I can sympathise. My second pregnancy was absolutely brutal. I was sick the whole 9 months, I became dehydrated at one point and had to stay and bed and use suppositories to stop the vomiting, the baby was low and was pressing on some artery which made me almost pass out every day starting in my 5th month (not good when you have a job where you stand on your feet for hours on end), in my 7th month I developed what's called pubic symphosis (spelling ?) where my pubic bone started to separate from the pressure of the baby's head. At times I couldn't even walk the pain was so bad. I swore I wasn't ever going to get pregnant again and so far I haven't. Sometimes I see a baby and saw "aww, I want another one." Then I say, "what am I thinking?"
All in all, the pain and troubles were worth it. I have two wonderful children I wouldn't trade for the world.
Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy, I hope it gets better for you.

Tests (Reply to this comment)

I'm glad I'm not the only one that had fun with blood tests! I was told to "remember" to let the nurse draw blood from my right arm, since that was the "good" one. I nearly passed out after she jabbed me once in the left, twice in the right, and had to take it from my wrist! Talk about painful!!!

... wish you the best with the rest of your pregnancy. The rough times can be pretty rough ... but in the end the good out-weighs the bad ... or at least it did for me! Try to look on the bright side of things and enjoy what you can!

Have a SUPER day!
