STRUGGLING!!!

Im 34 weeks and really struggling with the pain of this pregnancy, it is my 3rd and by far my worst eperience. I have had to take it wasy since week 6 no gym (i use to go daily so that in itself is a struggle as its what i did for me) My whole pelvis feels so stiff it hurts to turn over in bed and takes quite sometime! For the last 2 weeks i havent got anhmore then 5 hours broken sleep a night generally waking to aching hips and the obvious needing to pee, ive tried panadol but i find having a hot shower works best for an hour or so. Baby is also breech feet down and my whole tummy just constantly aches.. i really cant handle this pregnancy for much longer i feel like crying all the time, i am so in love with my little one already but i am hating this experience which only makes me feel guilty as i lost 4 pregnancies and really wanted to enjoy being pregnant and make it an enjoyable experience for my partner

Don't feel bad. This is my 3rd pregnancy as well and I wanted to enjoy it but like you said this pregnancy had been the worst one. My 1st two seemed so easy compared to this one. I feel like these last few weeks are going by so slow. I told my husband that this was the 1st time I really felt pregnant lol but nights are the worst for me. For example it's 5:29am here and I've been up because I can't sleep.

I strongly recommend seeing a reflexologist, I wouldn't have survived this pregnancy without it. I am now 40+5 and feel great which is a far cry from how this pregnancy started, my hips were hurting so bad I couldn't walk anymore and now I don't feel my hip!

dont feel guilty it's quite natural our bodies have been turned upside down lol i was begin in to think I was infertile as it took me 15 months to conceive and this is my first pregnancy so when I finally got pregnant if isn't believe it I was convinced I wasn't able o have kids but I stipend trying and that's when it happened so even though I am very grateful for being able to carry a baby I still get days were I feel horrible and the heat doesn't help so it's totally normal for us to feel like we're done after all
