Oh no...need a vent? Join In.
Getting dressed this morning and catch a glimpse of my (disgusting) thigh out of the corner of my eye and notice.. what I think.. are spider veins!!
Why me? Why do I have these? I can never get rid of them can I? they are dark and came out of nowhere. What the efffff.. 
its a sad day. I am also going to cry bc no matter how well I shave the hair on my legs grow back in .5 seconds so I am sitting here in a dress with spikey legs
Feel free to vent as well...

Re: Oh no...need a vent. Join In.
To answer the spider vein question- I have had them for years on my thighs- not sure why.
I don't think I got any more since being preggo but I do hear you can get them from the stress of pushing and labor.
To get rid of them you'd need to go to a Dr to either have them injected or lasered. I hear the laser doesn't work as well as the injections.
I hate mine!!!!
And as for a vent to join in- I would like mine to be about my CANKLES!
I can't stand my swollen feet and ankles anymore...NOTHING helps them anymore.
They are disgusting and I'm so embarrased that I just sit at my desk as much as possible to hide them.
I have the feet of a 400 lb woman!

I figured the spider veins were coming.. my mom has them so It was just a matter of time...Maybe I just noticed them now bc I am SO pale at the moment.

Re: Oh no...need a vent? Join In.
Oh, I can use to vent! I am a week overdue. I've lost some of my mucus plug every day for the last 4 days with nothing started. I'm 2cm dilated and only somewhat effaced. The baby is now on a nerve on my left side, when I've had horrible sciatica on my right side since 8 weeks. I'm basically disabled and can't care for DD1 on my own...I can barely walk and can't stand in one place. OB wanted to induce my overnight last night but I refused...I'm not spending 2 nights in the hospital if I don't have to and I'm not delivering overnight with such little sleep (I can't sleep any longer). I'm going to have to wait until Friday. I'm afraid they won't give me an epi. when they see my pain/inability to walk or lay on my back b/c they will fear disc problems, though that isn't my problem. I just want this over already! 41 weeks is too long! At least DD2 seems fine...just too comfy in there!

Re: Oh no...need a vent? Join In.
This kid is pressing on my Vajay with his head and it feels like needles at times.
I feel like I may tip over, and don't get me started on this HEAT!
Also, I decided to "nest" and do housework yesterday. I was vacuuming the stairs and when I went to stand up I thought my back was going to explode.
I had to lay in my bed as still as possible b/c anyway I turned made me want to vomit.
Also, I started an Online Baby Pool...and if people keep saying I'm going past my due date, they will be "un-friended"

Re: Oh no...need a vent? Join In.
I noticed 2 spider veins on the back of my calf the other week - while still light I'm pretty sure they will get darker as the weeks go by. My mom suffered with them throughout all 3 pregnancies - eventually needing surgery to get rid of them after having my baby brother. Woo Hoo!!!
I hate that my a ss is as large as my stomach. If I didn't know any better I'd think IT was pregnant 
I hate how my SIL is EXACTLY the same amount of weeks along as I am - down to the day & she looks like she gets smaller and smaller as the pregnancy progresses
I hate how tired and winded I get doing the most simple thing. I try to get some mild excercise in everyday - like walking and I am completely SHOT after the first 5 minutes. I feel like I'm lugging a weight vest around my torso. I end up having to turn around after the first 15 mins because I can't deal anymore.
I hate how EVERYDAY there is something new happening to me - at least that is how I feel. Something on my body has gotten bigger - like my boobs. I've already purchased new bras - 2 times because they keep expanding. I will NEVER for the life of me understand women who get implants that are bigger than a C cup - NEVER.
Hmmm that may be all I can think of for now

Why me? Why do I have these? I can never get rid of them can I? they are dark and came out of nowhere. What the efffff..
I think there are procedures to get rid of spider veins. I had SV before i got pregnant and of course they are getting worse now. I am going to look into the treatments after I am done with having kids

Re: Oh no...need a vent? Join In.
I am super annoyed that I am two days past my due date and there's no indication of this kid joining the world anytime soon. It doesn't appear like my belly is dropping or anything like that. I haven't felt a contraction.
And people who are due weeks after me are going into labor left and right.
In spite of my whining, the last thing I want is to go into labor on a holiday weekend since weekends in general at the hospital are no good in terms of staffing and whatnot, forget a holiday weekend!

Re: Oh no...need a vent? Join In.
I've been forewarned by BTDT moms about veins and all sorts of other skin things that just pop up during pregnancy. I feel like designating a piggy bank to dermatologist money, so I can spend a full day getting everything zapped later on.
My vent is that I'm so sick of getting sick. I know it's a "good thing" but that doesn't make it feel any better. My stomach feels sore today from all, well, activity. I'm 9 weeks today and I'm  that's there's only a few more weeks of this.
