wow, aturn--scary! I'm glad you're just watery! And congrats on gaining a pound. That's awesome how your dr's office treated you. Must be nice to be fawned over

AS for me...I'm just tired. Tired of my cat trying to pee on me at night, tired of my husband working nights so I only get to see him for 10 minutes in the morning before I go to work and also of being lonely without him, tired of taking my dog out to pee in the rain, tired of being big, tired of being pg, tired of all food, tired of all my maternity clothes, tired of work (I had a total of 10 minutes of work today for all 9 hours I was here

), tired of not sleeping well. Tired of complaining all the time! lol...

sheepie - Your tired of alot of stuff! LOL It's going to get better,just hang in there. It's really ruff time for us right now, we just need to keep it together for little bit longer!

I remember back when I first got pregnant, I had someone tell me that by the time you get to about 25 weeks you get so sick of being pregnant and you just want it to end. I was still on my high from finding out so all I could think was...HOW awful, I will never get tired of being pregnant! Man, I totally get it now. I think I'm just excited for them to get here and tired of all the things sheepie just wrote

aturn-i'm sure you were so scared/excited. but I have to tell you, i get that drip stuff that goes all the way down my leg every morning after I get out of the shower and dry off. freaked me out the first time, but after weeks of it happening, I just wait for it and then re-wash off my leg. gross huh.

i'm in a yucky mood today. don't know why...lets just blame the hormones...the whole world is annoying me right now.

25 weeks?! Hahaha, I think Ive been tired of being pregnant since about week 12. I know that sounds awful, and I don't mean it the way it sounds at ALL. Im in love with this baby already, and I can't wait to be a mom, but pregnancy does not suit me at all. Im constantly uncomfortable..I feel like Ive not even been able to enjoy a meal since the second week of January. Its like..even my taste buds are different. The constant peeing, the tummy pains, etc. I really don't know how you girls carrying two are even doing it! I really admire you. Id be complaining every single day *lol*

I second that Evyn. I feel horrible saying this but I don't like being pregnant at all and it's shocking because I've waited so long for this. I'm only 11 weeks! The first couple of weeks I was on a high and couldn't imagine disliking it but then the sickness kicked in and I can't wait until the baby is here and I'm no longer pregnant. I'm sad that I feel this way but I can't lie! It feels good to admit it though..
I blame it on the hormones.

refrain02 · 04-29-2008, 11:37 PM

(I haven't stopped working since I got home, so much for taking it easy)

Tschreck – Welcome and congrats!

Aturnbg – Wow, that would have been scary! Glad to hear it’s just watery mucus! And does that mean you’re getting close if you’re starting to lose the mucus plug? And yeah, the Fri 13th thing is a little odd… But it’s kind of fun too. Every time a Fri 13th rolls around most of the world goes all doomsday and DH and I go out for a mini-anniversary dinner.

Bobbysgirl – I’m glad your appt went well and you like your OB. It’s definitely nice to have an OB you can connect with and when you’re dealing with hormones, emotion, and stress (during pg, labor, and PP) a good bedside manner is invaluable!

Sheepie – So sorry you’re so tired. I’m not nearly as tired as you yet, but I totally understand where you’re coming from!

Rose – Sorry your sister is having a difficult time with her RE. That must make the whole process even more frustrating.

Refrain – Sorry you’re “working late.”

As for being tired of everything and not enjoying pregnancy, I agree with you all. I was talking to my sister about how yucky it feels to be pg and she said “I loved it! Aside from the heartburn & the trouble sleeping right at the end, my pregnancy was great! I loved my baby bump.” Um, yeah. The baby bump is about the only good part! The m/s, the tiredness, the heartburn, the aches, the baby squishing/kicking/stretching/punching you, the insomnia, the difficulty getting around, etc. It all takes a toll on you. But the funny thing is, you somehow forget all that and just think about the baby bump and how fun it was to anticipate your little one’s arrival. It must me nature’s cruel joke to get us to do it all over again! LOL

Im so glad Im not the only one not enjoying pregnancy...it makes me feel guilty for even having those thoughts. I can't help it though!!!

bobbysgirl2005 · 04-30-2008, 11:03 AM

Aww, Sheepie. Let me give you a hug. . .

Rose28 · 04-30-2008, 11:16 AM

Refrain - I just clicked on your blog and I must say that you have quite the beautiful belly.

Well I just had eggs for the first time in 6 weeks which is SO amazing because it means the nausea is getting better. Eggs were my worst nightmare not too long ago. Maybe I'll actually get some nutrition in my body sometime soon.

refrain02 · 04-30-2008, 11:57 AM

aww thanks for liking my belly. I have been blessed with good skin genes. None of the women in my family get stretch marks, trust me, I know how lucky I am.
What is hard though is I used to have beautiful skin on my face and back. It has all gone to hell. I try not to let it get to me, but its hard when I see people I haven't seen in a while and I can just tell they're looking at my skin thinking "eww you poor thing". My back is full of cystic acne (the real big, real deep painful ones) and no cream or prescription from the doc is helping. Oh well, just more things to hold over the kids heads when they act up

I was having really bad cramps yesterday and its funny how your attitude can change so quickly. All yesterday morning I was thinking..I want you little ones out! and as soon as I had a real bad cramp last night..all I could think was NO NOT YET! Stay in there! You're too small. Cramps went away though. I'm figuring they're just BH. If they pop up again today, I'll call the doc but, trying not to be a worrier...

sheepiegirl · 04-30-2008, 12:19 PM

And I'm mostly tired (from what I can tell) because I don't sleep well because my cat tends to try and pee on me at night, but if I'm up and see him coming I can prevent it. My gross little world

refrain--I know what you mean about the cramps. Same thing happens here. I'm like, I'm sorry, stay in!

So I had my 34 week appt today. All went well. He guesstimated her to be about 4 pounds 6 ounces right now, so that's getting pretty big! She's back to being breech, which is annoying. I actually don't know if she ever wasn't breech. My last appt I didn't have an u/s and he only felt her and said she wasn't breech anymore, but I'm thinking that since all my u/s showed her as breech, maybe he was just wrong. Although she was VERY active this week, so maybe she flipped then. So now I'm supposed to massively up my liquids intake to hopefully give her more room to flip. But, weight and BP for me were good and he was happy I wasn't wearing heels, so all in all a good appt. I now start going weekly!

bobbysgirl2005 · 04-30-2008, 12:38 PM

Refrain: You are very luck about the stretch marks, especially having twins! Sorry to hear about the cystic acne. I've never had that, but I used to break out some whenever I would have hormonal fluctuations. It's such a pain (and embarrasing). I hope it gets better.

bobbysgirl2005 · 04-30-2008, 12:40 PM

Sheepie: Glad to hear your appointment went well. Your little girl apparently didn't get the memo that she is supposed to flip and stay that direction.
