The best: feeling my little girl moving around!!!
The worst: the back pain, not being able to get comfortable to sleep, the tiredness......

So much more bad things than good!! But I know when I see my little girl, all the bad will be forgotten! Laughing

The best part for me was feeling him moving and knowing that I would soon be holding him.

The worst was the carpel tunnel I had from being pregnant and the swollen cankles

You guys are gonna hate me for saying this but, I love all of it!!...most of the time anyway. I find all of the symptoms interesting especially when you find out what causes them and how they relate to helping the baby along. Like, I've got bad carpal tunnel but I know that it's because I need all the extra blood and fluid in my body to support the baby and that's what causes it. I've got most of the usual aches and pains but they just seem so much more meaningful than if I had them without being pregnant. I'm having a healthy pregnancy so I don't want to complain about things that are just par for the course. I had some problems earlier in my pregnancy and I was so scared I was gonna lose the baby. If I had complications that were harmful to the baby I guess I would feel different but so far I'm loving every minute of it!!

*Best* Feeling her squirm around and having her to look forward to very soon!

*Worst* The Irritabilty ... one minute I'm absolutely furious about something and the next I'm crying like I'm more devastated than I've ever been.
Thank god I have those little outbursts on my own. They're honestly so bad sometimes I think if someone saw them they'd commit me.

I can totally relate....I've had a couple of "moments" as well. My guy will look at me funny and all of a sudden I'm crying my eyes out like my heart is broken. I'm so lucky he's a patient person but I can tell by the way that he looks at me that he's just kinda confused and scared to say anything when I'm like that. Poor guy!

The best: my baby bump and feeling her move around all the time. Sharing this experience with my husband. Getting all the baby stuff ready to go.

The worst: When she kicks me in my ribs all day, and by the end of the day my ribs are super sore. My sciatic nerve is killing me. Getting tired just walking up a flight of stairs. The heartburn.

I'm sure there's more, but that's all I could think of for now! Twisted Evil

Best thing..Watching my husband becoming a father, Having him rum by belly, watching my belly move with her trying to excape, knowing im going to have a beautiful little girl in 9 weeks.

Worst thing: Maternity pants that fall off my ass all the time and im always pulling on, feeling like I have broken ribs because they hurt so horribly, peeing every 2 seconds, being moody, cankles, my feet hurt, getting fat, gaining weight, prenatals, not being able to drink or smoke (cigs) anymore, no longer feeling sexy in anyway shape or form, my husband feeling weird having sex because he thinks she can see him, Acne, being pasty white, my boobs becoming disgustinly large and saggy looking, tiredness, people telling me i look like im going to pop any second, not being able to shave anymore because i cannot see anything over my huge belly, being out of breath, seeing skinny girls, not being able to wear a short skirt because they dont make them in maternity clothes, sweating, skinny girls, heartburn, not being able to sleep well cause i cant get comfortable, not being able to go out and dance anymore, and skinny girls (yea thats the big one)

Oh yeah and not being able to look hot in a bikini this summer.. Dangit!!

Best: feeling baby kick and move around, and knowing that I make it mad when I lie on my back!!!!!! And the fact that hubby and I created this wonderful little person who will be a beautiful blend of the 2 of us!

Worst: sore back, heartburn, shortness of breath (I'm exhausted from just bending over to tie my shoes!), expensive maternity clothes (although I've been getting good at finding the deals!) and need I mention the weight gain *everywhere*???!!!!!!!!!! Evil or
Very Mad

Worst: Feeling like i'm hungover everyday, having to give up drinking and smoking (my two favourites things to do) Laughing

Best...Feeling my girl roll around in there and watching her kick. I love it when my belly moves 'cos I know my daughter is healthy and having a good time in there. Oh and the shopping!

Worst...The worry of something going wrong, when it feels like she's in a straight jacket kicking my bladder. Hormones! If I cry at one more lonely sheep in a field I swear I'm admitting myself to hospital. Lmao!

the worst part.. was everything else.

I dislike it very much too, and I still have 14.5 weeks to go. It's going to be a long summer...not to mention hot.
