FTM not enjoying this pregnancy
| Mon, 12-05-2011 - 8:49pm |
I'm 29 and my hubby is 39 and this pregnancy wasn't a surprise, but we weren't avoiding it either. The baby is due June 2nd. We are prepared financially and emotionally, but we've got our fair share of anxieties. I always thought I would enjoy being pregnant, but thus far, not so much. I'm 14wk3d and for the past 8 wks my MS has been terrible. I'm seeing a midwife with the plan to deliver at a birth center. I had my 1st midwife appt at 5wks and the MS was pretty much limited to transiant nausea that some cheerios and hard candy solved. Everyday became worse than the last. I finally threw in the towel with homeopathic remedies and went to my regular dr

Just my 2 cents...I didn't enjoy any of my pregnancies. There was always something bothering me ( i wont list them). This pregnancy is not much diiferent, MS, Vericose veins (already!), joint pain...you name it. I hate being pregnant, but I LoVE the end result! Thisis my 3rd so I have less guilt about it...it's no fun for me, I don't 'glow' - I complain for 9 months. Having a child to love, and watching them learn and grow is my reward for this! It will be yours too! Just hang in there...I feel your pain. HTH
Thanks, everyone. I know it will be worth it in a few short months, and I will get to dodge being preggers through the heat of the summer :smileyvery-happy: I think I'm just feeling especially disappointed with being so miserable, because it's the holidays. I love getting into the holiday spirit and this definetly puts a damper on my holiday spirit.
