I had a fairly easy pregnancy...no morning sickness. In the beginning I was very tired, and that is normal. As my uterus and belly began to grow I had some tenderness just below my belly button...also completely normal. You have a ligament there that needs to stretch.
I enjoyed every moment of being pregnant. I wish I could be pregnant forever. It is so wonderful and beautiful. The experience is different for everyone, but everyone I know says that it was worth it...and I absolutely agree. There is nothing in the world like feeling your child move inside your belly and watching your belly grow. As for labor and delivery, that wasn't bad either. I took it with a grain of salt, I had to do it, why stress and panic about it? I thought of it as I did everything else I had to do...I had to pee everyday, I had to eat, go to work, sleep, and give birth. It was not bad at all. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
I wish you luck and happiness.

At first, I thought I had a stomach ulcer, turned out to be a baby. Ha! The pregnancy was pretty mild, with hardly any morning sickness. The labor was hard, but that is mainly because I and the baby were sick. The whole birthing push push process sucked! So I changed my mind from 6 kids to 4 kids. So it hurt, but not so much that I'd not have 3 more. That first snuggle with my baby was worth every second of agony.

My first child was a scary experience but an enjoyable one. The realization when hyour walking down the corridor to deliever hits you that there is no turning back!!!!HA HE , Its the fear of the unknown, right. Never had a baby and all I heard was horror stories from other women. I decided that listening to others is not a good thing because everyone is different. My last children were twins and that labour was 26 minutes long. NOT KIDDING. When you see your baby and hold them in your arms, you forget the pain of childbirth. It is and still to me the most beautiful thing in the world to experience and I have 5. One is 22, 21, 15 and twins that are twelve. If it hurt that bad I would not have continue to have them!!!!! I can't stand pain!!!!! I would say not to listen to others horror stories. Just my opinion!!!! I remember walking down the corridor to deliver and I heard this women screaming at the top of her lungs and I looked at my doctor and asked if that was really necessary and is that what I'm to expect. He said no!!!! and did I scream like her, NO, it was just a new experience that I never experienced before.

It really depends on your state of mind. Are you prepared for this pregnancy? Is it wanted/unwanted? I personally had a wonderful pregnancy, excluding the first trimester(1st 3months of preg) in which my body was trying to get adjusted to the "foreign" object that now was invading it. I was catered to ,and a miracle was taking place inside my body.......A human life was being developed! And Oh My God after the birth.. a beautiful baby arrived giving me a purpose, a responsibility, unlike no other.....at that point, I knew that whatever I decided to do with my life would not only affect me but this beautiful creature that know existed.... I was deteremined to do my very best...and I did! Now I'm a successful business owner, and I owe my motivation to someone that couldn't yet understamd what motivation was yet..... Beautiful....just Beautiful! Labor isn't pleasant, yes it hurt like heck, but they have meds, so that you don't have to endure any unneccessary pain..... Look to the light at the end of the tunnel......YOUR child whom you're going to mold into something successful, God Bless You, and Good Luck.

pregnancy dint hurt at all child birth on the other hand was bad i mean if you ever have watched the child birth shows they are not exaggerating. but as far as it being worth it words can never describe what watching you child grow and learn is like but it is the best and you have you days when it is the worst but those days are still the best. It is only good when you are ready. i had my first at 16 and i was not ready and I'll tell you what i wish i would of waited because i wish i could have given my first son all the things i can give to my second now. its better when you are ready.

what do you mean how did it feel? and yes it is very very worth it! i have a gorgeous 22 month old boy now and preg with my 2nd...being a mother is such a challenging but rewarding job! i think everyone should experience being a mother, if you cant have kids of your own adopt! also if you meant did the birth hurt well i was in labor for 26 hrs before o had a c section and i honestly faintly remember the uncomfortable pain... my body didnt hurt after i had the baby and i didnt even take the pain medidcne my doc gave me because it ,made me drowsy and i had to beable to get up with my baby boy....when people say "as soon as i saw my baby the pain went away" its true! the hardest thing i think i went through was post partum depression! very very scarey and sad to have thought and felt what i felt at times (i was by myself) so make sure if you decide to have a baby , you have some help there in case times get rough...but over all my kids are my world and life is so worth living becuase of them!

My first pregnancy was morning sickness for the first two months. Then it got good but in the last 2 months it was peeing every 30 minutes. Delivery was hard and painful but just for a few minutes then it was gone. But at the end it's all worth the sickness, peeing and the pain.

I have a problem at first. They did some test. If the test came back bad they would have to take the baby out. Everything came back fine. I had drugs with her. But they gave me the stuff to start contractions they did for a bit and they stop. And she didn't want to come out. I was in the hospital for almost 2 darn weeks. Then on DEC 22 she was finally here. So yeah she was worth it. But i was glad to finally be out of the hospital and see the world outside thank god.

my first pregnancy i felt like i was going 2 die. i was constantly sick 24 hrs a day. i had diabetes, and had fainting spells. my back hurt all the time, and the labour was hell. but now almost 10 years later i know i would never trade that 4 anything else in the world. my second was a walk in the park. no morning sickness, only in labour 1hr and 48 mins. that was 15 months ago.

My first pregnancy was at 14.... my whole body hurt the entire time, I was sick everyday all day for the first 6 months. I was constipated and couldn't eat and it just sucked. I don't think it was worth it at all.... but he is a sweet child. Best wishes
