Some women LOVE to be pregnant and some women hate it. Which was it for you, and why?

I actually really enjoyed being pregnant in the first 2 trimesters. Its an indescribable feeling to know that you are carrying a new life inside of you. By the last trimester, I was sick of being pregnant. I am normally really petite (5 feet, 100 pounds), so the 30 pounds that I gained made me really uncomfortable. So I guess my answer is: I loved it in the beginning, but was ready for it to be over so that I could get back to my regular size. *LoL*

I am not pregnant, but i was. For me it was a beautiful experience. It was a period when i felt very seek until my baby moved in my belly. After that period came the most wonderful moments from my life. I was trully happy every time when the baby moved and every time when my husband kissed my belly telling stories to our baby. Like a conclusion i loved being pregnant.

I absolutely loved being pregnant all four times. I was sick almost every day with my first child, and I mean physically sick..vomiting. I was placed on bed rest the last 3 months of my pregnancy with the first pregnancy also, but still...that amazing fact kept me going..I had a baby growing inside me..that is the most amazing thing God has given us women..the ability to carry and birth babies. I would do it over and over again if I had the finances to care for a lot of kids. During my fourth pregnacy, I ended up becoming very, very miserable...my baby was breach until a week before he was born, and he turned on his own that week before...and here is the kicker, he weighed 10lbs and was 22 1/2 inches long..that hurt when he turned..not to mention that birth was very very painful, considering he was stuck..head out and not moving..lol But yes, I loved being pregnant and giving birth!! Good conversation! Have a great day.

Oh, Nelly, what are you saying about your fourth pregnacy and birth too seems to be awful, but i think that God give us a big power to pass these moments and let us to love our children with all our parts of body and soul.

I'm Loving it. The morning sickness is nothing. Its really great to sit there and feel the baby move and kick. its one of the most happy feelings knowing that your baby is right there. Another bonus is that my relationship with my husband has gotten alot stronger, and hes been very understanding. I think if the roles were reversed and he was the one pregnant I'd be so jealous. Double bonus is that even though I have gained in the belly I have lost 28 pounds from the rest of my body Even though it bizar that I'm loosing weight its kinda cool. And I've only gained 7 pounds from the baby. I'm currently at myu pre-wedding wait of 135 pounds Whoo hooo!

Im single and 8 months pregnant. I would definitely be enjoying it more if i didnt have to worry about how to pay for everything. It's getting really hard on me trying to make enough money and keep the baby healthy. But, I LOVE feeling her move, and I cant wait to hold her in my arms after she is born!

I loved being pregnant! I was one of the lucky ones who didn't have the usual "bad" things that happen to them during pregnancy - no morning sickness, no heartburn etc. In fact, you wouldn't know I'm pregnant if you didn't see my growing belly. It was great knowing that I was pregnant though I felt I left it too late (I was 37 when I had my first baby) and knowing the risks such as difficult childbirth or genetic disease in the child. Pregnancy made me very happy and fulfilled.
