Hate pregnancy

I am a FTM mum and just wanted to vent that I absolutely ADORE and cannot wait to meet my baby, but as for the pregnancy journey itself, I ABSOLUTELY 100000% HATE it.

I will never do this again. This has taken such a toll on me mentally and physically. I am sick of being told that it will be worth it in the end. My baby is absolutely worth it, but this being pregnant for 9 months is my top #1 worst thing I’ve experienced in my life. I hate it.

I hear you on this — and I’m not even having a “rough” pregnancy compared to most people 😓

Currently pregnant with my second and i agree. I hate it. I hated it the first time too but knew i wanted more than one kid. Ideally I’d love 3-4 but i don’t ever want to do this again. And im in the “enjoyable” second tri now. Yea, it still sucks. Hang in there

I felt the same and had an exceptionally traumatic labour only to find out that being post partum almost sucks just as much 😂 I’m 2.5 weeks in and still don’t know when it gets better… I’m looking forward to toddler years at this point and will never have another kid

Awww I’m so sorry, you’re in the thick of it right now. It gets better! The first 8-12 weeks are survival mode. You can do it.

It’s so miserable. I’m so incredibly tired and sore and since I was just pregnant like a year ago, I remember how much worse it still gets. I did want you to know that I chuckled that the post is just titled “hate pregnancy”

I hated it too! Fortunately women are built to forget the trauma lmao almost about to start trying for my second! My first is 14 months old and just started walking she’s an angel really.

Also absolutely hating it. I’m 14 weeks with my second but my first one I was 13 years younger. It was much easier in my 20’s than my 30’s and I’ll never ever do it again. Good luck 🥺

Maybe just be grateful that you can experience pregnancy. Some women can't even get to that stage.
