Does anyone else feel like things are just going TOO good?

TBH, I do feel I deserve an easier pregnancy after the 10 years and obsense amounts of money that we spent on TTC but I mean, this is really going well. Aside from fairly severe MS, things are going great. Baby is perfect. I am doing just fine. I have never spotted and I have remained VERY positive about the entire pregnancy situation.

Because of this, I feel like I have little to nothing to contribute to BnB these days because all I have to say is, "I'm so happy! Everything is going great!" Also, sometimes I have trouble to relating with other issue and problems that other people are facing and that makes me feel terrible. Like, I feel that it is so unfair that thingss are going so easy for me and so difficult for others.

I am sure this is coming off sounding bad but I am not sure exactly how to explain what I am thinking.

Is there anyone else that feels similar to this?

No, u don't come off as sounding bad. I am the same way...I am pretty happy most of the time, and there are some girls here that are definately having a shitty go, and I feel so much for them. The way I deal with it, is to try to put myself in their shoes and sympathise, but just because I'm not in the same situation as them, I still feel for them and want to support them. But, I don't feel badly that my preg is going as well as it is, and I don't think u should either. Just feel lucky when u look around here, and know that things are going well for u, and hope that that continues!

My situation isn't always so great, but generally, I'm just so excited to be preg that I don't even let the other things bother me(usually)! But, I know how u feel about feeling badly that things are working in ur favour, and yet going so terribly for some others. It's ok...it doesn't mean u still can't be supportive right?

I would have expected it to be worse too!
No spotting no severe MS no real pain.. no horrid mood swings (just the occasional one haha).. it's all going smoothly and i still cant believe how lucky that is!!!

We had a little trouble with conceiving and in the end it worked on the first round of meds.. since then it's all been a breeze but i cant shake the feeling there is a storm ahead somehow haha..

I had a lot of MS and a generally really unpleasant first tri, but it's made me all the more grateful for how awesome this second tri has been. It took us a little while to conceive, but we've been so blissed out ever since. I was convinced that me being overweight would be a big problem, but, touch wood, I've been as healthy as can be and I've only gained 4 lbs so far!

I think until you start trying to conceive or you become pregnant you don't realise how difficult it can be in so many different ways--it can be so hard to get pregnant in the first place, then the possible danger of the first tri, and then all the things that could be wrong with you as the mum or your baby or.... I don't know, any of the million things that could go wrong. This thread reminded me to take time out and be grateful for the lump that is currently trying to kick me in the cervix, so thanks
