I had a hard pregnancy.... and I'm still debating on doing it again. For me I could survive the morning sickness, aches, pains, and swollen feet. I just can't survive the migraines again while taking care of my LO. If I can take care of my migraines (having a surgery tomorrow for them!) I'd def want to have another.

And that is after telling my hubby no way that we're having a second while I was in labor. And then again after I gave birth and had an awful tear that took forever to heal. But you live through the pain, forget about it, and you'll be begging your hubby for another within two months of LO's birth

My biggest problem with pregnancy is the crazy emotions. I had morning sickness for the first 13 weeks this time and at the time it really sucked but now that part is over, I feel the baby move lots and it is like it never happened.

now that i'm in my 3rd trimester and feeling very pregnant, peeing all the time, back aching, having major reflux and feeling nauseous every time i eat, i'm not loving it, that's for sure. but i LOVE LOVE LOVE my babies so that's what's keeping me somewhat sane.

Hm, I'm somewhere not on that poll. I like it and am enjoying pregnancy (mostly) but don't want to be pregnant forever!! Also, not in my 3rd tri yet so it could change!

It isn't easy, that's for sure. Some parts were great, some parts really sucked. I'm definitely fonder of it now that the pregnancy is over (amnesia already?). Maybe I will enjoy it more the second time around? I really miss feeling him move, but I love having him on the outside to cuddle I took him to the zoo yesterday and saw like 400 pregnant women and felt a tiny bit jealous, then I looked at my boy and was very happy. I guess mixed feelings is where I am at.

I dont hate being pregnant, but I dont love it either. It is exciting looking forward to the baby and all that but the actual physical part of being pregnant sometimes feels like an ordeal. I have often wondered how people go through this multiple times but I think once you have the first baby you just feel like it totally worth it

I am only seven weeks, have not had a lot of symptoms, but as far as worrying that goes along with pregnancy, I have had a bumpy road and so many emotions this far....makes me nervous. for what is to come. Pregnancy is exciting but scary at the same time

I voted it's ok. For the most part, I've had a good pregnancy, but I just generally haven't enjoyed it. I feel so bad for admitting that. I'm so grateful to be pregnant, and to have the chance to carry our child, but it's just not really what I expected. It's much harder. I really thought I'd be one of those women that loved pregnancy. The only part I truly enjoy is feeling her move, the u/s, and hearing the heartbeat. I'm just ready for her to be here!

so far I'm okay with it, but sickness really hasn't hit me yet, it's more of a tired no matter how much I sleep kind of feeling. And I miss caffeine more than I expected. Lately though I have noticed my sense of smell is incredibly picky.

I don't hate it, but I'm certainly not happy about it or even indifferent. I really dislike it. But I'm more than halfway there at 23 weeks now and I'm so happy to meet my baby!

Awww, don't feel bad. My morning sickness was SO bad with my first pregnancy (not to mention a whole lot of other horrible symptoms) that I swore that was it, no more babies. I used to throw up 3-5 times a day and lost almost 10 lbs. Then I had gestational diabetes and had to take blood glucose tests 4x/day and follow a super strict diet. I couldn't do it again, so i thought. But just wait...it'll pass and you'll soon forget. And then you'll see your beautiful precious baby and think "Yeah, I would do it all over again.".

I don't hate it, but I don't like it either. For the 1st trimester I felt like I had food poisoning until 14 weeks. 2nd tri was better but the back pain started. 3rd tri is not too fun, I have too many complaints about my aches and pains. Inner thighs, pelvis, hips, lower back! It hurts to get dressed, to walk up the stairs I've been very adamant about having at least 2 children--but just this week I told my mom and husband that we're adopting the second child because I'm not doing this pregnancy thing again!

But I do love feeling my baby move, she really is my sunshine

I am really not a huge fan of pregnancy itself. Don't get me wrong--I planned for, prayed for and tried for this baby and couldn't want her more! I've just only had about 2 months of this pregnancy where I felt pretty good-- between the first awful, sick 18 weeks and then starting to get uncomfortable around 26 weeks. I do love feeling her kick and hiccup, and daydreaming about what she's going to look like and the first time I get to hold her, and I love knowing she's safe and snuggly in there right now. I just don't love not sleeping, the heartburn and reflux, the peeing every 5 minutes, the feeling constantly exhausted, the food restrictions/ aversions/ nausea, and feeling like my body isn't mine.
