I'm pregnant now I'd say that it is very weird, you just feel really different. It's exciting and fun because you get to watch your body go from something you've always known to something unpredictable and different, also because you get to feel your baby a little human being inside of you react to different things like noise and things you drink and eat You feel special because you're pregnant and everyone can tell and they will always ask you things about it and are more like courteous But at the same time not all people are that way some are mean and nasty and say rude things or ask rude questions You never feel one way, you always feel different. Sometimes I'm reallyyy happy some days I wake up really sad for no reason. It's not easy at all, especially being young but I guess if you're in a better position in life it's easier?

You're welcome. There's like zero activity down here -_- lol so I get excited when there is!
&Me either but i've learned to just ignore it and toughen up now lol all at the end of this. But most of the time it's just ignorant people. Most people who have kids men & women are way more nice & stuff I guess because they have gone through the pregnancy thing. Especially men like in my class' who have children always ask me how is the baby & just really nice. Just like my brother & mother wanted me to get an abortion and they openly said that and tried to convince me to. My doctor's assistant was like "you should've stayed on Depo" and just being rude when after my test was positive. I guess cause I'm young but still no excuse, we don't know eachother like that, she may know my mom but not me. I was about 6 months and I was at best buy & I was talking my friend that was working at the register about me being pregnant. & a lady & her daughter were like behind me & my mom & grandma & they were talking to eachother & the mom asked are you pregnant? & I said yes & she was like how many months & I said 6 & she said so is she and the daughter was like yeah I am too, you're so small & I was like haha I know I wish I were bigger & the mom said is there something wrong with your baby or something like that & I was like no & just being nice still but I was just thinking like wtf... why would you ask that or say that to my face
I can't really think much right now lol but people are bold.

All I can say is wow and I'm sorry you have to endure the ignorence...but I'm for you. You are a strong woman and god bless you and your baby. Thank you again for sharing.
Do you have baby furniture bc what ever you need you know its black friday and black friday is the best day to get anything. Get all the baby cloths you can get. Go online and see if you can even get bulk diapers. If you need help searching just let me know.

People can be rude when you're pregnant, even those closest to you. One of my friends told me when I was pregnant that she hoped my baby didn't look like my husband. That hurt. That's why I kinda get mad when people talk about Beyonce's unborn child. That's a cruel thing to say to someone.

pregnancy is a crazy but beautiful thing. I didnt even know I was pregnant until I was 5 months pregnant. my stomach was still flat but my belly button was sticking all the way out . I thought it was a hernia from cheer & stunting but it wasnt .. I didnt really start pickn up weight until I was 6 months and the weight jst kept COMING&COMING. most people were nice to me but everytime I went out I got the side eye becus I look younger than what i really am. some people are VERY RUDE. my next door neighbor doesnt quite have it all and when he found out I was pregnant he was like " Asshhhleey you having a baby?" I replied,"yes." he says " Do you know who you baby daddy is?? I think you do becus I know you not a hoe" .. shocking right. the only thing about being pregnant tht made me mad was I could only walk or lightly cycle and being very athletic I felt like I was paralized  . Labor&Delivery. I didnt even know I was in labor until my water broke. by the time I got to the hospital everything happend so fast .. got there at 8am .. they made me fill out insurance papers (yes they did).. finally got in to delivery room and the nurses had the nerve to tell me I couldnt push becus there wasnt any L&D dr there yet .. dr came at 8:45am & my son Aiden was born at 9:02am. 7lbs 5.5oz 22in  Now motherhood .. I think the first 6 weeks are the HARDEST. with people constantly trying to come over, them forcing advice on you,and sleep deprivation yea its not a good mix. Especially with your hormones being all over the place

I hated being pregnant....but I think it was more of my situation. I had so much going on and I was in nursing school...public transportation from brooklyn to nj everyday. And ppl are so rude to pregnant women or its just me that was extra moody. IDK...but I wasn't feeling it. I'll probably have a better pregnancy next time...(If there is one) But the actual labor and delivery was great. I mean they kept sending me home with sleeping pills...but after 3 days I couldn't bear it anymore so I demanded they check me and they induced my labor. I wanted natural but my contractions were 'dysfunctional' they called it. And it was ll over the place I wouldn't be able to push right or something. So I had the epidural. That made things soo easy. I pushed when they told me and she was out in 40 mins. I dilated really quick too...4cm to 10 in 45 mins when they induced me. After the labor...I was ok. I breastfeed so I lost my tummy pretty quick, but I got a hernia so I had to have a surgery. Now my self esteem is an all time low because of this ugly scar...and my belly just don't look nothing like it did before. And one of my breast got engorged...so I have one saggy boob.... I hate being pregnant and the experience...the only postive thing out of it was my daughter...not including the first 2 months. I couldn't deal with her newborn stage. But don't let my experience deter you. Everyone is different!

I got pregnant right after I got engaged. My mom was disappointed cause I was still living at home, still in school, and unmarried. I was so scared to tell her but eventually told her a few days after I found out. My fiancé was over the moon. Overall it was a good pregnancy but I gained so much weight. Went from 133 to 169 by the time my son was born. I was scared I wouldn't get my body back. Had a miscarriage threat around 14 weeks..went to the ER cause I was bleeding and after being there for hours finally got released and everything was ok after that. Had my baby shower on a Sunday, my water broke that Friday at 3 am. Was in labor for 3 hrs my son was born at 6:35am almost three weeks before my due date. Now I have a 3 year old :(
