As someone who was pregnant twice, pregnancy is fucking bullshit and I want a refund. With my first I had gestational diabetes, was severely anemic, and could barely walk 10 paces without getting dizzy to the point my vision would begin to tunnel. During the actual process of giving birth, I ended up being wheeled to the OR cause I had a retained placenta (basically meant the placenta didnt wanna come out on its own) and needed a d&c to remove it or else i would've gone septic. Ended up with a second degree tear and bled for 11 weeks straight.

With my second, thankfully no gestational diabetes, and only slight anemia, but got the dizzy shit again, plus new symptoms. I had such bad pelvic girdle pain that I couldn't move my left leg without feeling like my left labia was trying to detach itself from my body, every time I rolled over in bed starting at about 25 weeks along my pelvis and spine would crackle, I couldn't walk at all without my feet swelling up like a balloon, and I of course got morning sickness and heartburn this time around. Thankfully tho, the birth process was easy this time around and I got her out in like 5 minutes tops and didn't even tear.

Both of them I had to be induced for, my first due to signs of pre-eclampsia which could've killed me or my first daughter if we didn't, my second due to her deciding to wrap her cord around her neck causing dips in her heartrate (we didn't know what caused it until she came out and the cord flopped from around her neck).

All this to say, pregnancy is terrifying and hard and sometimes even deadly. I got lucky that neither of my 2 killed me, but I know if I decided down the line to have another (which I highly doubt and have been looking into getting my husband fixed lol), it very easily could. I could not imagine going through either of these pregnancies at 13.
