MalVough · August 2014

I'm miserable at 9 weeks, 5 days.

My SIL is one week behind me... she has no symptoms. None. Nada. Zilch.

Must be friggin nice!

kellbell1982 · August 2014

Ummm, just a word of advice, there are several women here who like myself are pregnant after a loss and worse there are women who have just lost babies so it's more than a little insensitive to name your post "being pregnant sucks" because I'm sure like myself they'd do anything to be pregnant again. Andplusalso what does your BFF have to do with anything you sound like you're 12 really immature

chajak · August 2014

There are weekly symptom boards you can complain on btw.

cassy0407 · August 2014

No two pregnancies are the same, so it doesn't benefit you to compare yourself to others. You need to be happy with the miracle that is pregnancy even if you are not feeling well right now. In a few months, when you see that precious baby of yours, you will likely feel silly about this "being pregnant sucks" rant.

marissalucia · August 2014

I especially agree with @mamachancey‌ this post is pretty insensitive, it hurt just reading "being pregnant sucks" because I wake up everyday hoping I still am. Yes I get frustrated with the symptoms and some of the SYMPTOMS SUCK but not the pregnancy itself. Please have a little more consideration next time.

chaysefaith · August 2014

I'd rather be miserable every day (and I am) and be pregnant than not be pregnant. And there are many women on this board who wish they could have the very thing you are bitching about.

Nice post for us to get to know you. Cool it on the typing and please don't say "whyyyy meeeee" again. You're not the only one suffering and many women here are going through MUCH worse.

EDWHIP · August 2014

While I agree the naming of your post is insensitive, I totally feel you, sister. This mama lost 15 lbs from week 7-now (almost 14 weeks). I puked all day every day and couldn't keep down any vitamins or food…OR water! It's the most pathetic feeling in the world when you can't enter your own house without passing out from phantom smells. I walk into work and just a slight breeze that touches my arm makes me gag. IT SUCKS! What sucks more is that my two newly friends with no morning sickness hardly believe me. How can 2 pregnancies be that different?

What I will say is that it is WORTH it. I know you may not feel it now, but this will all be but a faded memory. I had the same symptoms with DD1 and the joys of motherhood have blown away any negative feelings I had during pregnancy.

Hang in there and get some help from the symptoms board! Good luck!

alexandria22489 · August 2014

Really? Being pregnant sucks? Remember when you're nauseated and puking your face off (which is a normal symptom,believe it or not. I know, you're shocked) there are people that have been struggling for years to be in your position, have recently had a loss (including several of the amazing women on this board), or simply aren't in the position to have a child right now that would LOVE to be pregnant. "It's so unfair"? Get over yourself. If you want to complain about how unlucky you are to be pregnant, you've come to the wrong place.

wendyld · August 2014

I would trade you in a heartbeat, so I should probably just stay out of this thread.

MissyCee · August 2014

Would you rather not be pregnant? As others have said, there are wonderful ladies here who experienced a loss and would do anything to still be pregnant. Quite frankly I'm really pissed off about your choice of words and think you should take your bitching elsewhere.

Sorry, OP, but while I am throwing up in between playing and caring for my 4.5 year old, I am thanking my lucky fucking stars to have the opportunity to have another child.

You are having a baby. So, you're going to feel shitty for a few weeks. You get a fucking CHILD out of your "suffering".

Perhaps some perspective will do you some good because pretty soon, it's not going to be all about you anymore.

alexandria22489 · August 2014

meladoriestar I'm sending good thoughts your way!

snickersforeveryone · August 2014

Do you think before you speak?

We have been losing AMAZING women who would do anything to be in your shoes. Their losses are fresh and incredibly painful. We have women who have suffered losses in the past and who pray that this will be their chance to bring their baby home.

I understand that symptoms like yours are hard to deal with, but this was very poorly worded and insensitive. Call your doctor. Complain in the symptom thread. But for all that is good and holy, think before you speak.

FrecklesInside · August 2014

Ditto what everyone has said about the insensitive nature of this post. Hugs to @wendyld and @estamos_tomamos who had to read this ridiculous post.

And WOW the whining. You do sound 12.

I mean, come on. I get that some pregnancy symptoms suck, and you have a right to bitch about that, but to sound this ridiculous and whiny? To say "Whyyyyyy me??!?" ...No. Just stop it.

crunchymamaof2 · August 2014

Why you? Because you had fucking unprotected sex (I'm assuming) or made the conscience decision to have a child. I know not everyone wants to be pregnant but this certainly is NOT the place to be bitching about it. I pray to god you won't have to eat your words one day.

meowkitten · August 2014

Holy crap I can't even. I am so thankful every single day that I am pregnant, sickness or miserable or not. You are getting a CHILD. I am so heartbroken for every amazing woman we have had here that has had a loss and had to read this thread.

sjep922 · August 2014

PP have pretty much summed it up. How sad to actually hear someone saying these things.

You should be thankful every day that you are pregnant. Many women would love to feel the sickness you're feeling. Think before you speak.

kaylaalexxander · August 2014

Being pregnant doesn't suck. You suck.

bdazzld · August 2014

Your symptoms might suck but being pregnant is a blessing and a miracle. Ask your doctor for new meds and keep your whining a little more sensitive to others.

janda426 · August 2014

This title pisses me off for our loss moms. I'm so sorry you guys have to read this. People can be really fucking stupid and insensitive sometimes.

taesmith15 · August 2014

Wow you guys are hard core... Cut the lady some slack. Everyone makes mistakes. I highly doubt she meant that she doesn't want to be pregnant, but if it's her first, because this is my first, it can feel like your world is ending. I've been sick just about every day, and I too have said the phrase pregnancy sucks, but that's right after I get done gagging in the bathroom or pooping my brains out or passing out from exhaustion. Even though she may not read this, and it may be insensitive to some that have lost a baby, we all have to be adults and try to give her helpful replies, not bully her because of a comment she wrote when she felt she couldn't take the ms anymore. I know all of you have been there whether you write a post about it or not, and it's not fair to judge someone so harshly because of a post like this. Some of the things she wrote can be looked at as offensive... But i think she was clearly not 100% when she wrote it, that's all I'm saying. There may be a better way to tell her she was being insensitive is all. @snickersforeveryone‌ @MissyCee‌ @estamos_tomamos‌ @mamachancey‌

No. Just no. I don't even know who the hell you are so until you've cried with us and our loss moms just STFU.

I've never thought pregnancy sucks. Being nauseous sucks, constipation to the point of sweat and tears sucks, this baby inside me? No. Nothing about that sucks. Why don't you go back into hiding and don't dare fucking call us bullies for calling someone out for writing something so incredibly insensitive.

Jesus fucking Christ she didn't just call out a loss mom.

I'm about to have to step this one out. If you dont fucking apologize like RIGHT NOW for calling out estamos.....

taesmith15 · August 2014

Hey, I tried. I can't change how anyone feels. I'm sorry. I pray for all of those who have lost a child while carrying one. Children are a blessing and I love carrying mine. However, it's my opinion and no I have not lost a child, but I have lost a brother while my mother was pregnant with twins, so loss is something I know a little something about. I am not here to judge. This is supposed to be a happy place to talk about our growing wombs and, yes sometimes morning sickness. I'm sorry if the post or my post upset anybody, but everyone's opinion is a bit different and I can't change mine because no one on this post agrees with me

....did you just tag a woman that lost her baby recently to shame her for being 'insensitive'?

Like, did you really just do that? Go the fuck away. I've never done a post it note for someone, but you just fucking got one.

Goddamn, are you being intentionally obtuse? Some of our own have experienced losses and even more have had some serious scares. So, no this isn't just a happy, blow glitter and rainbows up your ass place. With an occasion aside about morning sickness. JFC.

And I'm very sorry about your brother, but unless you've experienced a pregnancy loss, you really need to STFU and NOT call out one of our moms who just suffered a loss.

You CAN change your opinion, particularly when people have told you how hurtful your opinion is. You are choosing not to.

I've known other people who suffered losses (including my mom when I was younger) and I can promise you without a doubt that you don't know what it's like to find out your own baby is dead, you don't know what it's like to have to figure out the best way to get that dead baby out of you, and you don't know what it's like to see that baby slipping away from you one bathroom visit at a time for weeks just because you know someone who had a loss. I honestly hope you never know, but have a tiny bit of compassion for people who want this more than anything and can't have it. Why don't you cut THEM some slack.

Why her, indeed.

snickersforeveryone · August 2014

No. Puking to the point of rupturing blood vessels, ending up admitted to the hospital multiple times for HG, and being forced to quit my job didn't make me feel like my world was ending.

Losing my baby made me feel like my world was ending. And calling out people who are actively going through that hell is a pretty fucking shitty thing to do.

I never say this, but you can GTFO.

No. Just fucking no. Where did you read that this is to be your "happy place"?!

You just called out a woman that lost her child, and her friends that have been here to support her, and you want to call them insensitive?! The person that posted this thread is insensitive, as are you. So sick of this "first time mom" crap and how they should be excused from all asshole-ish behavior. I'm also a first time mom, do you see me starting ridiculous threads? No. and you will not.

If you didn't realize those were symptoms of being pregnant then that's your own fault. You want to give up now? You're going to be really disappointed when you realize how painful giving birth can be.

1) Yes, people do make mistakes. But if I made a mistake as insensitive as this one, I sure as fuck would apologize for being so thoughtless and hurtful to so many people on this board. Oh and I would also actually return to the special snowflake thread I posted to try and commiserate with other moms, since it just needed it's own thread.

2) Being a FTM is not an excuse for being insensitive.

3) We do not HAVE to do anything. And she was given helpful replies--> Don't post this kind of shit. If she wants practical advice regarding her ms, she should talk to her doctor. Or look at/post in the symptoms thread where these kind of things are discussed daily.

4) Please learn the definition of bullying and stop throwing it around so lightly.

Oh and way to go calling out loss moms for telling OP her post is hurtful.

Who said this is supposed to be a "happy place," you? This is my happy place. Until insensitive posters come in here complaining about being pregnant and then other insensitive posters try to tell the board how to respond. I get plenty of happiness and support here and yes, even advice on how to handle morning sickness. It's easier when you don't trample everyone's feeling first.
