Not all magic

Emma

I love being pregnant. Knowing that I am growing my child inside me and feeling him kick and move fills my heart like nothing else. I also relize how lucky I am to be able to carry my own child as I know there are so many other who cant or who suffer from miscarriages.

But at the same time I don't really like being pregnant. I've been extremely tired since the beginning, my noise has been stuffed up almost the whole pregnancy, I'm moody and emotional, and my back hurts so much.

It seems like every women I know though just wants to talk about how magical there whole pregnancy was some even going on about how they would be pregnant all the time if they could have found some way to afford all the kids. If I even try mentioning feeling like crap everyone brushes it off and says oh well pregnancy is wonderful.

I really just needed to vent my frustration that it seems like its expected to pretend that every moment of pregnancy is magical and just talk about it also being ruff even if it is a routine pregnancy. That's just my vent for the day.
