I couldn't agree with you more. Too often we feel guilty to express how miserable pregnancy makes us. During my second (and hopefully last) pregnancy, I decided it was ok for me to say "I hate being pregnant!" or "I can't wait to claim my body back"-- I had no morning sickness but I felt like I was trapped in someone else's body and can't even begin to express how uncomfortable I was. I am thankful to have two beautiful children and of course if I could go back I would do it again-- after all, they are the best thing that have ever happened to me. I love being a mother, but I do not enjoy being pregnant. :)
