I'm 28+1, second pregnancy and haven't enjoyed either. I can't wait to meet number 2 but my god I'm feeling so down and fed up today. I feel huge, I feel disgusting in whatever clothes I wear, my lower back aches, I feel guilty for not having energy to play with my 2-year-old, I'm fed up with being sick and peeing myself at the same time.

I feel like every time I try talking to anyone they say 'oh don't worry, not long to go now' or 'oh your bump is so big now'. I just want my mobility back and to be able to feel slightly human again but still have 12(+) weeks to go

I feel the same! 😥I'm 24+4 and I'm so fed up lately... this also my second pregnancy!

My first pregnancy was an absolute dream and I don't think i fully appreciated how enjoyable it was, whereas this time round it's been awful and it's got me so down. I'm a lot bigger this time round than I was with my first and all I can seem to wear is leggings and I'm sick to death of wearing them 🙃 I feel "fat" and frumpy and just ugh all the time. Fed up of getting up about 6 times in the night for a pee, fed up of the round ligament pain, the headaches and low energy.

Don't get me wrong it will be worth it in the end to have my baby but it's hard not to feel fed up isn't it! I keep waiting for my 'pregnancy glow' but in all honesty I don't think its coming now 🙄

Keep smiling lovely, you've got this xx

I’ve bled throughout first trimester, got PGP at 22 weeks, had a gallstone attack and generally in pain most days. But in all honesty; no, I’m very grateful and feel so lucky to be here after IVF and losses. It’s hard and difficult for many but focus on the positives/end point if you can. I’m looking forward to less daily pain that’s for sure.

Not sure how you’re expecting/wanting others to say/respond - if you just want to rant and be heard that makes sense and sometimes people’s positivity spin is irritating but I think it’s due to them not knowing what else to say!

still being sick is tough + pregnant in summer, I hope the last third goes better x

33 weeks and sick of being pregnant too.
2nd pregnancy and it has been much harder this time and the 1st pregnancy was bad enough.
Hyperemesis for the 2nd time and medicated for it. This time I have also been graced with Gestational Diabetes and insane lower abdomen pain.
Nothing has been straight forward sadly and we still have some unknows.
Im way bigger than I was before as well which isnt helping at all.

I know im only moaning and it wont get me anywhere but people reminding me there isnt long to go are getting me down if im honest!
Ill be glad when baby is out safely thats for sure!

Im 39+4 and so fed up looking after my 2yo is an absolute nightmare at this point.

Thanks for replying everyone, it's made me feel less alone 💛 One of my friends who's just had a baby said 'Its not forever❤️' which weirdly helped.

Sometimes I wish people would just talk to me about any random crap, anything other than pregnancy! It's nice having a reminder that I'm still me and it keeps me thinking about other stuff.

I hope everyone else is doing okay. We've got this!
