I have hit the wall!!!!

So, I will be 34 weeks on Monday and my induction is in 30 days. You would think by now I would be on cloud nine. But, like this entire pregnancy (or should I call it hell on earth) I get a few ok days (those are days that I don't vomit and my nausea is at a level 4) and then I get more than a few days of feeling REALLY bad! Today is one of those days. I have been feeling extra nauseas for about a week now but, I have worked really hard to put on a happy face and move forward. Today, i realized I was out of maxipads (which are a necessity because when I vomit, sneeze, gag, etc. I pee myself) I know tmi! Anyway, my honey isn't home so, off to the store I went. Pulled up, got out of car and proceeded to vomit in the parking lot in front of a mom and her small kids!!! By 20 weeks will all three of my other pregnancies, I was feeling so much better. Why the heck am I still fighting the nausea and vomiting at almost 34 weeks! Sometimes, I just want to throw in the towel. Even though I know that is not possible at this point. So, here I lie in bed crying and wishing the end was closer. I know u girls understand but, sometimes I just feel so weak...

Sorry Erin, I wish I didn't understand, but unfortunately, I could have written your post myself. Grocery stores are especially evil for me, and I had a terrible experience yesterday that ruined me for hours until I finally fell asleep. These last few weeks are really really hard physically, mentally, and emotionally when you're still sick. I'm right there with you; totally and completely done and worn out. I wish I had more positive encouragement to offer, but at least you can rest assured that we do understand how much it just sucks! Hugs hugs hugs. You will make it there very soon, and when you do, I'll do a happy dance for you! So close now....

oh, i hear you. i am SO over all of this today and i don't feel like i can do it at all even though i have been for so many months... I couldn't imagine how hard this would be for you if your previous pregnancies let up on the HG earlier- this whole sick to the bitter end thing is a huge load of crap!! pregnancy is uncomfortable enough at the end without feeling like your going to throw up your own stomach constantly.

I have been home for a few days... been trying my damnedest on the oral meds. It is NOT WORKING. vomitted so much today i thought my head might explode. it's like week 7 all over again. Of course now i am in the ER getting fluids because the home care nurse kept blowing my veins... They are talking about admitting me until i can be induced... It's starting to look like another two weeks in the hospital. augh! something about being so close but still having so much to overcome makes it all more miserable. but you know we can do it because we have to. hang in there erin and anne!

Carlibear, I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. Damn HG!!! I know you have struggled really hard through this pregnancy and it sucks that it continues to be so tough for you. I am also struggling with the oral Meds but, I have been able to keep enough fluid and a little bit of food down so, I am hoping to avoid IV hydration. I say that today. We will see how I do over the next few days. I increased my Zofran today and keep hoping and praying it takes the edge off. Keep us posted on what's going on with you.

Annecan, Thanks for always responding to my posts. You are right it sucks that you could have written my post. It just sucks that there are so many of us that have to struggle to the bitter end. I have kept my food down today but, it has been a struggle with every bite and every sip. I hope u are having a better day today. If not, there is always tomorrow. I try to be optimistic. It just doesnt always work. You are in my thoughts..
