Suddenly feel crowded!

Up until literally the last day or so, I've felt pretty comfortable, all in all. As of a few days ago, I could still paint my own toenails. Now I suddenly feel HUGE, BLOATED and CROWDED and I can't get to my toenails unless I give up on the idea of breathing at the same time.

My clothes are annoying me, I just want to wear a muumuu all the time, and I feel like there's no room in my abdomen for food now.

At my 32 week appointment monday my OB commented when he measured me that I'm "measuring ahead of schedule" as well, so who knows what that means for me going forward. We won't get a current weight estimate on the baby until the 36 week ultrasound.

Oye I feel that way and I'm not even 30 weeks yet. Hang in there you're almost there!

I started feeling that way at about 34 weeks. Of course, that was when Hurricane Gustav hit and we were without power or AC for about 3 days. That was a miserable time, to say the least.

I feel your pain!  I have been measuring ahead of schedule too.  So far painting my toes haven't given me much of a problem since I sit on the bed and kind of cross my legs, not pretty but who cares.  It is shaving that is my major problem now.  Even my husband has been making little comments about how big my belly is, not in a mean way, just in a suprised way. 
Not much longer, and I can't wait!!

Hope this time goes quick for you and that baby is not huge. I know my last son 10 years ago was 5 weeks early and weighed 7 3. I was scared cause they said had he went full term he would have been over 10 pounds. Hope they can give you great news at your next ultrasound.

Sorry you are so uncomfy but I feel your pain. I am about a week behind you but my OB said I am measuring 3 weeks ahead. In the last week or so I have gotten to the point where I can't even stand for more than 2 mins without feeling lightheaded and dizzy like I am going to pass out. I am uncomfortable in everything I wear except my nightgowns. The worst part is knowing it's only going to get worse and worse from here. Wish I could give you some advice, but I am right there with you! Good luck!

I hope you (and all the other ladies going through the same thing) get through the rest quickly and easily!
