I hate being pregnant
Show your support
Your not alone. I haven’t enjoyed pregnancy one bit! It’s very normal. especially when you’re not feeling well. Keep pushing through your already 32 weeks. It’s going fly by now x
I'm the same - hate everything about it and enduring every day. I'll never do this again! It's awful!
Omg I was just thinking this morning how shit it is 🤣😭 xxx
I know this feeling remember it will be so worth it in the end xxx
Thank god I’m not the only one, I feel so ungrateful but I feel so unhappy! X
There are some lovely moments in pregnancy as you mentioned (the kicks and feeling them with you). But tbh a lot of it, if we’re being honest, is horrible and it’s a lot of physical and emotional strain! You’re totally normal to be feeling fed up with the pregnancy… but it will be worth it in the end! Xx
I absolutely hated both of my pregnancies. With the pain, constant morning sickness the whole way through, emotions, heartburn, swollen feet. I was waiting for the ‘pregnancy glow’ but I was just miserable for 9 months. But I do not regret having either of my girls and love them more than anything! I found pregnancy very much the means to the end, rather than an experience to treasure and enjoy 😂.
Thought I was the only one and I’m not even half way!
Convinced everyone who says it's amazing and the best time of their lifes is lying lol, I hate it too! I've waited my whole life to be a mum I didn't realise the pregnancy would be this hard, painful and exhausting ❤️.
I agree with everything here. I struggled through the majority of my pregnancy. But I’m now sitting here with my 3 month old baby daughter asleep on me and trust me when it say, it was all worth it ❤️ Hang in there, you’re all doing an amazing job!
@Jessica this is exactly what I say! When I get someone tell me “ahh I loved being pregnant” I’m like don’t lie! You’ve just forgotten how shit it is because you’re not pregnant anymore! I’m sure I’ll look back and romanticise it too when I’ve not got crippling back pain and im no longer a hormonal mess xx
@Jess this is what I’m dreaming of 🥲❤️
Girl, I feel you! I’ve been ill the whole time. Got told 2/3 years ago I’d never have kids after trying for years and I’ve waited this long to be miserable the whole time. Poorliness, ligamental pains, migraines, emotional… it’s been the worst experience but feeling my little boy move in my belly and knowing I’ve only got 6 weeks tomorrow left my heart feels so whole. I’ve been counting down the whole time and won’t be in a rush to have another for abit… just keep distracted as much as possible and enjoy the prep, buying things, surround yourself with people that love you and hopefully it’ll fly in!💕
I'm also trying to distract myself but just so so exhausted. 😥

I despise being pregnant. It's so uncomfortable, all of the time. I have no energy. Will be worth it in the end but I hate the process, and will not be doing it again
Completely agree @Mia 🌼 . I've been so so ill, got signed off work for a month, now am in so much pain and only 23 weeks 😬😬😬 in the grand scheme of things not a long way to go but it's pretty unbearable RN.
@Sally I was same! I signed off and then had to take early maternity! Been so bad x
Be gentle to yourself. You're going through something incredibly demanding, and it’s completely okay to have mixed feelings about it. I really understand where you’re coming from,I’ve felt the same way. I was so ill during the first 4 months of my pregnancy, I ended up in hospital, and honestly, I was just surviving, not enjoying it at all. Even now at 22 weeks, it’s still tough. But what keeps me going is knowing that soon I’ll meet my baby, and that makes all of this worth it. It’s okay not to love the process,pregnancy can be so challenging,but it doesn’t make you any less of a brilliant mum already. You’re doing an amazing job, even if it doesn’t feel that way right now.
