To think it's ok to be pissed off and uncomfortable in late pregnancy

I am very pregnant. I won't go into it but my body is not coping very well with pregnancy at all, my downstairs area is all kinds of wrong and I have one fat leg. I also have a very active 15 mo old to run after and I am too warm.

My neighbour chastised me yesterday as I dared to say I'd had 'enough.' as my DS1 was born very prem I should apparently be grateful for every single day I'm carrying this baby. I have health problems which make carrying a pregnancy difficult.

My point is that you can be glad to be pregnant and still be pissed off with pregnancy. We don't all glow. Plus, I am at a stage where if the baby was born he would likely be completely 100% fine. My consultant even said I'd 'made it' when I saw her this week.

I am probably being a hormonal mad pregnant lady but AIBU to defend my right to be pissed off with pregnancy.

Be nice please.

YANBU and how fucking dare she? I say that as a very fed up 39 week pregnant lady! I love my dc more than the whole universe, but no fucker is telling me that I should be enjoying the pregnancy - it's a bloody awful thing to endure that is infinately worth it in the end. There is certainly no reason you shouldn't have a good moan and begrudge all the discomforts and medical complications that come with it.

I've had a 'easy' pregnancy and am 40 weeks today and I'm proper fed up. And I still love it all at the same time
