I can relate. My experience hasn't been that great. My morning sickness was terrible but I never threw up so I guess that's a plus but I felt like I would 24/7 and I never slept. Then at about 10 wks I started feeling better and had more energy, then I started getting this pain in my tailbone that lasted about two weeks. Then the headaches started. I asked my doc about them last week and she said it's common until 18 wks!!!! Gees! If it's not one thing, it's another! Some days I'm bloated and constipated so now she tells me to start taking Metamucil or some other stuff so I don't get so bloated every five days cus I feel like a total cow up until then and afterwards I'm back to normal. I don't say I totally hate it but I do say I can't WAIT till I'm NOT pregnant anymore and I definately won't be doing this again :) So I can relate to how you feel. I'm only 13 wks so I have a long way to go. Fortunately I still can wear all my jeans but my shirts don't fit cus my boobs are too big! What I thought would be so great is now annoying cus I feel like a tramp when my tank tops are super tight! Ha ha! I'd take my small boobs back any day! I'm not looking forward to the stomach either like a lot of pregnant women wait for. I hope I stay fairly slim until later in the pregnancy. But I'm dealing with it and just telling myself it'll all be over in October. Too bad I have to be pregnant over the summer though! It's been an interesting experience so far. I'm glad I get to experience it once at least.
