Unhappy

I'm 13 Weeks with my first and totally miserable. I'm embarrassed to say it but I hate being pregnant. I am excited to bring my baby into the world, but other than that I feel terrible. I have been so sick and exhausted and it seems like I get new symptoms everyday.
Not only am I physically ill, but I know several ladies who are pregnant as well and they are so happy and haven't had any problems. They also have the cutest little bumps but I haven't started showing at all even though we are due at the same time.
This isn't really a question, just needed to vent a little. Thanks.

You're not alone hun. This is my fourth and I've been miserable the whole time. It's just all the hormones. Once you start to feel the baby moving regularly it will make your day. Chin up. It'll get better.

I'm 28w4d and I completely understand! I lost 15 lbs in the first 4 months cuz I was suck all day and night. The only thing that kept me going was knowing that the more symptoms and the more intense they were the less chance I had of mc. That and it was always reassuring to know everything was going right. It is hard but try to think positive, reassuring thoughts for your baby. Keep your head up. Hope it gets better for you!

I know how you feel :) I'm 32 weeks and the only things I'm enjoying about pregnancy is feeling my baby moving around and kicking (LOVE that part) and my baby-bump because I think it's pretty cute. Other than that, I was extremely sick at the start so I lost weight, I can't eat so much stuff because it makes me sick even now, my blood pressure is low so every day I go to work not knowing if I have to come home from fainting or being dizzy, my back is really sore, I can't stand up for too long because I get sore and dizzy, I can't sit down for too long cos my butt and back get sore, and I can't walk around for too long because I start to feel like crap. And I am exhausted all the time lol!! So it's not been fun. But it's all worth it at the end :) just try thinking positive; this is all happening for a reason and at the end you get the most awesome gift ever! A few months of being miserable is worth it when you get your little baby in your arms :D
