I felt the same way. When I was not at work I spent the majority of my pregnancy is bed frustrated and uncomfortable. It will be worth it in the end.

It is totally normal to be excited and a little antsy. Just try to keep busy and do things that require you to think about other things. Even if that means getting a crossword puzzle book! lol Do you have the room ready and are you going to register? Those are both things you can do that are baby-related and will keep you busy. Also really concentrate on eating right and exercising - that way you can feel like you are really contributing to your baby's health and being proactive. Other than that just enjoy the pregnancy at this point. I have beenthrough it twice and aafter the first birth I actually missed being pregnant a little. It is like a special little secret inside you that you don't have to share with anyone. I was a little sad to have it over with.

I feel the exact same way (I'm 29 wks)....going crazy!!!! I am so excited, anxious, nervous, happy about my baby boy. My emotions are every where right now. I can't wait for him to get here. I have been really tired and exhausted as well...when the ob did my blood work they told me I was anemic so that explained alot of my fatigue. Maybe you should ask your doctor about it. Is there any way you could not work as much? Just try relax as much as possible and prepare for the birth of your son. Good luck and best wishes!!

I know what your going through I am 35 weeks pregnant and I am ready to lose it..I have been throwing up for 9 months straight.One thing I suggest that helps is doing things to pass the time..I know that summer makes pregnancy horrible but also look at it as there is a lot going on,,At least where I live..There are alot of activities to do..Put yourself into your work..Start the classes..You said this is your first sign up for all the prenatal classes..Keep busy it works..

Me too!!!! I an sooooo anxious (36 weeks). All I think about is when am I going to go into labor. And this is my 2nd, so I know what to expect. The anticipation is driving me nuts!! The best thing to do is try to keep your self busy. Watching movies gives me a good break sometimes. Hang in there, and get plenty of rest, because he will be here before you know it.

lol it is totally normal. I was obsessed and constantly buying things for my first boy. I did not work during my pregnancy so I had ALOT of time on my hands. I made sure I stayed out places, got things to do like scrap books, got a baby book to fill out, washed and de-tagged all baby clothes etc. Made sure room was perfect for his arrival. I went to 41 weeks...just sit back and relax and think how much your life is soon going to change.

HAHA... i'm soooo with you. i'm 25 weeks, and am having a little girl (both my husband and i were really wanting a girl)... but i'm am going CRAZY. i just wrote like a book-long "question" on here about creating an island for all of us to make the time go by faster and better! this is my first, as well, and i'm beyond nervous about being a parent and not just being a wife anymore.... but this is driving me mad. i think pregnancy should only be like 6 months instead of 9. :) but they will be here before we know it... i guess for the sake of the babies, waiting is worth it. even though i'm losing my mind. and my husband can do nothing but laugh at me for it. he's so mean to me (not really, but i'm too sensitive. haha)...

You can never be too prepared for the arrival of your son. Double check your nursery, concentrate on your job, etc. Anything to keep you busy so you have less time to think about it.
Enjoy this time BEFORE the birth of your son. Life as you know it is about to be over forever. Sneak in some naps and some cuddle time with your man. Pretty soon, you won't have time to pay attention to anything or anyone but your son.
Congratulations!!

Hun, it's ok. Just take a deep breath. It will all be over soon before you know it. I am pregnant now with my third son. It seems like it has taken forever to reach 36 weeks, but hang in there!!!! Good luck!
