Enjoying pregnancy?

Question

I don't understand how women love BEING pregnant. I am in constant discomfort or pain, my body is changing in so many weird ways I never would have expected and my emotions are all over the place. I hate not feeling like myself. I love that I am pregnant and I can't wait to meet my sweet little alien! 😍😍 I just think it's funny that women say they "miss being pregnant" or they "love the 9 months they are pregnant". Lol I don't relate but I'm glad they enjoy themselves. I can't wait for the last 5 of my nine months to be over with so I can meet and hold and love on my baby

Answer

I think perspective changes when you experience different things... I lost a pregnancy at 23 weeks last July.. I'm grateful to be pregnant again and i am enjoying it.. I missed being pregnant with my first.. And even though this is a new baby it brings back the warm fuzzy feelings i had with my first... This one is a boy too and it has brought me out of a very sad time.. I will openly say i love being pregnant... I make a point not to vent or complain about my symptoms because they are important to me.. Its my body doing what its supposed to.. :)

Answer

I hate the paranoia and worry that comes with it. It wreaks havoc on my nervous system. Lol

Answer

After losing two babies despite the exhaustion and nausea I am loving every second. We are so lucky to be pregnant

Answer

I hated the first trimester and never thought I would say this but now I love be pregnant! I feel better than ever mentally/emotionally. I had been on antidepressants for a couple years but stopped them when I found out I was pregnant and now I feel better than I have in years! Also working out and yoga has helped my body deal with the physical adjustments.

Answer

I'm a person who loves being pregnant and misses it incredibly when it's over.

Answer

I love being pregnant. Sure there are some downsides but just carrying a little life brings me so much joy.

Answer

I'm with you. I've never liked it. This is my third pregnancy and I am ready for June. I'm always uncomfortable miserable the only good part is the end when the babies here.

Answer

I'm enjoying it this time!  It's much easier (so far) than my previous pregnancies.  I'm probably used to everything since this is my 3rd baby.  And I'm trying to just enjoy it because this is MY LAST!!

Answer

So far the only thing I haven't enjoyed is the worry. My boyfriends friend had a miscarriage at 22 weeks just recently and that's about the only thing that I hate about being pregnant is nothing is a guarantee. I'm not showing, never had morning sickness, have kept working out but I do have some round ligament pain every now and then and that kind of sucks sometimes.

Answer

I haven't enjoyed the physical side of pregnancy (nausea, vomiting, bloating, lower back pain, sore/itchy breasts) but my anxiety and insomnia have been practically non existent for the last 19wks. I have been struggling with sleeplessness and panic attacks for seven years, so the reprieve from mental illness and exhaustion is very welcome! 
That being said, I am a little bit scared about how I will cope if they return once our little one arrives :/
