I was so excited when I found out I was pregnant but now I am so completely over it. I have been having such a miserable pregnancy with all day sickness, bed rest because of my MS,constipation,diarrhea,spitting all the time, tailbone pain, back pain from my crooked spine, and pain from my MS that all i can do is call for November so i can be done with being pregnant. I have alot of respect for you ladies who has done this more than once because honestly i can't picture myself doing this again. Am i the only one that feels this way

  • No you are not alone and at times especially when feeling sick and hungry I've felt the same. I think the effects of pregnancy can run you down mentally. I hope you feel better soon. I'm 16 weeks and just about feeling ok for now.
  • I'm fourteen weeks and hoping to feel better too thank you because i feel so alone my fiance don't understand and is constantly telling me to get over it
  • Things will get better it just doesn't quite feel like it at the moment for you but it will. I just want to assure you that you are not alone. I have some days now where I feel like I should be feeling more excited. Don't get me wrong I am very happy that I am having a baby as it was a planned pregnancy. But it isn't the type of personality I have. We are all different as people and we all feel things in our own way and time so don't feel that you have to "feel" a certain way. As for your Fiance he could be more supportive however he isn't in your shoes. Maybe try explaining to him how dismissing your feelings makes you feel.

    I felt the exact way you do my entire first pregnancy, as I deal with a chronic illness as well. It is incredibly hard to live without your medication and deal with the pain all on your own. Not to mention I threw up the entire 9 months! Ugh, I so feel your pain; I was sick every minute of every day and just hated the process of being pregnant. I swore I would never do it again the process was so terrible! But then... My baby came and it was the most miraculous thing that I could ever imagine. My love for this child was immediate and I never thought of all the horrible times I had during pregnancy again. When my husband and I were discussing getting pregnant again- he was quick to remind me how miserable l was and how I said "il never do this again." I remember saying and stick to it now after being in an extremely high risk pregnancy; the end result is so worth the long process! When you meet your newborn baby that y'all created I guarantee you will have the same reaction I did- can we have another already??!! (Sorry for the novel; just trying to make you understand your so not alone out there)
  • Some days I feel the same! Being sick is completely draining which is where I think a lot of the negativity comes from. I'm praying that as the weeks go on we'll all feel that sense of relief and can possibly start to feel that super happy and excited feeling we all know we have deeeeep down inside
  • Totally was in your boat weeks 6-15. I started feeling better week 15 and now I'm 17 and haven't been nauseous. However, I'm still not eating meat or much else than carbs bc then I feel like crap. I also am still pretty tired so don't see that changing. Less exhausted as before bc I can actually clean and do some things but still need a nap on weekends. It should get better.. Hopefully. However I like you cannot wait for the baby to be here. I think some people like being preggo (normally ones who aren't sick) and ones who don't.. I unfortunately fall in the latter. I still don't love the idea of going through it again. We may adopt a second as it's always something my hubby has wanted to do and I say why not.

    It's hard, especially in the summer. I tend to get bloated to hell and back. I can't imagine throwing MS into the mix, but I can say, when you hear your LO cry for the first time, see their face for the first time, hold him/her for the first time, you'll forget the misery (temporarily) and just be in love.

    It's so worth it. All of it.

  • I'm on baby number 3 now and each pregnancy has been very different. I told my husband that if this was our first baby, we wouldn't have another. So, there is hope that it would be the opposite for you. Maybe baby number 2 or 3 will be a lot easier!!
  • Omg thank you everyone i thought something was wrong with me i mean I'm excited for my baby i really am but it's this whole being pregnant thing I'm over
  • You don't have to like the process to love the end result. Totally normal.
  • I'm so over being pregnant in 13w4d and can't wait to get it over with I'm excited for the baby but will never go through this again!
  • I feel the same. Some days I'm ok but most I'm depressed :(( soooooo over it

    I'm doing better now, but definitely a few weeks ago when I was puking my guts out and miserable all day every day, I kept telling DH that I was sick of being pregnant and didn't want to do it anymore.
    I definitely feel a lot better now, but I can get pretty uncomfortable. They say the second trimester is the fun one, so hopefully I can continue to feel better.
  • I'm totally feeling the same way and I feel soooo guilty about it! We struggled with infertility (only for a year but it's still painful) and finally ended up getting pregnant with IUI. During our struggle, I was like "I will cherish every moment of pregnancy". It's so hard. I am 13 wks 5 days. I have had constipation that led to hemmorhoids since before I got pregnant (thanks clomid) and pregnancy has made it 100x worse, nausea until about 2 weeks ago, and as soon as the nausea was gone, headaches... Like everyday. I hope the second trimester is way better than the first has been!! Hang in there mamas!! We will have cute babies at the end of this!
  • There's so much expectation that people cherish being pregnant, but it can be agony for some. Hang in there and don't feel guilty! It will all be worth it in the end when you get to hold your LO!
