It’s OKAY to hate being pregnant… #Shorts #BirthAnnouncement

It’s OKAY to hate being pregnant. There can be so much about pregnancy TO hate … constantly worrying that it might not stick, feeling completely fatigued and uncomfortable and ILL and incapable and unsexy … the insomnia, the heartburn, the painful shites, the cravings for things you can’t even eat (like firelighters 😂), the pelvic pain, the health anxiety, the fear about how your birth might go … I could go on, but I won’t. Because as much as I loathed being pregnant while trying to look after a toddler and trying to work and trying to renovate a bloody house I was also SO grateful through every second of it because I knew what was waiting for me on the other side, if I was lucky enough to make it through the tunnel. My last pregnancy was a breeze compared to this one but a challenging pregnancy has proven to me that how you feel about (and during) your pregnancy doesn’t impact your relationship with your child whatsoever! As soon as it’s done it’s DONE and you get to reap the rewards (newborn cuddles) ✨❤️

If the internet is making you feel bad about NOT enjoying pregnancy, please remember that people typically just share highlights … ESPECIALLY on their Instagram grids. Even during my last pregnancy (which was pretty smooth sailing in that I didn’t experience any depression and I felt *overall* - great during it) there were of course harder times, which I went into on YouTube. But know that just because people don’t usually post photos of the hard parts of pregnancy … that doesn’t mean they don’t exist 👌🏻 We’re not exactly inclined to take out our cameras when we’re vomiting our guts up, are we!? 😂
