I hear you.
I had a problem pregnancy from start to finish, was put on bed rest 24/7 except for doctor visits, and was warned that I could lose the baby at any time. I was also in a lot of pain and couldn't take pain meds. AND I was sick to my stomach the entire time, and was put on meds that made my favorite distraction -- reading -- impossible.
I couldn't WAIT for those 9 months to be over!
Thanks for writing this.
