Dee, I know what you mean - I have my days where I look at my fingers and wonder who swapped them for chippolatas

I have put on more weight this time around than I did with DD and I was looking good prior to getting pregnant this time as I had lost all the preg weight so I am a bit disappointed that I have put more on - damn morning sickness that only responded to pasta, rice and bread!!

However, although I am waddling and looking incredibly ungraceful I do know that it is only short-term and I won't look like this forever.

Also I recall saying to DP before I got pregnant again that I had really loved being pregnant. He responded "no you didn't, you were uncomfortable and whingy" but I didn't remember that - I do now!! I think we are programmed to forget the bad things about pregnancy so that we do it again. While I'm sure some women do actually love being pregnant there are many of us who only think they did.
