I HATE IT!!!!!!! Like others said, it's a means to an end. I hate having my body hijacked and having no control of it. The weight gain, morning sickness, heartburn, fatigue, insomnia, achy hips, sciatica, pressure on my lungs and lack of breath, being uncomfortable most of the time, being HOT all of the time, itchy nipples, dry skin, dry heaving, gagging, not being able to brush my back teeth without gagging, aversion to smells and foods. I've never had the kind of pregnancy like others describe when you are just shooting rainbows out your butt. I think of it as 9 months of being miserable that I have to get through to get what I want, my little one.
The first time around the baby kicking freaked me out. It felt like aliens in my body trying to get out. It was WEIRD to me. This second time around I don't mind it and and am enjoying knowing baby is doing well in there. 6 more weeks and I never have to do this again!!! :)
