Starting to despise pregnancy.

I’m 9wks 3 & seriously starting to despise it already. Been bleeding on & off since 6wks, mostly brown blood but with the odd 24hr or so spell of bright red flesh blood which epu recommend just watching. Had a private scan a week ago & baby had a good healthy heartbeat so I’m not quite as worried as I could be.

Can anyone else relate or do I just need to suck it up? Surely my stress levels can’t be doing baby any good?

Please be kind 🙈

I hate pregnancy, it's all too stressful and worrying. Your stress levels won't do anything to the baby, not at this point and not unless it was literally traumatic/disaster levels of stress.

Flowers Anyone would feel the same.

Aw @Bubblemonkey I felt exactly the same. It continued into early second trimester then got SO much easier. Hang in there - it sucks but it does get better!

Yes.
I really have not enjoyed pregnancy despite having what I understand to be a relatively “easy one”
I have had…
Mild nausea - no vomiting 1st tri
Pregnancy insomnia all the way through
Fairly brutal Sciatica from 10 weeks-18weeks corrected with loads of yoga and staying mobile

It does get better…I really started enjoying it in the last 5/10 days but am 26 weeks so about time!
