Tired of the weird feeling of being pregnant

Hi everyone,
I'm 30 weeks pregnant and I'm starting to get a bit fed up with it all...
Is it the hormones that make me feel this way? I feel so weird too. I can't really explain what I'm feeling. I also don't quite have the realization that I'll soon become a mother, pff, I don't know anymore..
I've also been really tired this past week again
Does anyone else have the same feeling or something similar?
Greetings,
Zoeb..

    The last few weeks are tough too. Hang in there. You'll get something beautiful in return.

    Hormones.. 100% relatable. Just let those feelings be, accept them, and remind yourself that it will get better. Maybe you'll even see things completely differently tomorrow! As a pregnant person, you're just not supposed to be able to follow through with everything..

    Thanks for your lovely responses
    I'll indeed just let things unfold; the final stages are indeed tough

    I heard it too, it's all part of it, right?

    Yeah, unfortunately yes. I still feel so...

    So relatable... I'm 30 weeks myself and have already said a few times that I'll be glad to have control over my own body again. I'm also sleeping so poorly. But whenever I feel the little one, it makes me so incredibly happy!

    So relatable! I'm super happy that we're having a baby, but I'm now really sure that being pregnant is just not for me I just want my body back a bit. Sometimes I do get a little jealous of women who say how wonderful they find being pregnant and that they're totally enjoying it. I really don't know that feeling.

    Unfortunately, I've felt this way from the first week I knew I was pregnant. But I'm really happy now that he's swimming around so nicely in my belly every day. That's exactly why I can better understand why we all do it.

    Oh, so relatable. I really hate being pregnant nothing fun about it, if you ask me... Those nine months feel like an eternity.

    Relatable, I'm 28 weeks and have had it too, and then I still have a little while to go.

    Already almost 33 weeks, almost 34 again, but indeed happy that it'll all be behind us soon!! Can't wait until everything is normal again. It could also be all the hormones.. )

    So relatable! I'm now a good 39 weeks along and have been struggling since week 29... early contractions and exhaustion. I'm especially exhausted from the early contractions. I'm going a bit crazy. I've already spent two nights in the hospital with a Pethidine injection, which is nice. Just to get a good night's sleep—I really get a boost of energy for a few days after. Next week I'm being induced, so then I can finally hold our girl. Is it still somewhat bearable for you?

    That’s just part of it, unfortunately.
    I hope you’ll feel a bit better in the last few weeks, because the ‘very last’ weeks are the hardest (for me at least). I didn’t have a very pleasant pregnancy either. The pink cloud was more like a dark thundercloud. :-D
    I also had this ‘weird feeling’ during your time. I didn’t know what to do with myself, felt restless and couldn’t pinpoint the cause. Hormones, emotions? No idea! But now I’m at 40+ weeks and the restlessness has turned into anticipation for the birth.
    Wishing you lots of success!

    40+ here still no sign that they'll come out. Ben is really eager for them to induce soon. But haha

    I'm now 36 weeks and 2 days. I've been feeling worse and worse since yesterday with hard contractions and constant pain in my belly. Is that normal? Does anyone have experience with this? And I get tired just sitting still, already out of breath.
