Why does no one talk about the truth of pregnancy!

Question

Deffinitely not a walk in the park 😅. 
Anyone else constantly sick & have heartburn 24/7🙃?

Answer

Yes!! Who ever says they enjoy being pregnant I think is mad! Obviously I love the fact I’m pregnant and love feeling movement (when I’m not being kicked to death) and the thought of bringing precious life into the world but jeez it’s hard going. Pregnancy glow! What the hell is that because I’m yet to experience it. I feel rough and sick, heartburn is kicking my butt, I’m an emotional wreck and I feel sorry for my other half, I’d love to cut off my boobs because they are so sore and itchy, my belly is bruised to hell from anti clotting injections, I’d like to be able to move around in bed and not feel like a beached whale and I’d love to be able to have a decent nights sleep and not visit the toilet every hour. I’m exhausted to say the least and I’m glad I’m nearly there! Rant over haha I’m 31+2.

Answer

Hardest thing I have ever done!!! Everyone makes it seem like butterflies and rainbows 🙃 I don’t have a glow, and I am borderline narcoleptic these days bc of pure exhaustion. I eat everything in sight and had the worst morning sickness for the first 17 weeks. I get up to pee too many times to count and my back feels like it’s going to break. I’m only 27 weeks! I’m not even sure how my body will take 13 more weeks of her growing. I’m soooo grateful for her, but damn this shit is no walk in the park.

Answer

Yessss you are not alone! This is my second pregnancy and it's really kicking my ass. Definitely more sick and tired than the first time around 😵 
Its OK to hate pregnancy but still love our babies! It makes the delivery even more special bc you get your f*ucking abdomen back to yourself and you finally get to meet your sweet perfect newborn 🥰 lol

Answer

I hate pregnancy.. right now its 1:45pm and my moody ass has decided I need a nap because I just ate 3 bites of a sandwich and got heartburn.. I coughed and pulled my back and im sick of needing to Ice my pubic bone 😢
11 more weeks.. just 11 more weeks

Answer

I am 29 weeks pregnant. I have had severe rib pain, severe lower abdominal pain, and I have had bad tailbone pain to where I can't sit right and then my hips are constantly popping out of place. I have to move my position all the time cuz I'm constantly in pain and one area or another. I can barely move by myself without it hurting. it's all just completely awful and uncomfortable for me. and I'm ready for her to be here.

Answer

I did with my first pregnancy. I lived on pepcid and avoided trigger foods. This time I can't get enough spicy and no heartburn.
I am ready to not be kicked in uncomfortable places all day long.

Answer

Any ladies struggling with heart burn i strongly recommend taking Pepcid. My doctor prescribed it so it’s safe you can get from your doctor or right at the store. It works all day long and you can still enjoy the food you want.

Answer

I was actually enjoying it until I developed pregnancy carpel tunnel and hemorrhoids.
Now I am very ready for it to be over, just ready for my boy to be here. 
Trying to be thankful for the experience of having him in my body, but sometimes it’s hard!

Answer

Half cup cold milk with 1/4th water in it is the best remedy I found because i was also suffering from severe heartburn

Answer

Certainly different for everyone! I’ve found that eating chia seeds in my oatmeal every morning has significantly helped with heartburn. Hang in there!
