Is being pregnant a big deal?

Question

Have any of you been in a relationship or had friends and family dismiss you being pregnant and all the changes you go through physically, emotionally, and mentally as not a big deal?  Have you ever thought that yourself? How do you handle it and how would you handle it if that were the case?

Answer

I don’t think it’s a big deal🤷‍♀️it actually aggravates me to no end when people act super dramatic about being pregnant, as if it’s some sort of handicap. I didn’t expect to be treated differently, or be given a free pass to complain non stop or have others do things for me. I went about my normal life, I ate normal portions, I went to work everyday, and carried on normal things. I didn’t try to get attention because of it and I never expected to be catered to.

Answer

It’s not “a big deal” but it does come with changes in a lifestyle. I don’t need people to cater to me, but sometimes I do need help. And sometimes I need a little more understanding in the ways I feel. But I don’t need everyone’s attention in the room , if that makes sense.

Answer

Omg yes!!! I only have one friend that has a baby and majority of my friends are a ways away from having babies (I’m 29 and so ready ha) but I’ve found that I get the impression that not everyone quite understands when I say I’m too tired to do something or I don’t want to go out, etc. but everyone’s pregnancy is different so some people have all this energy but I have not been one of those people ha
