FTM having a meltdown

I struggled with infertility for 3 years - it was 3 years of constant crying and heartache. We finally did <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> and it worked first round - complete miracle and we were over the moon. But I feel like because I struggled to get pregnant people assume I’m having the best time now I’m pregnant or that I should be constantly grateful.

Let me tell you - being pregnant has not been easy!!!! I thought I would have loads of energy and glow, I would go to Pilates & just love the journey. Instead my clothes stopped fitting at week 10, my boobs are huge and achy, I have hormone spots all over my face like a teenager, sex is so uncomfortable I’m physically unable to do it right now! I’m exhausted all the time and suffering from pregnancy migraines and I suddenly hate all my favourite foods 🙈! Today I have been so achy in my lower abdomen and sides and also sown my legs like growing pains.

I am so so grateful to be in this position and I wouldn’t change it for the world but just because I struggled to get pregnant doesn’t mean I’m not allowed to have a melt down moment 😫😫😫😫
