I HATE being pregnant. I have had so many complications thus far. My OB HUGGED me b/c she had never seen someone with so many complications. I am tired of the Braxton-Hicks that are SOOOOOOOOOOO painful. My husband is the most wonderful man in the world, but he can't understand how badly it sucks to be me right now. AND, I still have eight weeks to go. I have gained 65 pounds thus far. (No, I am not a pig... I have a very serious swelling problem that may lead to pre-eclampsia.) I used to look so cute in all of my outfits. Now, some people don't even recognize me...

Tip, I am soooo sorry you are having a bummer pregnancy. I had rough ones too....I was sick for 6 months the first time and 4 1/2 the second. I had a highly underweight baby the first time and I developed severe preeclampsia the second time and had to deliver prematurely. I hope you don't get preeclamptic because I will warn you, magnesium sulfate SUCKS.....and it is the only thing that works. All that said, I LOVED being pregnant. I so long to feel it one more time before I go menopausal. It is such a short period of time (yeah I know it's hard to believe that when you are in it) but it is over before you know it and then you kind of grieve a little. Hope the rest goes smoothly for you though.....
