hate pregnancy

Ok so this is my third pregnancy and second baby. My daughter is almost three and I had a long pretty uncomfortable pregnancy with her. Well in the three years since I had her I forgot how truly awful pregnancy is. I feel guilty saying this but I just hate being pregnant. I am 10 weeks along and am so tired I could cry during the day. At night I can't sleep. I am constantly sick even with meds. My boobs are painful. Bit the worst part is almost no bladder control. If I cough I pee. If I sneeze I pee. If I puke (which is a lot) there is a river of pee on my bathroom floor and in my pants. I have tried everything to help that situation. I have done keigle exercises sincemy daughter was born. I love being a mom and love my children but this pregnancy thing is overrated. I hope after this trimester is over I get to enjoy it but I was sick with my daughter the whole 42 weeks.
Please tell me I am not the only one who feels like this? I literally want to punch women in the face who tell me how much they love being pregnant.

A month ago at work I threw up so hard that I peed my pants big time. I had a meeting with my regional in about three hours. I tied a sweater around my waist and carried my purse in front and walked three blocks to the mall. Luckily my office was so close! I was horrified!! When I told my husband what happened he couldnt stop laughing and said everytime I want new clothes Im just going to pee my pants:(

You are so not alone!!! Everyone is still surprised I went through with getting pregnant again after my last one. I feel you 100%. I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one who has peed all over the floor while puking. I have my c section in a week and a half and I'm so glad to be almost done!!

Well it is not easy to be pregnang i am 35 weeks i got gd so i hate being on a diet and all those sugar reads i have to do. I can hardly move and walk the hearthburn is killing me and so on but i think most woman said they love being pregnan after they have their babies because when you hold that little person on your arms you forgot all the pain. This is going to be my 3rd baby and i can said i totally forgot how does it feel to be pregnant untill i was pregnant again :-)

I agree!! I hate complaining beacuse I have pcos and tried to become pregnant for 10 years! Now that I am all I want to do is punch my husband for "knocking me up"!!! Nothing works for all day sickness. The only thing that makes me feel better is watching "what to expect when your expecting!" Some women have the glow. I have the I look like a zombie...

Btw I am happy and feel very blessed. I just want to fast forward to April.

I'm almost 37 weeks and I have been over this pregnancy thing a long time ago. It's absolutely terrible! I hate when people tell me that I seem to be having a good pregnancy they have no idea how bad I feel. I almost feel like a prisoner trapped in my own body. I love my son already but he can come anytime now.

Haha I appreciate this so much! I am a ftm and I had no idea how freaking hard it is to make a human! I swear, I thought I was tough until I began this roller coaster of hormones and symptoms! Cudos to the woman who love this crap, but I too am so so over it! (I'm 12wks BTW)
