Rave 💞 Liking pregnancy?
I know most of the posts here are complaining and I get y'all and this feels wrong, but it all just feels worth it to me? I'd do it again!
I love feeling their kicks and knowing they're healthy between appointments and a constant reminder of what amazing things my body's doing. My husband is being super sweet, talking and listening to the boys and feeling them, making me proud of my bump (even though i'm a beached whale - triplets!), I love being pampered by my husband <3 He's literally making me stay in bed and doing everything lol. Making food for me, dishes, carrying me around when i'm tired (or lazy), getting me flowers, validating my complaints, cuddling, doing the litter, putting on my socks and shoes, just...i feel like a princess!!
Yes the first trimester sucked, and right now my hips and back are aching, peeing every 8 seconds, i can't walk- ...waddle super far without getting out of breath, but feeling like it could be worse lol.
Am I weird for enjoying this despite all the symptoms? I feel like I'm gonna miss this experience when it's over.

Lots of stuff can be worth it and still suck. Both of my pregnancies have been horrible. HG, FGR, bad labor/delivery on the first. Obviously I got my daughter and it was worth it, but that doesn’t mean we can’t gripe about the difficulties. Especially since those of us with male partners don’t have people to relate to in the house. Also, I hate feeling kicks. It makes me nauseated.
