Physically Drained...

Is it just me or any other mommies going through the same thing as I am. I'm 38 weeks 2 days last week I dilated 2cm 50% effaced. As the days are going by I feel drained, feeling very tired, my whole body just hurts, just feel blah.

Yes! I get that crazy urge to go pee. Often very often. I know baby is in position, tho he likes to kick my right rib. It's so painful. My husband has been kickboxing for years as a hobby and he gets super excited when he starts kicking. I on the other hand have to ride out his strong little kicks but on my ribs it burns!

@itsaboy2014 I'm almost 41 weeks and I get that same heavy sensation where it feels like I'm going to pee or my water is going to break especially when I have to use the bathroom at night

I know the feeling. My dr told me my pelvic bone is really relaxed & since my baby dropped I can barely walk I wattle & I have such a hard time sleeping at night. I really hope the end is near. I'm also losing my appetite. I don't know if that's normal.

I'm so drained. I  feel so bored just hanging around but I have no energy to do anything. My back has also been hurting a lot making me so uncomfortable and too tired to move. It's really not enjoyable at all. I'm hoping that this means the end is near. I've also noticed my joints like my wrists, knees and fingers hurting a lot the last couple of days too.

I'm right there with you, for some reason I kept thinking I was 37 weeks, I'm 38 weeks and 2 days and I feel just like you. So exhausted. We're almost there tho. My energy levels are so low, simple tasks make me just want to take a nap. Lol and then I can't sleep at all at night. That's when baby is most active. Do you have your bags ready?

No ma'am I don't. I need to get those ready ASAP. & yes I don't know if your going through the same thing but for some odd reason when I feel my baby move like pushing down I feel a sensation as if my water is going to break. Do you feel anything like that. As if your gonna pee on yourself. ( TMI )

Yes I agree, my co workers told me the same thing today when I was literally falling asleep at my desk. I've been having plenty of Braxton Hicks off & on since 2 weeks ago. I think my baby boy will be here very soon. My due date is June 14.

I'm not there yet, but I heard from two of my co workers that's how they began to feel when their water broke/went into labor.

Maybe your baby is getting to that point too and maybe anyway now!

Good luck mama, and take it easy !
