i have a love/hate relationship with my pregnancy

Overall, I really haevnt had complications (crossing fingers that I don't start!) but I've been lukcy, other than some viscious heartburn and the normal headaches, morning sickness and sleepiness of the 1st tri... also at 30 weeks, Im starting to get really uncomfortable . Sometimes I can't wait to have my normal self back, and be able to go workout at the gym as hard as I want, eat whatever i want, not worry about potential strecth marks, etc... but at the same time, I feel sad that I may only have 2 months left to carry these little girls..

One of them likes to sit in my rib cage which drives me crazy but I love this time that Im able to bond with them in a way that noone else can.

Its so weird to have come to the home stretch so quickly!

i have a love/hate relationship with my pregnancy

At 31 weeks, I feel exactly the same way! I love being pregnant and getting to feel my baby girl kick and move around and knowing that for now she's all mine. But at the same time I miss being able to do the things I used to to and I am starting to get more and more uncomfortable. But I think that as happy as I'll be once she's born, part of me will miss being pregnant too.

37w5d here. All I can say is sing it sister. I too have had a very good pregnancy but can't wait to get my body back to myself. No more swollen feet, legs, fingers, arms; being able to bend over; being able to see more parts of my body; not feeling like an elephant; etc.

Re: i have a love/hate relationship with my pregnancy

I feel the same way. I can't wait to have my body just belong to me again and feel like my old self again, I'm uncomfortable and have no energy, I've also had huge ankles since about 17 werks (and I had a horrendous first trimester), but I do love my belly and this baby that's kicking and punching me makes me so happy!

I also agree it's going so fast, so I'm trying to stay focused on the positives that are a part of this experience and not the negatives. We will probably only have one child and the other day my DH made a comment about how this is probably the only time I'll ever be pregnant. Much to my surprise my reaction was not "thank god!" but rather it made me feel sad!

I was talkign with a friend about this yesterday and she said that after Baby is here, I probably will totally forget how much i hate pregnancy and will be dying to do it again ... she's probably right Chat Icon

i have a love/hate relationship with my pregnancy

I feel the same way. I do not like being pregnant at all! I am so over it and cannot wait till the baby comes. When people tell me how much they loved being pregnant I am amazed b/c that's how much i dislike it. I want my body and energy back, normal taste buds and out of maternity clothes. I do not find them comfy at all!

Um in response to you forgetting hating pregnancy... I can testify that she is 100% completely WRONG!!! Hated being preggos the first time and hate it even more this time because it's taking sooooo long!!!

the only good part is feeling the baby move..

so if you hate it like I do.. you wont forget...Chat Icon

BTDT also, it depends because I concur with your friend. I never minded being pregnant the first time around. At the end, it got old and I was happy it was over but I did miss being pregnant.


I couldnt wait to be pregnant again, now, i have a feeling I wont miss it after the baby is born Chat Icon i think im pretty much done with being pregnant.
