ok so many women lately have said OHH I LOVED BEING PREGNANT! well i dont i love have my child in my arms begin sick as can be 24 7 and peeing all the time not my idea of a great 9months so i wanted to see what others felt

 

[notjustmamie]

Uh. I so do NOT love being pregnant. I think it's amazing, but I could so do without the months on end of not feeling so good.

With DD, I felt horrible for the first about six months. Finally, late second trimester I started feeling better. Third trimester was kind of neat, until I started feeling pretty ungainly the last month or so.

I do I do! I truly love being pregnant. I love growing a baby. I love how my body changes, I love eating what ever I want (in moderation of course) I love listening to the heartbeat, I love feeling the movements. I love being seen by the midwives and hearing what a great incubator I am, lol. I don't love not seeing my toes however or being able to shave the whoo whoo. I don't love the sleepless nights at the end because my preggo butt can't get comfy. I love the big bump I have already. I can't wait for it to get bigger and bigger. I love the glow. I love how healthy I am. I love mostly all of it.

And the kicker, I love the whole labor/birth experience. I love allowing my body to do what God created it for. I endure the pain with happiness and strength. Strange bird, I know!

For the most part I love being pregnant! I have always just been mildly sick with my first three pregnancies, and so far this one has been easier that way since I haven't thrown up even once.

I'd say second trimester is probably my favorite time though. Big enough to really feel pregnant, feel the baby moving, etc...but not so big that my back and feet ache.

I LOVE being pregnant... except for morning sickness and pushing the baby out

 

[daisyem]

I really do love being pregnant. Until about 38 weeks. Then it gets a little old. 41 weeks is really old...

I told dh the other day though, if I only had to be preg for 38-39 weeks (I'm a 41+ weeker), I could have 20 kids!

ETA: Sorry for the due date crashing! I thought this was pregnancy in general when I posted

 

[shakenbake]

dont get me wrong i LOVE feeling the baby move and i love knowing i made this happen that this beautiful baby grew inside me and lived off me for 9months but the not being able to eat with out throwing up UGHHHH i never felt this bad with my 2 boys and i my first i was 14! this time has been the worst with my last i did get prickly heat rash and he was born in oct so im HOPING this time i dont this one has to be a girl bc my boys never made me this sick

 

[shakenbake]

I do not love being pregnant, but I do love the end result!

 

[belltree]

I feel, if you aks me in a couple months I could say the same thing. I am finally getting a better handle on morning sickness, or maybe it is slowly subsiding. My constipation or bloating is ok most of the time. I am slowly picking up on my exercises again, and started with short running intervals in my morning walk. Spring is finally coming and the tulips are ready to bloom any day now. Life is good!

I love the mellow feeling I have in general about life

I am fascinating by the changes of my body
- the big boops (which don't hurt anymore)
- my hips being more slender
- my little pouch
- feeling my uterus and connecting to my baby
- knowing that my body can support life! How cool is that!

I am so excited about planing our life as family, thinking about things we need, things that might change, things I would like to learn about. It just all keeps me happy and smiling. I know there will be stress and difficult time, but I read about those and they will come when they do and then I will have to deal with them. No sense worrying about things that haven't happened yet.

My husband is just great and caring and so understanding and supportive of my aversions and cravings and needs

I hate being pregnant. There are a few things I like, I like feeling the baby move (at least in the beginning), I like hearing the heartbeat. I find the whole process fasciniating. And I love giving birth!!!! But to be totally 100% honest, I hate being pregnant. But I love love love the end result so I put up with the 9 months.

 

[kriket]

crashing from May.

I hate being pregnant. I was super sick for 10 wks, then it was tolerable but I was a hormonal bioch, now I feel like a bus

I want a baby, not sausage toes. I don't know if I will have another biologically. We'll see.

 

[artgoddess]

not in your DDC, hell I'm not even pregnant but I had to crash the thread. I was the opposite as you, I had really easy pregnancies and I like being pregnant. But then it seemed like everyone and their mother felt the need to tell me how miserable I must be, because I was pregnant. It got so bad I didn't even go to church the last month and a half of my pregnancy because i would leave feeling so negative.

My point is I don't think people have a clue when they talk to pregnant ladies, they just say stupid things because they feel the need to say something.

 

[CarrieCo]

I thought I would love it..... but so far I don't! If I'm not feeling nauseous and trying not to move while shoving food in my mouth .... then I forget that I'm prego! lol. I'm hoping that I will love it soon.

 

[calidarling]

Last time without a child, i loved it. This time, i am so happy to be having a baby, but the morning sickness is killing me. My poor kid asks if i am going to throw up every time i go to the bathroom. Once this passes i will love it again.

 

[jess5377]

I think I'm going to have to go with "it depends."

 

[shakenbake]

man it feels GREAT to not be alone! thanks gals!

 

[Mommy2Haley]

I really want to love it but at the moment I'm just not feeling it. I disliked being pg with DD because I was just so anxious to have her born. I told myself I'd enjoy this and I'm trying, but right now I'm just so darn tired and feeling icky. Plus DD is having teething issues at night.

And I don't feel/look pg yet. I laid on my belly on the floor today and it didn't bother me. Of course that set off a lot of irrational fears which make me dislike pg so much more. Ugh.

 

[vegasgrl]

I really truly hate being pregnant. I'm already thinking this may be the only baby I ever have.

It's, well, interesting to hear from those of you who love it. But I think you're

I though the same thing w/ DD, as I was entering into my 6 month- PUKING. uke "I'll never do this again, NEVER, EVER AGAIN!" But, here I am!
