So, this might be a little controversial but I wish so much that people who are pregnant did not complain quite so loudly or in front of me. I know I'll never be pregnant so I can't really say what it's like, presumably for some it does feel like the end of the world but for me (and many other women) I would do anything to be in their shoes. Pregnancy is not an illness and it does end. The end is a wonderful baby. At the minute there is a lady in my office who is 6 months pregnant. Each day she complains that she can't reach her toes, things are only going to get worse, she aches and gets tired easily. I just wish she would be quiet. I appreciate that everyone needs to have a moan sometimes maybe people just need to be a little sensitive towards where they do it. If you are complaining in a large office of girls, there may well be someone who would do anything to go through 'your suffering'. In the main, I've totally accepted that I'll never give birth. I barely think about it. In the past, hearing yet another friend was pregnant used to hurt so much. Those days are long gone. This is one thing I just can't accept though. Children are absolute gifts. If you are lucky enough to be able to have them, don't complain about the discomfort they cause you before they even arrive.
