I vomit at least once a day, can't go to the bathroom if I'm on my anti-nausea meds (Zofran causes severe constipation), and I've recently been suffering from nasal congestion. One pregnancy site I read says, "While annoying at times, keep in mind that a stuffy nose is nothing dangerous and will generally resolve itself shortly after delivery. Consider it another reminder that you are creating the miracle of life within you! Keeping a box of aloe infused tissues handy will do wonders for your spirits and your nasal discharge."<br /><br />!!!<br /><br />That writer must be either a man or one of those women who "loves being pregnant." I wish I knew more specifics, so that I could throw something at him/her.<br /><br />I adopted my first child and have been so nostalgic for that experience. Basically, my husband and I went on an awesome vacation to central Asia, where I ate and drank what I wanted, and returned home with a beautiful little girl.<br /><br />If there are three kids in our future, you know by which route he/she will get here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-51920152161282122582009-04-09T17:02:00.000-04:002009-04-09T17:02:00.000-04:00It is so great to know that I am not the only one ...It is so great to know that I am not the only one that feels this way. This is my 1st and will be ONLY pregnancy. I am so over the insane nausea, fatigue, clothes not fitting, not sleeping well, and every smell making me want to hurl. What up with all the women say how it "not so bad". Yes it is! I wonder if childbirth causes amnesia? <BR/><BR/>I miss my pre-pregnancy life, and I am only 11 weeks…I will never tell anyone how it's "not so bad".

It's bad enough to be stretching my body out but there's no way I am going through this again. Adoption will bring our next children, not me. Can't wait to go back on birth control. I'm not as sick as I was before but reading all of the "lovely" things that are going to continue to happen to my body makes me sick. And if one more person tells me how excited they are I'm going to pop them in the nose. If they're so excited they can go get pregnant - and shut up about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558474.post-81456052076694032642008-08-07T13:50:00.000-04:002008-08-07T13:50:00.000-04:00It's nice to hear everyone hates pregnancy as much...It's nice to hear everyone hates pregnancy as much as i do! and you know what i hate my hubby too.

This sucks so bad, I just want to crawl into a hole and hibernate until I am done incubating. <BR/>I am only 9 weeks and the thought of having to do this for pretty much THE REST OF THE YEAR is depressing and sad. I am generally a pretty avid runner and very active and the fact that I can't be "normal" pisses me off.

I'm grumpy and impatient with my first, and my husband. I'm only about half as sick with this one as I was with the first but I also have half the patience to deal with it. During this pregnacny my doctor said that I can actually take Collase and Milk of Magnesia for the constipation...and now I can actually poop which I think is why I'm half as sick as the first time. I think the constipation poisons my body after awhile and my stomach refuses to put anymore down the track so I just puke. So getting things going has been really much better than the first time when I thought I could take nothing. Dumb stupid first doctor! Another thing that helps with my nausea is to always keep a little bit of food in my tummy even if I just puked, and the best thing I can stomach is pre-canned chocolate slim-fast. It's been a life saver for me and if I do puke it doesn't tase so bad and chunky coming back up. But, I'm still miserable. I hate this. My husband stinks to me when I'm pregnant too and it drives me crazy. See how mean I'm feeling!

I honestly don't understand how someone could love it. Everything changes, grows larger, becomes uncomfortable and just plain sucks. Unfortunately, when you mention to someone that you hated being pregnant, you get looks that imply that you're an ogre. Hmmm. Maybe those people who claim to love pregnancy are just saying that because they think they're SUPPOSED to love it.<BR/><BR/>It sucks.
