Anyone else not ready?!

Question

I’m 34 weeks, third pregnancy and it’s been tough! I am so tired all the time, everything hurts, some days I can barely move ☹️… I just want to sleep and be in bed all day long. My husband works all the time and I feel like I’ve neglected my other kids 😭😭😭. It’s almost time and I don’t have anything ready yet, I have bought what I believe I need for my baby but haven’t even washed anything, I have yo get the crib ready, clothes washed and organized, make my hospital bag, diaper bag, clean the house and my car real good and I have zero energy, I feel like baby is going to get here in the middle of a mess cause I can’t seem to get anything done, I am so frustrated ☹️😞😞😞😭.

Answer

Okay, take it easy and do things one at a time. 34 weeks as well, we still have 5 weeks and so many days to go. That’s plenty of time. 
Maybe dedicate one day a week over the next few weeks to doing one task. Just one task. You don’t have to do everything at once. Ask for help from your husband where you need it and take it easy. 
I’ve been tired and in pain too the last few weeks but slowing down, taking a sec to do my list of priorities one step at a time made a huuge difference. 
Plus: the baby is not going to be born into this world judging you for not washing every single item of clothing or not having the crib up yet. ❤️

Answer

I’m 36 weeks and completely relate to this. My nursery/former office is a disaster zone and we have ongoing emergency construction on our home that still isn’t finished. I’m often too sore from sciatica and headaches to do much. 
Shit happens. Sometimes babies come early when things aren’t finished anyway and that has to be okay. I would say try to find a way to do what you can and let go of the things you can’t control. Making a reasonable list of priority things to do every once in a while when I’m feeling better has helped. Remember, rest is also part of the preparation :)

Answer

33.3 weeks and I could’ve written this myself… I feel half dead sometimes and completely useless to the point it’s making me depressed. I know baby needs more time to cook but the rest of the family (especially me) is suffering atp.

Answer

I am so glad it's not just me. Our crib is halfway put together, our apartment is a mess and I'm overwhelmed trying to get everything together. Worried he'll get here before I finish because I can't get myself together and up out of bed to do anything. My feet are sore to the touch when I wake up and I have these MASSIVE migraines. I'm excited for my boy to get here but I'm so worried I won't have anything done!
