What were your biggest pregnancy surprises and pet peeves?
in Pregnancy ·
I wasn't quite sure which thread would be the best place for this, but I figured it might fit under things that just... grate on my nerves 😢
I’m currently seven months into my pregnancy, and honestly, until about three days ago, I felt like I could take on the world—I was even out riding my bike and feeling great. But NOW 😢 everything has changed. I feel incredibly bloated, like I’ve gained a hundred pounds (even though I’ve only put on about 15 pounds so far), and I can barely move. My nose is totally stuffed up and I'm winded just sitting there—maybe it's some kind of low blood pressure thing? Everything feels so heavy, and I’m honestly a bit shocked; I assumed the real struggle wouldn't hit until the final month, yet I still have three whole months to go 😢. Anyway, I mostly just wanted to vent here, because I assume I'm not the only one going through this. My husband is being wonderful and supportive, but I guess sometimes you just need to talk to someone who actually understands what you're feeling.
If I picked the wrong category, please don't hold it against me 🙄
