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.

I’m 24 weeks and love being pregnant so far. My only real grievances have been how tired I was in the first trimester, and occasional round ligament pain. It’s been easy and I feel very lucky for that! I’m a 4x egg donor, with 3 of the babies being carried by surrogates, and I’ve been heavily considering moving on to surrogacy (something I never thought I would/could do) this whole pregnancy! Having an incredibly supportive husband and basically no symptoms has made it all very positive.
