I have been there and it's just not worth it. It's hard to enjoy being pregnant when you're miserable. I remember counting down the days and being glad I was a vessel but not enjoying it one bit! You're doing really well and you shouldn't feel bad about complaining, we all understand. (((HUG))) Don’t you feel guilty! I have been there and it’s just not worth it.

Do not for one second think you have to feel guilty about hating the suffering you have gone through in this pregnancy! Those precious boys are no less loved and wanted. You are trooper, hang in there. I sure wish I had been home!!

I have two hefty shoulders that are great for leaning, crying, complaining, or just letting it all out. We all know how much of a blessing these two boys are, and you deserve them. You're also allowed to complain a bit when you're miserable. Hope your appointment goes well tomorrow. I'll be thinking about you!

I know just how you feel, with every pregnancy I felt like shit, hyperemesis, PTL, etc. I also know about the stress that comes along with that and I think you need to take a deep breath b/c the boys are doing good, and you hit a great milestone in the pregnancy if the boys were to be born sooner than later. Just tell yourself "4 more weeks" and when that gets here, you push yourself another week, and then another. I think it was about this point in my pregnancy that I made a chain countdown thing with my girls and each week we tore one off and it really helped me to keep some perspective!

(((Hugs))) You've got a lot on your plate. Everyone who knows you knows how hard you worked to get pg. You've had a very rough time of it - I'd want to be done, too! (((Hugs))) That said, FWIW, I think you look great. And I'd never have guessed that was a fake smile! You have every right to feel that way! (((Hugs))) You’ve got a lot on your plate.

You wanted to be PG ONLY because it gets you babies. You wanted babies, not to be pregnant, but of course that goes with it. I pretty much hated being pregnant, especially with Claire, and I felt guilty too, but I realized not wanting to be pregnant had nothing to do with not wanting the baby. I wish I were there to help, but that's a pipe dream. I hope things get easier soon!! *HUGS* Girl, wishing yourself not pregnant any longer doesn’t make you want those babies any less.

I'm so sorry the boys are causing you such pain! They are just trying to make sure it looks EASY to care for two little ones when they get here! LOL! I hope they give you a little bit of a break and that they stay put as long as possible! Don't feel bad...every pg woman goes through a hard time at some point and you have had MORE than your fair share of hard times!! Good luck! Awwww…Sommer!

You're allowed to cry, allowed to have moments of hysteria, allowed to want to be done. It doesn't mean you're not grateful. Hang in there hun. aw Sommer.
