Running out of patience!

I'm seriously losing the will power to be pregnant anymore, I am 38 weeks and 1 day with my second, and I've just had enough! My mood has taken a turn for the worst and literally the past week I have woken up in a bad way. I'm sick of all the aches and pains that strike me down, especially when I work up the energy to go out and do something. Every little thing bothers me, and I just feel like I'm trapped in a bubble. I am desperate for my little girl to be out, even though I know really she still has plenty of time before she really needs to come out. Anyone have any tips on how I can make myself feel better? :-( I want to try and relax but all I feel is tense and frustrated - not good for me, baby, my son or my partner :-(

Hang in there... your not even around the corner, more like right next door to your destination. Most of us would kill to be that close to delivery. Try and relax and enjoy these last moments... if all else fails drink a tablespoon of Castro oil.. it'll send you right into labor (OMG.. did I just suggest that.LOL)

Lol thanks for the response. Just wish I got the burst of energy rather than 80 year old lady feeling haha.

Squats and jumping jacks will make her come out sooner.(: good luck! Just remember once she's out these will be the days you'll miss most.

Congrats on getting to 39 weeks! :-) I hope that swift walk works for you, I done lots of walking around this time with my first and he arrive swiftly after! Just feel this pregnancy has taken it's toll on me more.

Try to relax and take a warm bubble bath. You can also try a heating pad on the low setting on some of your aches. The bath always calls me down even in my most frustrated moments. Congrats on being so close to delivery! I can't wait til I get to hold my baby boy.
