I feel alone.
It's like I'm not "allowed" to be miserable. Yes, what I'm doing is miraculous. Yes, millions of women are doing it too, and not complaining.
Good for them.
They aren't me.
Every time I try to talk about how I'm feeling, I get a story. It's either about how some woman was pregnant, and walked 50 miles to work every day, barefoot, in the snow, with a 100 lb pack on her back, up-hill both ways and never complained.
I don't care.
I'm allowed to not like being pregnant. I'm allowed to bitch about it without constant reminders that it's all worth it. Can't someone just listen????
Apparently not.
I feel all alone.

My RAK Project
RAK = Random Acts of Kindness
This is a weekly blog entry I've started. It's a call to be kind. Each week I'll issue a challenge, simple and very do-able. We so often get caught up in the day to day of life, we forget simple kindness.
So, I'd love to get as many people involved in this as possible. I want to hear what you think of my challenge, suggest new challenges, and your experience with each weeks challenge. If your story is a really great one, I'll share here.
You can see all RAK posts here.
You can see all the great people out there RAKing here. Make sure you peek at their blogs, and show some love!

If it helps, which it may not, I was the very last one to be elated about being pregnant with my son. I was too busy not enjoying feeling like the bottom of my shoe every day.
You're more than entitled to not like how you're feeling. Sorry you feel alone. :( Complain all you want to!!!
Hugs!!
I HATED being pregnant. I whined, I complained and didn't enjoy a single moment. You go right on ahead and complain - we will definitely listen!!!!
You are so not alone! I know exactly what you mean! Pregnancy, for me, was a beautiful miracle, but it sucked! I was sick and huge and hurt all the time......
