Anyone happy to be pregnant?

I'm enjoying my pregnancy. Smile DH and I have come a long way before conceiving and the aches and pains I experience on a daily basis are so worth it.  Lately, I've read many posts about ladies being sick of pregnancy.  I'm the opposite.  Anyone happy to be pregnant too?

    I think it depends on how your pregnancy has gone.  If all you have had is a few "aches and pains" then I can see why you are enjoying it.

    But to answer your question, I am really happy to be pregnant, but I will be even happier when its ove

    I agree totally. We tried for several years and had a miscarriage. I have pains, difficulty breathing, I got sick and am still getting over it 3 weeks later. I'm scared that I'm only going to get bigger over the next seven weeks. But I'm so happy, it's al

    I agree. I don't think people realize how lucky they are.  :) I'm happy everyday, esp when LO is active.

    I enjoy pregnancy (hence being a surrogate).  My pg with DS1 was the easiest pg EVER (most pg women would hate me for the easy pg I had, no aches and pains).  My twin pg was quite a bit harder starting around 26/28 weeks.  This time around

    I really enjoy feeling my little girl move, even when it hurts I still love it. I know I am growing a happy healthy baby. The only thing I don't like is heart burn, I have had it everyday. I just hope it means she will have lots of hair!!

    As PP's said, happy to be pregnant? Yes, absolutely. So extremely grateful to be able to do this, especially after having experienced the heartbreak of a m/c, and so excited for the end result.

    That said, do I enjoy pregnancy? No.

    Other than some aches and pains while sleeping being pregnant has been a breeze knock on wood. My fingers are crossed that labor and delivery is just as easy. My heart goes out to the mommas that have had a less than favorable pregnancy.
