coltonsmom`s poll Show results | Hide results


Pregnancy-poll poll Do you honestly enjoy being pregnant? I hear women say they love being pregnant. I have to wonder if they have heartburn and hemeroids and swollen ankles. hahaha - How do you feel about being pregnant?
(Pregnancy poll by coltonsmom, 96 days ago)
I LOVE being pregnant, every aspect of it.
I hate being pregnant, feeling the baby move is nice but everything else blows.
Hate everything about it.
It's a love hate thing. See comments. :)

I loved it in the beginning, but `grew` to hate it. Haha. I like having him here better.

I absolutely LOVED being pregnant with my first! Other than a bit of heartburn near the end, and some water retention, my pregnancy was almost perfect! This time around, I still can`t complain too much, but it`s definitely been harder than the first. I still never had any morning sickness... just super sense of smell, and sensitive gag reflex. In the last month though I`ve been diagnosed with pretty severe gallstones (not fun!). I have been having very frequent attacks (worse than labour!), and there`s not much they can do until after baby comes. I`m now on a very restricted diet (I can`t tell you had badly I want chocolate right now), and have a prescription for some pretty heavy-duty painkillers for when an attack comes on. All of this drama has made this pregnancy far less enjoyable!!

Its a love hate thing. I love my little girl, and feeling her movements. I just hate not being able to sleep comfortable at night. I hate the aches and pains, and pressure. It is my first pregnancy so maybe its just that! Im 33 weeks with a girl.

Pregnancy I would say hates me, lol. but IT IS ALL WORTH IT!!!! I have hard pregnancies and get post partum depression...but I will do it again, for that all too will pass into the wonderful pasture of parenthood=). I keep saying that this whole journey is a waiting game...waiting to ovulate, waiting to test, waiting for AF to show up and be gone and do it all again, then it`s waiting for to get past those first three months, then it`s waiting to get to the 7th month, then it`s waiting to give birth, then (for me), it`s wiating for the depression to go away...then ahhh! Only to start again, lol!!! The joys of making a family...BUT, it`s all worth it!!!

i love feeling baby move and i love how full my boobs are again since they flopped after my first, but other than that I HATE IT! its a love hate thing i guess

I LOVE being pregnant. I would so have this baby any day and be huge again by the next lol. I had maybe a couple periods of morning sickness and some heartburn but it never lasted too long. I am due any day and I sleep just like I did before I got pregnant, I don`t have to stuff myself with pillows before I go to bed lol. The only thing I don`t like is the stretch marks but they are shiny and not really noticeable unless you look real close and the big belly always being in the way but it is so amazing feeling the little one moving around so everything is so worth it!

I love it. Never had Swollen ankles, hemeroids, morning sickness. I do get Heartburn the last few months but only a couple of times. the only thing I really hate is not being able to bend down the last month.!! That a chore w/ 2 other little ones running around and dropping stuff!!

MelissaJoanne (96.1 days ago)
I do honestly love it. I don`t love `every aspect`, like heartburn, and that not all of my pretty shoes fit now. But, I love it despite the negatives. And it`s probably a little different for me, since I have a chronic intestinal disease, and being pregnant has put it into remission. So, I actually feel much better overall than I did pre-pregnant. Pregnancy is so overwhelmingly feminine, it makes me feel gorgeous.

with my first I hated everything about it... so after she was born I really MISSED IT! LOL... so this time I`m taking the time to enjoy it cause I don`t know if I want anymore kids haha! :)

gr8scottswife (96.2 days ago)
The best thing about pregnancy is the end result, but getting there stinks! No pain. No gain. I guess. I do not enjoy much at all about being pregnant except knowing that I`m having a child and that having this belly is like having an award strung around my neck. Otherwise, I could do without it and am seriously considering not having another child because of all the symptoms that go along with it.

mesi (96.2 days ago)
The movements were great when I was awake, I wasn`t too keen on the `wake up from deep sleep 3am kicks` (active baby). I enjoyed month 5, 6 and 7 everything else sucked! Sorry.

CassandraLee (96.2 days ago)
I have super easy pregnancies. I dont mind it at all. Hemhorroids and constipation are the worst symptoms I have right now. I sleep well, dont get naseous, dont swell until the very end, dont have headaches, or backaches. Mine are easy.

BabyGonzales (96.2 days ago)
I chose the same thing. The only thing I enjoy is feeling him move.. all the acid reflux, nausea, and just having a hard time walking sux.

coltonsmom (96.2 days ago)
btw - my choice is `I hate being pregnant, feeling the baby move is nice but everything else blows.`
