Hiya ladies, I was inspired by another thread to post this one. This is not for the mommas who had a blissful pregnancy and are talking about can't wait to be knocked up again, no sir! The invitation stands for all who could use a moment to shake off the sorrows of being pregnant. And after that we take heart and go for the finish line :-) love to all!

5. I miss having sex (too painful)
4. Fibroid pain whenever baby moves (its suppose to be adorable feeling ur bubba moves. Mine unknowingly just kicks the hell out of this fibroid)
3. Loosening joints/ round ligament pains and back aches
2. Heartburn!! OMG I CANNOT TELL U HOW MUCH I HATE THIS ONE!
1. Last and certainly the worst... Peeing at night aaargggh
So, what are yours? Help me with a good laugh so we can survive another day. Thanks!!

5 - having to get up and pee all night.
4 - not being able to put on socks by myself..it's winter here in N.Z.
3 - pain when trying to move and turn in bed, and walking like im 70 when I get out of bed.
2 - spewing a little every time I bend down, and getting breathless when having a conversation thats more than 2 sentences long.
1 - wee-ing a little every time I cough, sneeze, blow my nose or try lifting slightly heavy objects!!! (WORST)
Does it really have to be limited to 5 lolz there are soooo many things I will not miss about being pregnant. Although I love the fact I can have a baby with our genetic problem deciding which pregnancy will be successful, and i also love love love feeling my baby move around, it's amazing. We are so truly blessed.

I miss Sleeping on my stomach and drinking beer.
What they don't tell you: strange discharge, crying over nothing, tired all the time, feet swelling, tastes changing. Some of my favorite foods I can't stand right now. I hate having to pee all the time. Getting full faster but hungry quicker.

Oouuch! I second y'all on these aches! Reading all this makes me realise such troopers we are! I'm so proud of us!
Alright here's mine.
1. Waking up 3-5 times a night just to pee. I'm 16 weeks and thought this was supposed to let up by now. Nope!
2. Constipation.. who knew I would get so excited on days when I was able to poop.
3. The dreams and nightmares I get now wake me up almost as much as peeing. It's impossible to get any sleep!
4. I feel dizzy all the time which makes me sick to my stomach so I'm limited on what I can do all the time.
5. Morning sickness.. even at 16 weeks I'm still constantly sick, been to the hospital 3 times and now I'm stuck with a zofran pump. This is by far the worst part of my pregnancy so far :( Feels like an eternity waiting for this little one to show up!!

Louisie_1986, thanks much for sharing. I can only imagine having toddlers on top of a difficult pregnancy... Bless you.
5. Fainting
4. I miss enjoying meat. Gone vego this pregnancy.
3. Heartburn at night
2. Back pain - I am seriously considering a wheelchair
1. 24/7 Fatigue - I'm basically homebound as I can't face the thought of getting my 2 toddlers ready and lifting into and out of the car due to fatigue and back pain...
It was smooth sailing physically until 21 weeks... Only just got hit with most of these just recently but I don't know how I'm going to survive another 17 weeks of this :/
