Venting. Sorry.
I totally and completely understand! I have had thoughts of writing that very same rant. I respect that I should feel so happy to be pregnant because so many have trouble but I also feel so tired of it now. I want my body back so I can breathe, sleep on my tummy, and walk 5 ft without feeling like I am going to die!
I do not have any other children so I guess I should feel lucky about that. You have full right for feeling the need to vent!
Let's both just keep chanting "It's almost over! It's almost over!"

I think one of my favorite parts was when the OB warned me that I would be expanding from hip to hip with this baby and that I might want to think about packing away my "regular" jeans for a few years. Bye, Bye size 8. lol. At least she wasn't doing a pelvic when she said that. I wanted to kick her in the head.
I often feel the same way as you....I am almost 29 wks, I don't work outside the home though but I am still worn out...my hubby is currently in school and working 3rd shift and we have two daughters that I am pretty much being a single mom to throughout the week....I have told my hubby that I don't want to be preggers anymore, I just want my baby boy already..don't feel bad for venting, we all need to every now and then and your feelings are 100% legitimate! I hope you feel better and somehow get some rest :) (((HUGS)))
Oh. girl. I feel you. My husband travles M-Th every week, so even if you don't work outside the home, you have a serious JOB. I think that going back to teaching after a year was actually easier than staying at home full time and doing all of that myself. I'm so excited you're getting your boy ... the SECOND we found out this baby would be our second girl, DH asked if we could try again for a boy. I said, s"Sure, let me know how it works out. I'll be over here making tutus and taking BC pills." Ha!
Aw, so sweet of you to think of me! Thanks! I'm around, there's just been a lot of drama lately, so I try not to chime in unless I have something worthwhile to say (which is rare .. haha). You know, I am probably making it sound worse than it is. I'm just really tired and sore today. Thanks for checking in, though. I really apprecaite it!
Vent away! Normally I try and stay away from too much whining (but I also am having the world's easiest pregnancy so far I swear, I know I'm very lucky) because I have many still TTC friends. However, it sounds like all the symptoms are dogpiling on you - you have every right to ***** I would too!
Can you get the kids involved, maybe some of the better behaved, better grades, most improved, I don't know, to help you with writing on the board and other things that tire you out? Make it an award maybe?

I DID Make It - 135.4 8-1-10! Now working on post baby weight loss. (All WL post-op - preop got up to 220 from quitting smoking & last supper syndrome.) 5'2"
Totally. My students are AWESOME and i love them madly which is why I want to stay here and continue working, so I can help them be the most prepared they can be for high school next year ... they help me with SO much!
You really are blessed with an easy baby! :-) My first pregnancy - I swear, there were hummingbirds and butterflies round my head the entire time, and it felt like there were fairies sprinkling dust on me, it was so easy. I LOVED it. BUT, I didn't have a 20 month old running around at that time, either! Ha! I'm so happy you're having an easy time! :-)
