So I have this pregnant friend

We're both 14 weeks. She's a very dear friend and I love her but she's so annoying me with this pregnancy. She has had zero symptoms. I mean zero. She said she's had no MS, she hasn't been tired, no cravings, no aversions, no gas, no cramping, she hasn't been peeing every 5 minutes, no sore boobs, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is different for her except her little bump.

I'm thinking she's either playing down her symptoms to look like super woman or she's a rare breed. Either way it annoys the sh!t out of me and I feel bad about it.

I'm glad we're going through this together but I thought I'd have someone to commiserate with but I'm getting nothing from her. I don't even really talk about my pregnancy with her because I feel like lame duck while she's sitting there all perfect. 

Are any of you having a pregnancy like my friend or met people similar?

  • I had a friend who bounced right back after we had our babies a week apart. I'm talking doing yard work three days postpartum and in a bikini two months later. Love her, but deep down hate her too. Haha!

  • my symptoms are pretty easy (knock on wood).

    I get tired easily, and I pee every few hours but that's about it. I had mild nausea and headaches in the beginning but I feel normal every day - which can make you nervous too.

  • With DS, my nausea was pretty minimal and I didn't feel comfortable discussing the pooping situation with anyone besides DH, so I didn't vent to my friends very much.  That's just my personality in general, though.  I feel like the more I com

  • I think that's kind of lame that you are holding something like that against a good friend. It's not like anyone has a choice in the matter.

  • No symptoms here except for the extreme bout of RLP at 9 weeks and the swollen belly.  I also told myself before getting pregnant that I wouldn't get morning sickness and I wouldn't complain about my symptoms to anyone except my mom and husband. &nbs

  • Thats so amazing so many of you have had symptom free or nearly symptom free pregnancies! You lucky ducks!

    I'm excited to see how things change for my friend and I as we progress. Can't say her lack of symptoms don't have me drive me bananas righ

  • With Addie, I was just like your friend.  I did have a little nausea for a couple weeks but that was it.  My pregnancy was super easy and I never had any troubles (waddling at the end, hard time breathing, etc).  I wouldn't be too jealou

  • I'm still not "out" to practically anyone, but I do have a pregnant friend that I look forward to coming "out" to so we could do it together. But she did tell me that she only got fatigue in the first tri and no m/s. Granted, I'm basically done with m/

  • This pretty nice pregnancy. Just hungry and a lil acne. Been working out and working 5 jobs lol! Almost 16 weeks. My friends and family keep asking and seem annoyed with my answers. All in good fun though and counting my blessings!
  • I agree with the others - every pregnancy is different. My sister had not one single symptom her entire pregnancy. I have had very few; lots of peeing, sore breasts and exhaustion.
