Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

Loved it the first time around and loving it the second.
I can't wait to start feeling the baby move and all. That's when it gets even better.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

It is hard to say-- while I do love the fact that I am having a , and the kicking and movements and semi-guilt free eating is fun, I have been feeling pretty crappy since day one. As soon as one annoying symptom leaves, it is replaced by another more annoying symptom. I cannot wait to have the baby and not be preggo anymore, but at the same time, it is going to be weird to not be pregnant anymore. It is bittersweet, I suppose.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

love it! I've been very lucky this pregnancy .

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I've loved every second of being pregnant, even as uncomfortable as I am, it's so worth it to me!

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

Don't hate, don't looove it.

I'm very fortunate because pregnancy is kind to me. My first pregnancy was a breeze and so far this one is a *little* tougher but still far from bad.

It definitely has it's moments.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

as of right now its ok. im only about 4 weeks but i have major bloat and gas pains so thats not fun i cant wait to feel the baby move and kick! ask me in a few months and ill let you know

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I'm lucky in that I have had a really smooth pregnancy...at 26 weeks, I have to say that it's been pretty textbook. I love feeling her move and seeing my belly move too. The only thing that I have had issues with is the weight gain. I keep telling myself it's for her...and I haven't been as hard on myself lately...but as someone who has always had body issues, gaining weight has been a little rough on me, emotionally.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I love every single minute of it, even the sick ones - it is truly the most inspiring thing in the world to know that my body is creating a life.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I love it! Even though I was so sick for so long with this pregnancy & I'm starting to have a lot of trouble with my back, I am really enjoying it. I love the kicking & the feeling of life growing in me.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I hated months 1 - 4. I was constantly sick and tired.

Months 5 - 6 were great. I felt my best and really had that glow

Months 7 - 9 were filled with aches, pains, so tired and every 3rd tri symptom possible

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

LOVE it. No amount of discomfort could make me love it less.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I am super uncomfortable being that I am only a few weeks away from having my , but I love being pregnant! I was sick with m/s until I was 16 weeks along, and that was rough...I know that I will miss having her with me everywhere I go. I love her hiccups and her little feet that poke out the sides of my stomach!

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

absolutely love it!

while i've had my small share of aches and pains, what pregnancy doesn't? i know the little i've gone thru is nothing compared to what others go thru.

at 35 weeks i am so happy i've gotten this far and i can't wait for the weeks to come to experience this miracle of birth!

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

Neither of my pregnancies have been easy at all but I still say I LOVE being pregnant even though I complain about it when I am (really only at the very end). The reason I say I love it is because even though having your baby here is the best thing in the world both times I missed being pregnant SO much. I am really having a hard time accepting that DS was most likely my last baby.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

Loved my pregnancy with DS#1. DS#2 was not as much fun, especially towards the end and not being able to rest. With DC#3 so far I am so sick on and off and I am sooooo tired but can't sleep (because I have two other kids). Maybe if I was able to get more rest it would be so bad.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I am very very grateful to be pregnant, especially after a MC. I certainly don't hate it, but I am really really looking forward to it being over. It's a means to an ends. I do not really like being pregnant. A lot of it has to do with my gestational diabetes- the blood testing & constant eating according to the diet is not pleasant at all. I'm looking forward to it all being over.

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

I am only 8 weeks, but voted can take it or leave it. I love the fact that I am bringing a life into this world and I am very grateful for having gotten pregnant. That being said, I am incredibly tired all the time, have food/smell aversions, M/S (but it is really all-day nausea), am bloated and, as someone else said, I feel like a shell of my former self. What a perfect way to put it. I can't do the things I used to do and I can't go out with friends the way I used to. I have to say that I miss that and didn't expect things to change *quite* so quickly. I am very much looking forward to the second trimester, which sounds like there is a bit of a rebound. Here's hoping I am someone who can vote LOVE IT in a few months!

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

i love it! im only 16w6d but i haven't had to deal with any morning sickness so I feel really blessed! i cant say how I'll be feeling later but so far its all still so unreal! I can't wait to feel my babyyyy

Re: Love or Hate being pregnant???

i absolutely love it! im 14 weeks and besides being tired, i am absolutely blessed to be carrying and growing a life inside of me.
