"I would give anything...

...to be in your shoes."

That's my first thought today after my 5 month pregnant teammate (the one who got pg with a rebound 'friend with benefits') complained today in the staff lounge. 

She whined, "I am so annoyed that I can't wear one green shirt every day in March this year!  All of my green shirts don't fit!  Uuuuugh." 

My sentiments exactly.  Uuuuugh.  Vent over.

    I have more than a few pregnant Facebook friends, and every.single.one. of them complains about something or other each day. I just want to say, "be thankful you're sick and tired, it means your baby is growing and thriving, and you're still pregnant".

    I made a conscious decision before even getting pregnant that I would try my hardest never to complain about being pregnant, because there are so many women who don't get the chance. Now that I've been pregnant and had a loss, I feel even stronger about not complaining.

    Sure it sucks to be sick, tired, have a back ache, have to constantly pee, but really, what in life that's worth it isn't a little difficult sometimes?

    I hate it when people complain. I'm sure it's not all wonderful but do they not realize the miracle that pregnancy is? And why doesn't she just go buy a stupid green shirt?

    There are so many worse things that could happen in life then having a little morning sickness.  I don't think pregnant women should NEVER complain, but it doesn't have to be all the time and about every little thing. 

    Every time a pregnant friend complains about her sore back or whatever I just want to scream and tell them how I endured a tremendous amount of physical pain as a miscarried my very first child at home.

    It just comes so easy to some people that they take it for granted. At least when we get our sticky babies we will know to appreciate every minute! I am sorry you have to deal with her!

    I'm sure she is total sweetheart, but is it wrong to say I would want to slap her!?

    I went to the Chiro today (haven't been since I was preggo over 6 weeks ago, but then lost baby 4 weeks ago)...and she said, "oh my gosh...you look fabulous for being almost 14 weeks preggo! I nearly lost it sobbing like a damn baby and at the same time wanted to just punch her for saying that. (And of course, she had no idea!)

    I'd give anything too.  Drives me batty when women aren't grateful for what they have.

    I think it when I'm around those who don't know me well, but to my BFF I said it to her face. I told her I'd give anything to be in her shoes and she looks to me and says "It's okay Jess, it'll be your time soon enough". Seriously? ((Hugs))

    Arg!  The universe can be so cruel sometimes.  I am sorry that you had to hear the whining from your teammate.  It is such a blessing to be pregnant, I hope that you get there soon....your chart looks good by the way.

    sorry to hear about the teammate.. jeez.. some people. I think having gone through this... makes me more sensitive to all the complaining and want to tell them - at least you still have or got your baby.   :P
