For me, Being pregnant SUCKED! I went thru a lot of crap when I was pregnant. Its not all honky dorey whether you think so or not. Im not saying that those of you who cant get pregnant should have to listen to it, but its your choice to be around the people who are. I've never been around anyone who couldnt have children when I want pregnant; BUT I can say that I complained a LOT and I was on bed rest, I HAD to take shots to keep him in. I think it was MUCH easier to adopt. I think having children thru birth is an expierence that no one should take for granted as is adoption. I think everyone has the right to complain about whatever. I see people on here complain CONSTANTLY about adoption!
HOWEVER the complaining part is natural. I STILL complain about my role as a mom, but I do love it. Its hard work and its exhausting, i get yelled at by my kids, I get pooped on, I have to do ALOT. I think if you are sick of hearing about pregnancy from your family, thendont be around it or walk away. Its like the saying, "If you can't stand the heat get outta the kitchen!" lol JMO Everyone has the right to complain, just a matter of whose listening!
