Pregnancy - Love or Hate

People have been asking me lately if I like being pregnant overall. I think this is such an interesting question and it's one that I never think to ask others who are. I have to say that the whole experience is fascinating, and I love embracing it, but I have to admit that there are times where I don't like being pregnant.

Here, I have a list:
Hormonal ups and downs.
Missing my pre-pregnancy body.
Feeling super-full after eating, and like I'm going to explode.
Sex is difficult.
People thinking you're "disabled."
The achy hips when I wake up b/c it's not comfortable sleeping on my belly or back.
The itchy boobs and belly.
The fact that I stopped running at 4 months, and now can't run. Can't wait to run!(this is my own fault, but now I know.)

I know, I sound miserable - I'm not. Here's a list of why I love it:

I've been pressing a hard spot on my belly, which I think is the baby's bottom and his whole body moves. I can't help but giggle.
I love it that the extra progesterone my body produces keeps me dazed.
It's fun when people want to touch my belly.
Yoga feels even more amazing.
It's nice when people look at you and smile.
The time does go by quickly.
Imagining who or what the baby will like.
Craving foods that are good for you, like oranges.
Totally enjoying food I shouldn't be eating.

This is what I'm feeling right now - all of these things. It's all because of this little love child my husband and I have created. Totally worth it.
