It just doesn't seem fair!

Before getting pg...I always thought (naively) that during pg you might feel like shit the first tri and then it's all cake walk from there on out.

Now being pg...I find that 1st tri did suck, 2nd tri was much better, and now 3rd tri things start creeping back from 1st tri (uncontrollable gagging in the am, gas pains, etc)

And to top it off (not that I'm at this point yet) but I read on here how ladies just feel like absolute shit right before going into labor.

Who the hell made this up? Shouldn't it be that you should feel your best right before labor since you're going to feel like shit for the next how-many-ever hours during L&D? It just doesn't seem fair!

I just hope that "feeling like shit" really does mean it's "right before labor"

Seriously...I had NO idea what this was going to be like.  Everyone must forget once it's over.

First and second tri were really lousy for me. Someone told me once that the day before you go into labor you feel your 'best' - don't know if thats true or not.

Not fair at all.

First trimester sucked but since then other than the sore back, carpal tunnel, peeing constantly, and not being able to sleep I am really not that uncomfortable.  I actually am one who is not ready for DD to make her appearance I feel like I am not ready enough, don't know what I still have to do but I am okay with her staying put for a while more..

Hmmm, I feel like shit.... God I wish I would go into labor, or atleast get a sign.... BH, mucous plug, diarhea (sp), something.... Nope my little boy is playing like he always does...

3rd tri has been the worst for me by far.  I am definitely ready to have the baby.
