I fucking hate pregnancy and the only thing that sucks more than pregnancy is people not getting that hating pregnancy doesn’t mean hating my unborn child/not wanting my baby 😭

Currently 26 weeks with my second and just so bloody over it 🙃🥲 The pelvic pain; CONSTANT nausea; the extreme fatigue; the hips aching; the fucking insane amount of discharge (WHY DOES NO ONE TELL YOU THIS??); the heartburn; the emotions; the itchy nipples; the loss of appetite; the kicking on the bladder/cervix…the everything. I really hate pregnancy. Thought round 2 would be different but I hate it just as much as my first. I wish we had space to talk about how shit pregnancy can be and I’m so bloody sick of people expecting me to love it 😂 Anyone else dislike pregnancy as much as me? 😂

😂 I love your post, it’s so raw!! I feel you mama 💓

Totally felt the same way, it felt like everyone expected you to be glowing and smiling all the time but it's so HARD. I absolutely hated being pregnant and already dreading round 2, even though it'll be a while for that exact reason. I hope the last bit isn't too bad for you!!! 💞

Pregnancy has put me in the worst place mentally that iv ever been in my entire life. I wanted.to miscarry so much for those first few months. And this baby was planned!! 😔

THE ITCHY NIPPLES!!! That was my worst thing in pregnancy, definitely don’t miss it 😭 I’m really scared for my next pregnancy because I really don’t know how I will cope with that with one child already

I'm really sorry mama🫶🏻💜

Same!! I'm pregnant with my second as well and I've already told my husband I'm not doing this again. Love our kids to death, but I hate being pregnant and the process. I want to have this baby and see about my hubs getting the snip 😆

You’ve totally described exactly how I feel - currently 35w can’t wait to be done and get to have my baby girl and not be pregnant anymore!!

Pregnancy is different for everyone hun. Mine was super smooth thank God. But here's what I consciously did to make it smooth as well. I stayed calm and relax by doing yoga, walks, and sunshine. Above all, I ate clean throughout my Pregnancy. Nausea, fatigue, and many aches are often rooted in our congested livers. Eat clean and drink lemon ginger and mint drink and it'll help you a lot. Stay active and you'll see much difference. Good luck:)

Yep !! Hate it !! Hate the way I look to !!!

I feel your pain. I’m currently pregnant with number 2 I had HG in my first pregnancy and have it 10 times worse this pregnancy. I will not be doing pregnancy again. I’ve just reached 20 weeks and over the past week I have been really feeling it in my hips when lay on my side. I’ve only had heartburn once so far but know it will get worse. Not going to lie I have been ticking off the days as a day I will never have to live again but also been counting up to half way. I’m now pleased to be counting down knowing I’ve done half. But I’m honest with people and if they judge me they do it silently and I don’t care. I can’t wait to meet my baby and for my son to have a sibling. I wanted this pregnancy for that reason not to be pregnant and the symptoms that go with it. Good for you if you love pregnancy but that is not my experience and yes we should be able to have our feelings heard without people thinking we don’t want our kids as it is not the same thing.

I hated being pregnant and when you tell people that they just look at you like your from out of this world. Then there's the ppl that say "you'll miss pregnancy once you give birth" and they are so wrong. I've always wanted 4 kids but I'm dreading being pregnant 3 more times so my LO might just end up a single child lol. The only thing I miss is my full head of hair before the post partum hormones took over

I HATE IT TOO! We were trying for baby for some years so when I have seen positive test omg we were over the moon….. and then week 9 came …. Geez that was worse than Covid I spent more than a month in bed I wasn’t able to do even a sandwich…. Later I came back to work it was ok but not amazing… I survived somehow till week 26 and gave up took all my holiday and later early maternity…. Then the heatwave came to UK and I was 7,5 months pregnant geez that was unreal. Well at week 32 I was begging consultant to make the c section as fast as possible! I was literally crying at the visit. My boobs were enormous huge, my legs and hands swallen to the point of pain. I wasn’t able to sleep, sit, stand or even eat! Have no idea how people are saying “eat for two” I wasn’t able to ate for one even!!! HATE IT SOOO MUCH! And yes women should say out loud how bad pregnancy can be! But that doesn’t mean I am not deadly in love with my daughter 🥰 she is the best what happened in my life.

Oh and I forgot to mention HEARTBURN! Hell on Earth! My heartburn was killing me I was doing all and nothing was helping with it. At month 8 and forward I wasn’t able to drink water and not getting heartburn!!! but yes she was born with head full of hair ;)

Yes! I hated being pregnant as well. It felt like torture from the very beginning, and my mental health definitely suffered. The rib pain started at 4 months, and it was unbearable, as if the rest of the symptoms weren’t bad enough. Another thing was that as an active person, I really believed that I was going to weight train or at least stay active up until the end haha, I literally experienced the complete opposite of what I expected. My baby is my world, but I don’t want to go through that again.

Yep!! I completely hated pregnancy too 😅

Let’s not forget the huge fat swollen feet and ankles 😤

I hated it too! Was shit!

I hated it and after having my baby I still hate it. I’m hoping to have another baby but I still hate pregnancy. I was so scared of being pregnant that my partner suggested surrogacy. It was that bad! I keep saying women don’t have to go through all these torment to bring beautiful souls to this world. The discomfort our organs face to accommodate the baby is more than enough. Most women make it look like it’s all beautiful (I know it is for some) and the pain is part of the beauty of being pregnant but damn it, it is not for everyone and shouldn’t be. If I had the power, all that women need do is, deal with the discomfort of carrying a human inside, nothing else!❤️

You got this girl!! For your hips pain have you considered seeing a chiropractor ? My pelvis was miss aligned and I had terrible pain because of that but felt much better after :)

Being pregnant with my 2nd baby was so bloody hard 😫😫no, I did not enjoy it!

I wish people understood that hating the process of pregnancy doesn't mean you don't want your baby 😭❣️❣️❣️

I loved it until 20 weeks… I’m 30 weeks now and it’s going so slow. I’m in love with my baby girl already but despise this process.

I hate it too.
