labor vibes your way

My heart goes out to you. It's amazing that you made it to 40 weeks. That's fab, girl! Shouldn't be much longer now.

Ask a good friend for a massage or pedicure. I bet they would be more than willing to do it.

now get hubby to spoil you and to give you a foot massage..... you are such a great momma cooking up those babes til they are really ready to come up....

OK, I need to stop MY whining now. I can't even imagine having 2 in there right now! Hang in there, mama! Labor vibes to you :
post #19 of 31
Wow, I can't believe you've gotten this far with twins (broken record, I know). I will stop my own whining now (well, maybe just dial it back a little ).
It just can't be much longer for you now :

Hugs to you, mama! I'll send you lots of comfort vibes and hope you can have them soon!
