Some women are lucky enough to have great experiences during pregnancy! Some women say they have never felt better! I am definitely NOT one of those women! I am just a few weeks away from my due date and I can’t wait to be done with this pregnancy stuff and on to motherhood!
1. Back Pain – I love to hear the hubby complain about back pain. Try being 8 months pregnant with scoliosis!
2. Swollen Feet – Enough Said…
3. Sex – Unfortunately pregnancy gives you an amazing sex drive but makes it impossible for you to accomplish those urges!
4. Bathroom Breaks – I can’t even roll over during the night without getting up to pee. I think I’m up to 3-4 trips a night right now!
5. Being Fat – I can barely climb the stairs without being out of breath! And let me just say being fat during pregnancy isn’t bad, it’s the ‘after baby fat’ that’s the worst!
6. The Pregnancy Brain – If you’ve ever been pregnant, you know what I mean! It’s like living in a cloud. It is difficult to remember anything!
7. My Attitude – I have ZERO patients while pregnant! I want a donut and I want it NOW!! 🙂
I found that pregnancy brain went away less and less with every pregnancy. I’m one baby away from having to put my name and address in my underwear!! lol
I loved being pregnant, but I had NO sex drive. I didn’t want my husband to touch me much less anything else!
I can not wait to be done being pregnant. Our 3rd child will be born in June and I will have had 3 in under 3 years. Just last night I asked my husband what had happened to me. Someday I really want my body back!
Lest we forget: underwear rolling down, and can’t turn over in the night
The worst part for me all the way was having so, so much morning/afternoon/evening sickness. I didn’t mind the fat part, or the ankles, but feeling nauseous all the time makes me a grumpy girl. My poor husband :p.
