Is your pregnancy going the way you expected ?

Question

Before I was pregnant I imagined pregnancy as ALWAYS feeling sick, throwing up and gaining a bunch of weight . So far it's just a bunch of constipation & food not tasting good anymore . I've barely had any morning sickness (fingers crossed) . Ive lost a few pounds. I've only been able to eat fruits, veggies & tofu . Along with other proteins and grains . Meat just seems so nasty.. The smell of meat grosses me out . Just thinking about meat makes me nauseous . So what were/are some of your experiences? Have you had any morning sickness ? Any food adversions ? Cravings ?

Answer

I havent got sick yet, i pretty much hate every food but cereal and i have gained so much weight but eat so little, its killing me

Answer

It's going well. It's amazing how much my body has changed like the size of my nipples, boobs, obviously stomach and stretch marks, and swelling in face hands and all that. Everything is worth going through to have a healthy babe though.

Answer

I've lost 10 pounds, have yet to throw up *fingers crossed*, and I have a small appetite. I was really expecting to be a fat ass and throw up all the time..but thank god it's going okay..can't complain!

Answer

No. I had two previous very healthy big babies with no problems at all. This pregnancy is with my current so ive been with and threw the whole pregnancy they have told us it wasmt vibe at first because my hcg levels were so high. Then to telling us it was a molar pregnancy without an ultrasound.. To then a twin molar pregnancy.. To then everyrhibgs fine and me being sick and in pain constantly. To then getting a abnormal quad screen. Being told baby might have spins bifida but then not..to then finally being diagnosed with gastroschisis. (In grateful it wasmt any of the other things) but then we've been struggling the pregnancy for transportation due to moving so Hugh risk appointments weekly 45 min away have been a struggle and now that we are moving we will have a few week span waiting for insurance to kick in so we can start being seen again during that time I can go into labor because of the gastroschisis and the bowels can get bigger. So its been a constant stress and I do not want to be pregnant again for a while after this. Nothing like it was before with my other two more anxiety and stress

Answer

My last pregnancy that ended in mc I wasn't sick at all. Barley cramped. Only slight headaches. Now with this one, I've been sick for three weeks straight. And it's getting worse from there. I have headaches that get so bad all I want to do is sleep. When I was a kid I always thought the morning sickness and nausea was going to feel different than normal people nausea and throwing up (the things we think as a kid) but nope absolutely miserable and I'm only 7w 5d. Every pregnancy is different. I'd doesn't matter if you've had three similar ones it can always be different.

Answer

I had the same Idea as you and I haven't had any morning sickness, no crazy hormones or outbursts, no major food cravings, and overall it just all seems easier than what everyone made it out to be. I'm almost 29 weeks. Of course I know every pregnancy is different but I'm glad my first one isn't horrible considering I'm dealing with it on my own(husband is deployed) so I'm not struggling like everyone was so sure I would be.
