Try being infertile and having to do IVF... Pregnancy is a blessing not "annoying" enjoy the journey of creating a person and be grateful to make it full term, I'm sure there are a lot of ppl out there that have lost a child early on that would hate to read that comment

What an insensitive thing to say woth so many people who cant get pregnant and would sell their soul to have the chance to spend 9months growimg a new life, being pregnant is wonderful i am grinning every second im reminded (even when its by exhaustion or sickness). Be grateful you are so lucky!

I was told I would never have babies. We had to go through meds the first time and took us almost 5 years of meds with my daughter and we found out we are expecting again. I feel very blessed and even tho some of actual symptoms (getting up 20x at night to potty) can get annoying, pregnancy itself is not. We know the results when we get pg and if we don't want to go through it we know what to do to prevent it. If people want babies without being pg there's always adoption.

I didn't say I didnt wanna have my bby I juss dont think I'm can bear nines months safely. I understand some ppl can't have kids which is sad. I juss dont wanna do it for nine months with all the things that can go wrong. I get really bad migraines since I was 12 about every two months or so and they usually last a week or more. Nothing I takes works for them so there is fear for me when I get one and can only take tylenol. They prevent me from doing anything I lose my appetite. I wont eat or drink for days only sleeping in a dark dark room with NO noise. I wanna have a healthy baby I juss wish the pregnancy was faster like a time machine

I get what you're saying. I think you are being misunderstood. I think pregnanacy can sometimes be hard and it's definitely no walk in the park for some people. I personally enjoy being pregnant but I understand it's not for everyone. You go through a lot emotionally and physically but it is definitely worth it. Just hang in there and remember it's just temporary and before you know it, you will have your precious miracle in your arms. All the pain and symptoms of pregnancy will be forgotten before you know it ;-)

I think you might be the only one. I'm soaking up and enjoying every moment of this. You never know when its going to be somebodys last day, including babys. So I choose to embrace this time and enjoy this beautiful blessing I've been given. Such an amazing thing! 9 months is a small amount of time to sacrafice in exchange for a lifetime of love & happiness :-)

I somewhat see your point. My husband and I are super excited to start our family but I told him if it was biologically possible for him to carry the kid, i would let him. But who knows, I might feel different once my little one starts to pop and move around.  It just makes it tough being a career mom, going to grad school, and take the best physical care of myself at the same time so our baby has the best oportunities in life.

Don't feel bad. I'd rather the stork deliver it. As I can't wait for it to get here cause I'm ridiculously excited but 9 months is a long time and aching pains :\ but bunny at the end its worth it an that's how you will get through.. I'm right there with u. Don't let anyone make u feel bad!

I've had several miscarriages and while I'm glad to bed pregnant, I still hate it. Pregnancy *****. Don't feel bad for hating it :)

I can see your point though I don't agree fully. I am nearly 15 weeks and have had severe hyperemesis since 6 weeks. I've been hospitalised twice due to severe starvation and dehydration because I was vomiting up to 25 times a day. Most of the time there was nothing left and was dry heaves. I have been on Zofran since 8 weeks as I tried not to take any meds but I was losing weight fast and I am now over a stone under my pre-pregnancy weight and I was already a healthy bmi. I already have a 5 year old and this pregnancy has been extremely difficult especially as I am also trying to do my phd at the same time. My husband has picked up a LOT of slack as prior to pregnancy I was already disabled due to severe EDS and PoTS. Because of the EDS I am already on crutches for SPD and all this led to me finally snapping last week when I couldn't stop crying to my husband about how tough I am finding it. Don't get me wrong I am glad to be pregnant and I cannot wait to feel my baby move, I just wish all the issues would stop or even if the HG went away I would maybe feel a bit better. I've had miscarriages in the past and had one immediately before this pregnancy so this baby is very much wanted. I just need to stop comparing my situation with other pregnant women as I constantly feel like I am being tested. However I try every day to see the positives in the pregnancy and that is as long as I have a healthy baby then it's a success. You need to try and see the positives right now otherwise it will drag in. Hopefully when you start to feel the baby move you'll begin to be more positive.

I kinda understand what you mean I'm currently pregnant with my 3rd baby my first two pregnancy's were a breeze no sickness, tiredness was hardly like I was pregnant now this pregnancy is awful I'm  constantly throwing up I'm always tired I feel like I'm not looking after my kids properly due to just having no energy and if this is what my whole pregnancy is gonna be like I just don't think I can cope I'm lucky my partner helps as much as he can but I feel pure us less :(

I understand really. I myself also suffer the same way with migraines, plus am diabetic and have a 12 year old and a 1 1/2 yr old so even when I get a bad migraine, I don't have the option of laying in bed until it goes away no matter how bad I want to. Plus since I got pg I've been dealing with constant sinus drainage which makes me wake up choking. The diabetes in itself is a pain, eating and testing on a time schedule even if I'm not hungry or feel sick. Just remember that no matter how bad it is right now, it's worth it (even after the baby is born and you can no longer stay in bed for days and sleep off those migraines).

I get what you are saying.   Happy to have the baby but pregnancy isn't always easy.  I know I'm excited about the baby not so excited about giving myself a shot in the stomach once a day for the next 200 plus days.  Things might get better for you as your pregnancy goes on and it's worth it in the end. Also each pregnancy is different so while you might be miserable this time next time could be alot easier.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BEING PREGNANT AND EVERYTHING THAT COMES WITH IT! Call me weird but I don't mind the healthier lifestyle, the sickness,all the aches and pains and gross stuff behind closed doors no one elaborated on before.
I LOVE feeling my angel move and having terrible mood swings from crying to screaming. I LOVE knowing I have been blessed to be trusted with such a sweet innocent soul.
I have 1 child already. His pregnancy was a Breeze compared.
I have worked 12 hr Nightshift tired, vomiting, hungry and achy and survived it all. I have debated calling in many times and have yet to.
Maybe my 3 prior miscarriages have something to do with it? My love for children? Either way it's an experience of a lifetime. Conatipation, gas, emotional train wreck, midnight cravings, wishing to crawl into bed. All of it.

Girl you are not alone! Third pregnancy and if i could snap my fingers my lil blessing would be here but i have a ways to go! Pregnancy is not easy for everyone and unfortunately yes there are many ppl who have a difficult time getting preggos but that doesnt mean us ladies that can get preggos easily are having the smoothest rides either! I stay in the hospital for diff reasons and am a high risk pregnancy. So excited about my baby but being pregnant no thanks daddy couldve took this 9 mths for me!
