It's a miracle! But it kinda sucks.

    I voted aches and pains. A close second is the need to eat all the time but not wanting to.

    That was a hard choice. I chose the pee one but it was not far ahead of mystery ailments and GD :(

    I voted aches and pains, but definitely also the exhaustion! I feel the need to sleep at least 12 hrs a day. And I hate being out of breath all the time, I swear I feel like a totally huge totally out of shape person huffing and puffing all the time! I was fine with pregnancy the first 2 trimesters, but now that I'm in the 3rd tri it seems like everything hurts, or is too much to handle. :/

    Little problems add up, especially my lower back and tailbone pain and poor sleep, but for the most part I can't complain. My contacts have become super uncomfortable recently and I'm happier wearing my glasses. Should return to normal after birth, but the urge to rip my contact lense out of my eye every minute I wear it (one eye is much worse) defeats the purpose of wearing them!

    SS: being pregnant in general. Its a miracle and lots of people can't but honestly... if it werent for the end result, I don't think anyone truly loves pregnancy. Its not a exactly a walk in the park.

    Almost all of the above, but especially being so exhausted. I want to do all the normal things I can do when not pregnant and darn it, I just can't.

    I would say the constant worry about baby being ok. I feel like it's constantly in the back of my mind that I hurt her when I bumped something, or every little thing that happens (like being itchy or slowed movement) google makes me think worst case scenario. I am tired of being paranoid and worried... I can't wait for her to be an outside baby (when shes ready of course) so I can see her and feel her breathing when I get worried

    oh and DEFINITELY the acid reflux.

    I wish this got better after the birth...at every stage there's even more to worry about!!! Maybe I'll stop worrying when he's 40, but probably not. ;)

    Seriously all everyone says is "enjoy your sleep while you are pregnant." Seriously I have not had a good night's sleep in weeks. To me that is the most evil symptom unless it is just some twisted way of preparing you for tending to a baby at night.

    I actually felt like I got MORE sleep once DS arrived. Yes, he nursed every 2 hours for 30+ minutes, so my sleep WAS disrupted, but he also slept ALL THE TIME otherwise, so I did too!
