What's your worst pregnancy symptom?

Right now mine is my heavy, swollen vag. I'm one of the lucky few who gets to deal with varicose veins. The joy. I'm only 19 weeks so relief is not in sight. That's ok though, I know it's worth it!

Swollen ankles and hands at this point. And my hands feel like pins and needles and I can't lift things because of it...

Morning sickness for 22 weeks was also quite terrible.

I totally understand about not wanting to do it again! My husband and I wanted 4 kids then once I was pregnant I was like "let's just take it one at a time!" I'm sure we'll have more, but oh, pregnancy can be rough.

In the beginning i was so sick I lost 26 pounds. I felt like I had a raw chicken taste in my mouth. Then my vagina swelled up like that. Then it was acid reflux.  Then it was insomnia.  
Now I would say hemorrhoids.

Omg I'm 26 weeks and as of right now it has to be insomnia, morning sickness (I didn't have it during my first trimester but amazingly it's here now, I can't even keep water down ugh!!!), heartburn, an achy private, and a belly that feels like the weight of the world is in it lol. Although motherhood a wonderful journey, I think this will be my first and last ;-)

For me, at this second would be my headache. All day I've had it. But worse so far is when I get leg aches and feeling restless.

Sciatic nerve pain! It's ruining sleep, standing and walking... and I'm only 18 weeks. Long road ahead. I had this with my first born as well.
