I am going freaking crazy here. So so so pregnant and uncomfortable. Can't sleep because my body is in pain and I also have to go to the bathroom constantly. Been having Braxton Hicks contractions, but they are far apart and I am not going into labor. No bloody show or anything like that. How do I keep from going completely bonkers here?

I was just thinking about you about one hour ago, wondering how you were doing.
I'm sorry that you're so uncomfortable. You'll be giving birth soon now. I believe this discomfort is natures way of helping women to work hard at birthing because they really just want it to be over with...sick and tired of being pregnant.
Y'all are in my thoughts. Sending you good vibes for the upcoming birth.
Hugs

thank you so much. and if you don't hear from me for awhile it will mean that i am in labor. this pregnancy thing has not been easy. I don't understand how women can have multiple children.

A doctor once told me that the first one is generally the most difficult. Your body "learns" from the experience of pregnancy and labour and usually adjusts better when it happens again.
Sorry you're not feeling well, Anon. Hope you're feeling better soon. All the best for the birth. It won't be long now if you're having Braxton-Hicks.

Hey sweety!
Oh poor you, the last time is really a strain on the body and mind, be strong woman you are almost there.
I also thought about you, yesterday I think it was, remembering how I felt the last weeks!
I wish you all the best, remember the pain is there for your body to get prepared.
Ill be sending you soothing thoughts and wish you a good birth, remember the reward is waaaay beyond worth it!!!!!
(oh, and the lack of sleep? Get used to it;);) )
Love

my braxton hicks contractions are getting closer and closer together. I would predict tomorrow....... but let's see. When you see that I have not logged on in quite a while then you will know. Thanks for the warm wishes.

Definatley one of the reasons that women have multiple children is that as soon as they see their newborn baby they forgot allllll about the pain and uncomfortable-ness of being pregnant, especially since they grow up sooooooo fast!!!
This sleep deprivation is just preparing you for what's ahead!! Even when your little one is sleeping well, doesn't mean you will. I developed quite the mommy ear and haven't slept hard like I used to ever since.
& Mommyhood is the BEST, hardest, yet MOST rewarding job ever!!!!!
((BIG HUGS)) to you & here's to a wonderful birthing expierance! :D

Oh, & I'll just say towards the end I could only sleep on my LEFT side. It took alot of the pressure off of my bladder.

I LOVE YOU!
I am also thinking about you!! And you may have given birth by now! But if not, just try to rest alot, put your hand on your stomack and talk to your baby, you are both going through this now! Tell the baby that all will be fine and that you are looking so much forward to meet!! That way you comfort yourself too! You are a team with your baby right now!! All will be well!!:)
THANK YOU!
