I feel guilty, anyone else?

oliviaolayo · June 2013

I haven't told anyone this and I actually haven't even said it out loud because it sounds so silly to me. But in the way back part of my mind.. I'm partly sick of being pregnant

and I'm only 23w4d with my beautiful twin girls, I am so blessed and I know this.. But part of me is sick of not being able to wake up and look at my super flat stomach and wear my tight skinny jeans.. Not have to work so hard to put my shoes on or go pee a million times a day.

I am so excited to be a mother and I know pregnancy is amazing and a miracle, but Im already kind of ready for it to be over. Anyone else?

At least we are over the halfway hump right?

Don't feel guilty, I've had days like this too. I know it's supposed to be this wonderful experience that we are blessed to have and don't get me wrong I feel that way.

But then there are days I just want to wear something not stretchy or flowy and have some damn sushi!

Uhh yes..so over it. And I know that my pregnancy has been a rather easy one.i feel blessed and all that but I still hate knowing that all my cute short shorts and crop tops won't be worn this summer..Grrr..but I'm pretty lucky because my husband knows to lie to me and tell me I look good haha

But I do get little joys from being pregnant like the little belly kicks! I just want her out if my belly and in my arms! I think pregnancy should be changed to 6 months!

oh, I totally get you. This week I have been feeling super fat and ugly. So, I am very ready for it to be over right now. I just look in the mirror and my butt has pretty much doubled in the last week. yuck! I love my little girl with my whole heart and would do anything for her. But seriously, I will be so happy when my butt is not growing in front of my very eyes.

Lol my husband tells me the same! I guess it doesn't help seeing all these pics of super fit girls on Instagram all day.. I'm thinking about just deleting my accounts until after pregnancy cause its not healthy for my self conscious!

I am right there with you. This is my third and I have managed each time to drop the weight that I have gained. This time I am eating well and exercising and I'm still a fat cow. I'm so discouraged. The thought of having to drop this weight after the baby is born exhausts me ugh. It's just so hard. Worth it, but hard!

Good for you for dropping the weight that's inspiring! I am really dedicated to trying to get my body back ASAP.. Thinking that will be the only thing to keep me sane with two newborns to take care of ;

I'm not really sick of being pregnant yet, but your post made me feel guilty that I don't have a "super flat stomach" or the ability to wear "tight skinny jeans" even when I'm not pregnant :P

Aww that's not what I intended with my post, it's just frustrating because I used to kill myself working out and eating right and now I barely have enough motivation to go for a long walk. Im glad you're enjoying your pregnancy it sounds like!

I'm right there with you too! DD was born in July so in my head, I'm almost done. I feel like I'm due in July again. I keep reminding myself I'm going to feel and look this way till the FALL!

After it's all over I'm sure I'll miss this time. But for now I have moments where I love it and moments where I'm ready for it to be over. It's a blessing for sure, but it's not easy to grow another human!

Mrs.P0405 · June 2013

I feel the same way. I am not necessarily sick of being pregnant, but I am already sick of the clothes I have. I was pregnant during the summer last time too. I think it is worse because of the summer clothes. I would prefer to dress my growing body in jeans and long-sleeved things rather than sleeveless and bathing suits! I also realize that while I am feeling great right now, I am going to get so much more uncomfortable soon and I'm dreading that part. I was unable to sleep for the last 8 weeks last time. I love the fact that I will be having a baby and realize I am blessed to have this time again, but for me it is 40 looooong weeks.

I feel guilty, but this is my last pregnancy, so I feel like I should be relishing every moment.

Nikdayday · June 2013

I was like that towards the end of being pregnant with my son and with this baby it's been much worse and I honestly can't wait for it to be over. Pregnancy with my son was easy breezy, but this time the baby is soooo low and it's so painful to even sit sometimes. My husband finally felt her kick for the first time the other night and gav me a shocked look and said "wow you weren't kidding she's really down there" so at least I now have his understanding and sympathy of why I rarely want to have sex because it hurts really bad lol. I just keep telling myself that it's all worth it and it will be over before you know it, but it's totally normal to feel the way we're feeling.
