How to get through last two months??!!?!!

Question

Hey everyone. So I’m 31 weeks and I feel ginormous! I’m a first time mom. I love being pregnant most of the time. But this last week has been bad. I’m exhausted and out of breath all the time. It’s so hard to get dressed and pick things up. How am I going to make it 8-9 more weeks? Please give me all of your tips or at least whine with me lol. 
Side note-I am so excited and ready to give birth. To feel my baby come out. We are planning a natural home birth and while many may feel apprehensive about labor, I’m looking forward to it. I’m practicing hypnobirthing, doing birthing classes, meditating, squatting, walking, etc to prepare my body for labor and I just think it’s so beautiful what we are designed to do. 
But I need it to be here sooner... lol

Answer

32 weeks here and I feel you big time. Im so tired for no good reason!! (I mean, except that my body is carrying around a HUMAN inside.) Every weekend I have all these plans of what kinds of errands I’ll get done, and I get like maybe 1 out of 8 things done LOL. I’ve been trying prenatal yoga classes but after 3 sessions I stopped going bc I just could not stop yawning at my last class! I just wanted to lie down on the yoga mat and take a big fat nap! And I used to go to the gym consistently before and during pregnancy to lift weights... now I gave up... I ain’t goin nowhere lol I can barely one house chore a week! 😩

All I can do is whine with you lol. There's nothing that makes it easier. The breathlessness and the tired and the constant feeling of stretch lack of sleep. Kicky baby. Urgh....my first pregnancy was the same. I know with me it's the curse of the short torso. I have a teeny tiny torso. Long ass legs itty bitty upper body there's no damn room. 31 weeks and I just wanna....

Answer

Unfortunately you just gotta tough it out these last few months! Rest as much as possible, maybe look into a birthing ball or pregnancy pillow if your hips are hurting. A support belt helps a lot if you are up and moving around a bunch. Every once in a while I take a benadryl to help me get a decent nights rest, so as long as your dr okays it you could try that if you have trouble sleeping. Maybe try some new board games? 😂 it's still really cold where I live, so all of my ideas are basically just stay in and relax as much as you can

Answer

Ugh I so feel this! My hips have been terrible all along but it's 10x worse now, I'm on pills for heartburn and low iron, my belly feels fine when I'm up and around but as soon as I lay down I feel like all of my organs are being squished and seperated.
