Why must people compare pregnancies.
I'm on day five of my current headache. I understand it's something I have to deal with but when you ask me why I took my ten minute break resting my head on my hands I will simply tell you I have a headache. Yes I know it's the fifth day in a row. It's unpleasant but livable. But when I hear people say stuff like "well you're having a rough pregnancy aren't you" or "you're pregnancy isn't that bad at all" I want to throttle people. I know they are opposite statements but it's like people want to TELL you how you compare. This pregnancy is an experience only I will experience and everyone else's is their own experience as well. I am very grateful that I am not going through what puking patty is going through but I also can't identify with glowing Glinda. I'm very happy for all three of us to be bringing babies into this world. I'm most excited to meet mine. So when I post a funny pregnancy meme with Will Ferrel saying "the best way to spread pregnancy cheer is vomiting loud for all to hear" I am simply finding humor in my situation. When I post that I just had a great day swimming with my little sisters, I am celebrating something outside of pregnancy(which is possible!) unless you want to tell me how your daughter in law just gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and she is ecstatic please don't explain how much worse off she had it than me. This is not meant toward any other pregnant women, simply the ones who are not pregnant and/or haven't been for a long while or won't ever be. Like my friends husband commenting on how much more hormonal I am than his pregnant wife.
Thank you for understanding my rant,
