Pregnant and hating it
Controversial I know - and I'm not trying to be but its true...
When I first got pregnant I was over the moon and looking forward to the magical glow and beautiful baby at the end of it.
17 weeks in and I'm incredibly low. I've been sick pretty much since week 8, on-going nausea, some days sickness and other days just relentless nausea. Headaches, migraines and indigestion have all made regular appearances.
If you weren't getting a baby at the end of this and you were sick for so many weeks then you would feel incredibly low - but because you get a baby at the end you are supposed to put a smile on and be over thre moon.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not being ungrateful, a baby is a blessing. I'm just being honest and real.
My midwife says it's all normal, I am just suffering longer than usual with morning sickness, and some women have it all their pregnancy. I hope it gets better.
