If they know you've got GBS then it will be fine, they can give you antibiotics. It's when they don't know about it that it can be a problem.

YANBU. I am about 16 wks with No.2 and though I'm delighted to have my DS and to be cooking another, I bloody hate pregnancy. I'm at a very good stage at the moment - the sickness has eased, I'm not so tired, bump is very small - but I'm still not enjoying it as I know what's to come! The last 10 weeks with DS were hell. My bump was way out front and very heavy, my pelvis ached constantly and I had permanent heartburn. But the worst thing was I couldn't get a minute of rest - sitting down was uncomfortable, lying down was uncomfortable, I could barely sleep, it was just awful. Plus I had serious anger issues, the hormones do not agree with me at all. The worst thing was a good few people looked at me like I was a monster when I complained, as if I was saying I didn't want the baby, so I had to keep it all to myself and pretend I was on cloud nine (apart from with DH, who bore the full brunt of my moods, poor bugger).

I'm trying to make the most of this quiet, easier period now before I start to feel the strain. But even though I feel pretty well, I still feel "invaded" IYSWIM - I know that's weird but I just feel like my body isn't my own and I don't really like it.

On the plus side, with DS, the newborn days were fab because I was so happy not to be pregnant any more I was absolutely on top of the world!

YADNBU. I am very happy to be having a baby, however pregnancy is shit. Sad I have constant heartburn which makes me puke in my mouth , a massive bump, tired to exhausted a lot, water infections and bugs galore, I'm snappy ..... roll on 13 weeks.

YANBU. I'm so glad I'm not pg anymore. Ds3 is 8 days old. Being able to stand up without elephantine grunts and sit down in a comfy position is incredible. No heartburn. No leg cramps.

oh gawd, forgot the aching esp in my legs. Congratulations Winky. Smile

I hate pregnancy. So much so I nearly didn't have a second. At 10 weeks with the nagged by DH for second, I am having a rough time. The worst thing is, I can't give DS the attention he needs as I feel so awful.

So far I have had constant nausea, vomiting, exhaustion, heartburn, dizzy spells, spots and it feels like my pelvic floor is about to fall out.

Only 30 weeks to go...
