Anyone else hate being pregnant?
I know I'm in a position many desperately want-and this makes me feel guilty but does anyone else HATE being pregnant? I do I hate it like poison.
My head has hurt now every single day for 7 weeks..there is nothing wrong, it's hormonal and muscular.
I live on paracetamol, I have no choice, I'm in so much pain it wakes me in the night, I'm signed off work, I cant drive, I cant walk anywhere cos of my back, I'm breathless, sick, dizzy, unhappy, isolated, I cant do anything for my son, I cant play with him cos the pain in my head, I cant pick him up cos of my back. I feel so desperate. I've got 9 weeks left and it feel like life sentence. I am so jealous of these woman that have great pregnancies. I can honestly say I feel incredibly ill for the whole thing and I feel like an effing invalid.
I know my baby will be worth it, but I am struggling so much right now. People see a pregnant person that doesn't look ill and think I'm just whinging ..but I'm in so much pain..there is nothing anyone can do. I'm fine, baby's fine I just have to sit it out. I cry all the time, I'm so desperate to feel normal again.
I love my baby so much but I need just one day free of pain..
I have no where else to vent this..thanks for listening..

I know people that really struggle and I really feel for them. I am sorry you feel lousy. My last one was tough. I tried not to complain but you can't help how you feel.

It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

Im with you too, I hate it with a passion. I have severe pelvis problems too in the second half of pregnancy which is beyond pain I can explain, it messed with my sanity. But even that aside, I hate it. I always felt so uncomfortable, ugly, self conscious and I have never missed it after the birth. It is soooooo worth it, but still, I wish sometimes the man could carry the baby.

Omegod so do I! My DH, bless him turned round and said 'I'm so sorry, I wish I could take her for an afternoon to give you a break!' . He's so lovely, I'm so lucky to have a man like that. Don't get me wrong I'd save this baby's life over mine I already love her so much, but being pregnant is my worst nightmare.
If the reward wasn't so massively brilliant I'd never o it in a million years. My DS's pregnancy was crap, this one is purely vile..
Wow these bubbas know where to get you!
Thanks for the words, I was sooo down earlier I get a bit desperate

Well if it were possible, i'd want him to take her for a little longer than an afternoon, lol. But bless him, my DH thinks its harder for a man! I am planning another pregnancy but am absolutely dreading it. It is the main reason I am going HT, it has to be a girl so I never have to do it again. If I didnt have to do the pregnancy, I would keep going naturally.
I hope the next 9 weeks goes quickly for you, I know it seems like forever when your waiting though. Hopefully she'll suprise you and come a week or 2 early X4 x 2000, 2003, 2007, 2009

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
