Of course we were all prepared to instantly love our baby more than imaginable and for nausea, but what are some things you weren't prepared for?
Congestion
Restlessness at night
Feeling like your breasts might actually fall off

Re: Things No One Told You About Being Pregnant
How painful kicks to your cervix really are
Constipation
That you'll pee yourself at some point
That nasty remarks about knowing how birth control works
I'm sure there are more I just can't think of any more.
Twin mom wise: the natural comments and double trouble kill me
I really wan't to hit him with a pan on his head. somedays i just wish he woul move out and leave me and my son alone. We get along juuuust fine, but with the big child,dh, it' s just a battlefield. I really don't need the stress. I just need some peace and quiet....
uterus cramps
bloating
I like how amanda said feels like your boobs could fall off lol
The awful gas, some nights I'm worse than the dog.
The loss of appetite
The bloat.
How severe the exhaustion is.
I never even knew that could be a symptom but I burp soooooo much and it can be very uncomfortable and embarrassing when out in public.
Also, getting sick without warning. Morning sickness is one thing, but smelling something and the immediately getting sick?I opened the trash to throw something away and the onion peels from dinner last night gave off a horrid smell and I threw up all over the place. It was aweful.
Also, my sense of smell is crazy right now. I can smell things no one else can/before they smell it and it's contributing greatly to my nausea.
Omg the cramps....I never experienced any of this with my first, his pregnancy was a breeze, but with this one I can't catch a break.
What I didn't expect was having a craving for something, getting up and making it and when you're about to eat it, the thought of putting it in your mouth makes you nauseous. Waste of time, waste of food
Didn't expect the fear, any little thing freaks me out, I'm so worried Bout miscarriages and what not, it drives me nuts. Also my nipples bipolar ways one second they don't hurt the next it feels like someone's stabbing them. The sleeping all day is my favorite, until my bladder awakens me.
The constant worry about the what ifs.
The biggest for me though is definitely the bloat and constipation. Like I've heard people mention bloating, but I was picturing more like period bloat, not I'm pretty sure I'm about to explode bloat.
