Sorry Mood
Sunday, September 27, 2009 | A Breaking News story

I just read what I posted a little while ago and I am so sorry girls.. I know most of you would give your right arm (or more) to have acid reflux or feel like crap.. sometimes i forget as crazy as that seems.. So .. I am sorry!  I shouldn't complain and I know better. 

 

It is crazy to think that I am already forgetting about the journey to get here, but maybe in some little way that will give some of you hope, no matter how hard it was to make it through, once you do you really do forget about that pain.   I have no idea if that helps, but I hope it can in some small way.  I love all of you so much for helping me through everything and I could not have done it without you so I would hate to make anyone feel bad.

 

Anyway.. I am rambling I know... just know that I wll always care.

 

PS.. I think i may be going a little crazy! :)

    I just read your first journal entry and I don't think it sounded like you were complaining at all! I just told my DH the other night that I am thankful a million billion trillion times over, but that the constant nausea is really getting to me....there's really nothing that can prepare our bodies for the changes we go through during pregnancy, even if we did have to jump through hoops to get here! Hang in there...you're almost at the finish line! :)

    You were not complaining, its perfectly okay to say you have some acid reflux! :) Some of us may not be pregnant yet, but we are sympathetic to others not feeling well no matter what the cause. You are not going crazy! :)

    Shannon you are completely entitled to allow yourself a little moan now & then! No apologies needed! Yes, I would like to be where you are but I have no illusions that it will be plain sailing all the way & even when baby comes, you are allowed to have bad days..... and if you want to moan on here, I'll support you through that too!
    Lots of love - Zed

    Give yourself a break. Acid reflux sucks and you are allowed to complain. This is and always will be a safe place to share your feelings. I am so excited and happy for you. Sophia will be here before you know it!!!!

    You are doing so great! Pregnancy can be the most challenging physically and mentally so you have every right to relieve some of that pain through venting. I really wish it wasn't so torturous to get to having our children but it seems like you are taking it like a hero. No need to apologize, I'm happy to hear news whether it's venting or celebrating. Take care of you and baby. I am so excited that you will be holding Sophia in less than 2 weeks!

    I agree give yourself a break. You have a right to complain about acid reflux, it doesn't mean you're not grateful to be where you are. You're so close!

    Shannon, you have every right to feel overwhelmed right now. I remember how awful I felt after writing posts like that & thinking about my dear friends who were still struggling. You are right though, the pain will seem like a distant memory when you are finally a mommy. It always gave me hope when others got PG & had healthy babies ~ I am sure you are doing that for others now. Relax, rest, and prepare yourself for the journey of your life! xxxx

    I feel your pain sister! haha you took the words right out of my mouth. Just because we say we don't feel well, doesn't mean we aren't grateful. You are allowed to vent like every other pregnant woman out there! We are almost through Shanny!!

    I agree with the others...you have every right to vent or complain! First of all, it's not like that's all you do, and secondly, being pregnant (especially towards the end) is NOT easy!!! Even though we had to work extra hard to get there, it's just as hard being preggo for us too! And I think everyone knows you are grateful. I feel like a total complainer now, because mommyhood, as wonderful as it is and as grateful as I am for it, it's a whole new set of challenges. Sometimes the hormones and lack of sleep compound the frustrations of feeling like I don't know what the crap I'm doing! So it doesn't end, but like I said, it doesn't make you or me any less thankful for the wonderful blessings we have! You're so close!! I can't wait to see pictures of that little baby girl!
