and hand swelling, but it's the falling asleep that really messed me up.  I'm glad it turned out to pregnancy related and not a permanent degeneration so early in life.

except to just power through and remember the beauty part--when it's over, it's over, and you have the biggest reward you will ever have.  The only reward you will ever have for major discomfort.  When I went to the hospital to have my son, I was dreading birth and looking forward to not being pregnant anymore.  But also, I had this sadness, knowing that he would probably be my last.  I kept thinking, "this will probably be the last time I'm in the hospital for a happy occasion."

My weirdest symptom was nausea triggered by "art".  My daughter's films, songs and books that I was tired of.    Most notably, the beautiful animated film Snow White, and this obnoxious little My Little Pony book.  Had me not only queasy but vomiting, every single time.

I hate getting out of breath so easy.  Our laundry room is downstairs and a couple of trips up and down the stairs and I'm breathing really hard.

I hate the morning sickness too.  But now that I am past that, it seems like a distant memory.

Babyfish gets hiccups ALL THE FREAKIN TIME!  And not for 10 or 15 minutes, more like 45.  It happens several times a day, particularly at that blissful moment where I get the "giant body vs. multiple pillows" ratio just right ...  I tried to describe it to some non parent co workers and all I could think of was "Try to imagine how horrible it would be if there was a little alien in your body with the hiccups, and you couldn't control it, stop it, or excise it."  Their sympathy went up a few notches!

Oh yeah, and in the last couple of days, my toes have started swelling to resemble little sausages.

Of course, when I am up nursing every two hours in a month or so, these will be "the good ol' days". Ha!

everything about pregnancy sucked for me.  I'm so happy that I'm never doing that again.  

Don't get me wrong, there was a lot that was miserable.  With DS (my second) I had a horrible last 3 weeks - this pressure on my pelvis that made me feel like he was just going to drop out...  And then he came late!  Ugh.  Both kids at 41 weeks...  that waiting game was not my strong suit.

But, feeling the first kick and the somersaults in my belly...  Knowing exactly how they'd react to certain foods I'd eat.  I'm a grad student and was in classed when pregnant with DS.  The other students (mostly younger) would all just laugh in the afternoon classes because DS did gymnastics after lunch and his activities were visible to anyone near me.

One friend once said that she just wished her DH could do it - and while I'd give up labor and delivery in a minute - I think that having gone through pregnancy there are parts of it that I'd be so jealous of if DH did it instead.  

As an earlier poster mentioned, maybe Mother Nature is already tricking me!

With the girl it was fabulous, with the boy it was hell.  I don't know how I got through it, I just did.  I was a total b*tch the entire time, I know that, and maybe it helped.  I guess somewhere in my subconscious, I figured if I had to be miserable, so could everyone else.  I had MRSA, pre-eclampsia, and gestational diabetes.  Gah!!!  No wonder my poor dh wants to be done with having babies. Bless him, he never ever uttered a word about my horrible behavior, and always defended me.  

Honestly, I have found every part of pregnancy bothersome at some level.  Heck, even feeling the baby move gets tiresome when it keeps me up at night.

I am really the most miserable pregnant woman I know.  How sad.

I just delivered a boy March 1st, but the worst part of my pregnancy was not the gestational diabetes, the preeclampsia, the lactation-induced tumor in my left breast...it was not being able to find a pair of pants that didn't bother me!  I was never comfortable, I was always pulling them up or down to try to be more comfortable.  The slightest pressure made me miserable.
2nd place would be sleeping positions.  I got so tired of only sleeping on my sides.  My ears literally hurt from laying on them all night.

being pregnant.  easy labors. first one induced took 5 hours.  last two about two hours.  
but I hated drinking decaf and no wine until late in pregnancy.  Even though I was pregnant one new year's didn't yet know it and got rip roarin' drunk.  worried through out the whole pregnancy!
my husband used to grab the foot or whatever was poking out.
didn't like that I couldn't sleep due to stuffy nose, but I usually found a comfortable position.
the only really dreadful thing, I got giardia in the 7th month (july) of my last pregnancy.  I had dreadful diarrhea and thought it was just the MN summer heat.  only going to doc once a month by then, so suffered for a month.  I mean it seemed like everything I ate went directly in one end and out the other, did not pass go, did not stop to collect $200.  finally at doc appt, he suspected right away, and since I was LOSING weight at a time I should still be gaining he had to weigh damage to baby from drugs or prolonged weight loss and dehydration.  took the drug, 5 days, giardia done and pregnancy proceeded no problems.  actually the only one of 3 pregnancies that went all the way.  First two were 3 weeks early and so by the third i whined because he seemed so late, but he was just on time +4 days!
