...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.
Re: "I would give anything...
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?

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.
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!)
