Mentally tired

Hey guys, I feel kinda stupid posting on here cause a lot of y’all are going through your depression because you’ve already had your kids and have actual problems and I’ve not even had my baby yet. I’m 38 weeks pregnant today and I just feel so hopeless and hurt and honestly tired. This pregnancy has been beyond painful and stressful, I’ve tried to talk to my care team and they just brush off my concerns and cries for help. My therapist is beyond worried about my mental health during this pregnancy because the pain has basically crippled me. I’m unable to walk on my own, stand up, cook, be in any kind of heat, shower on my own, nothing. I’ve begged and begged for them to schedule an induction date or for them to do some tests or literally anything to find out why I’m in so much pain, why I am constantly dizzy, lightheaded, throwing up 5 times a day, fainting, why my legs and body shake uncontrollably when I try to stand or move and no one will do anything. This is my first child and it’s supposed to be a beautiful and exciting time but I don’t feel excited, I’m not even excited to meet my baby because all I can think about is the pain I’m going to continue to go through until I finally go into labor.. I just can’t keep doing this, I feel empty and void.

Aww I am so sorry you feel this way. It isn’t the same but during my last few weeks I felt like all I could do was sit in one specific chair. It hurt otherwise - and my low belly always hurt. I wasn’t sure what to expect but it definitely was not that. Can you take some time to put your feet up and relax? Maybe have some candles and listen to soft music to help with the pain?

@Sandra I’m trying to do so, and I’m trying to stay positive but I just feel so lost.
