Hibernation

102 days left. I'm 6 months, 1 week and 3days. As soon as I hit the 6 month period alllll I want to do is sleep! I went shopping yesturday and couldn't last. Ended up getting super hot all of a sudden and then I'm running to the bathroom. Thought I was over the nausea stage? I work 40+ hrs a week and I'm scared I won't make it. I cry on my way to work and then on my way home just cause I'm so tired. I've never been such a whimp. Makes me mad at the same time. How did some of you woman make it to a week before having your baby working? What's the secret? PLEASE TELL ME

Wow, ok some of you ladies have more of a load than me. So it is possible but not only that but you feel the same so I'm not alone. Thank you!  And me too, I've never really cared for sweet but now when I go out I make sure I only eat a portion of my meal so I can eat all my desert. Waiter/waitress will always bring 2 spoons for me and my man but it's only for me. Lol never been like this in my life!!!!!!

I plan on working until I go into labor... I'm not returning after I have him, so I need to train the new person, etc. I'm always told how "big" I am, too. So I hear you there. It's super frustrating with everyone commenting on things... especially family. Do what you need to do, and don't worry about anyone else. You are the one carrying the baby, and you are an expert on your body and what it can handle.

Thanks ladies. When do you plan on going on leave hailysma2000? I always had in mind a week or 2 before she's due but noooow I'm making it a goal to last till mid December. Lol "GOAL" it's annoying cause my family members say how big I've gotten and that "I won't last" and then my mans family says I work too much and need to quit. Hello..... I'm the only 1 with a job and the house "I" bought is in my name! Not that simple.

I am exactly the same day as you... 102 days to go. I'm miserable. I work just as much, come home and die. But, I have a 13 year old daughter to tend to as well. I wish I could tell you it will get easier.... but it will get worse before it gets better. Stay STRONG, mamma!!

I think your a strong women still working.  I was so sick cause I have HG that I stopped working and your still working. Your not a whimp I would be a whimp I quit my job me and my fiancĂ© moved to my sister cause it's free rent until I have the baby and we're still struggling cause no money coming in from my side.  So keep the chin high and your doing a awesome job.
