Does anyone else miss being pregnant? Even when your child/baby is still so young?

Eliza - posted on 10/05/2009

Yes, you're not alone. But I also know how important it is to have a break... so you just have to try to keep that in the back of your mind.

I definitely miss being pregnant! My son is 7 weeks and growing so fast =( I felt at my best pregnant and loved feeling him moving inside of me. The last few weeks of pregnancy was really uncomfortable though.

Yes my baby is almost a toddler (She was born November 6th, 2008) and I really miss being pregnant. However for me to have another right now would be beyond crazy.

I really do miss being pregnant. I loved it and I was confortable being pregnant. My babies are 9 and 7.

Beth - posted on 10/04/2009

yes! my son is only 8 weeks old, and i felt the healthiest when i was pregnant! i know it logically we can't have another child added to the current mix; but maybe again one day in the future once we get more settled into our roles as parents.

hell yes! my daughter is 13 days old and i ALREADY miss being pregnant. why? it's very simple it was a lot easier when i needed 2 get out da out the house now i to double da things i do to get ready since i have to get her ready to. i miss rubbing my belly i missed talking in plural everything was a "us" now it's just old boring me. and i definetely miss the way strangers (4rm young teens to adults) would go out of their way to old doors for me or letting me skip in line and etc. and now all i feel is pain from the stiches everything just hurts. THE FIRST WEEK IS THOUGH!

I LOVED being pregnant!! I have 3 babies, well, not babies anymore -- my youngest is 4! -- and it got better each time! I miss it SOO much! All of it (ok, not morning sickness)!!!

I really miss it, Im with Patti I think its because Im not sure if Im done either....I feel sad to think that my last preg could have been my last...

Patti - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes for sure. I often think it's because I feel like my family isn't complete. I've spoken to a handful of women and they all told me that a women knows when they are done having children. So, I often think it's because I don't feel I'm done.

Yes - my bub is only 9 wks old but I want to be pregant again. I had an emergancy C/Section for his birth that I feel could have been avoided so I am going to have a HBAC next time and I am so eager to try that.

That was my favorite part of  all of it was nursing and being responsible for someone elses life inside of you. It's amazing I would have had alot more if we could.

Cassandra - posted on 10/03/2009

Honestly I don't miss being pregnant one bit. I was excited for the first's like the first kick, the first butt in my rib cage but I was miserable, I was huge I couldn't do anything I had a condition that made it worse in many ways so it could of been different if that wasn't in play but I felt weird in my own skin when I was pregnant.

Charlie - posted on 10/03/2009

I loved being pregnant and i do miss it , i had a VERY easy pregnancy no symptoms at all just a growing belly !
My friend is pregnant and i am so clucky , LOL.

I miss being pregnant and i have two kids a son thats 19 months and a daughter thats 2 months old. I loved know that i had a little body inside of me kicking and growing. Both of my pregnancys were very easy. I never got morning sickness or barely any stretch marks.

yeh i was the same never had stretch marks or morning sickness.

though i did suffer from extreme tiredness and aches (especially back ache and i constantly got braxton hicks in the last months) im a migrane suffererer too so in the first few months i had them cuz of the summer weather.

but other than that my pregnancy was pretty good.

Sarah - posted on 10/03/2009

yes! i absolutely miss my bump and my son kicking me in the womb.

i get so envious of pregnant friends and have to hear all the gossip .. my son is only 8months old and im definately not ready for another but i always dream about what it would be like to be pregnant again and stuff. ..

if i ever have another i want a home birth this time as i had a completely natural hospital delivery with my son so i coped .. lol

Yes !! I miss it very much so. My daughter is 3 years old now and I've been wanting to get pregnant again since she was about a year old. I don't know what it is. My man and I are talking about it but I can't wait until we actually start trying. I had a pretty wonderful pregnancy and fairly easy delivery and i can't wait to do it all over again !!

Hun, I sure hope you and your s/o work out the step children issue before you go making another life :(

Dahlia - posted on 10/03/2009

Sometimes, my youngest is 12 (I'm 48)...so when I get to that awww I want to be pregant...I think are you kidding, changing diapers, carrying a diaper bag, finding a sitter so hubby and I can go out...I wake up and will wait for grandkids so I can give the baby back to mommy...lol

Erica - posted on 10/03/2009

My daughter just turned 2 and I've been begging my husband to have another! I miss it sooooo much!

Sarah - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes! I miss knowing where she is at all times and that she is ok... I am a working mom so she is with my in laws on the days her dad has to work day light shift and they like to take her places... Then when I see someone else who is pregnant, it makes me miss it more.

Paula - posted on 10/03/2009

i totally miss being pregnant. i loved the feeling of the whole thing. i cant wait to have another one.

Schanna - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes! I had a very hard first pregnancy and still missed it until just now. (I just found out I'm pregnant again.) My first is 2 and a half years old. I'd love to be professionally pregnant but my body and my husband don't agree!

Angela - posted on 10/03/2009

Although, I don't miss the morning sickness but definitely miss being pregnant. I have two kids one is 7 years old and the other one is 21 months..I sometimes tell my Husband, I wish I can just put my lil girl back in my stomach again so she doesn't have to grow up so fast =)

Carol - posted on 10/03/2009

That is really normal you must of had an awesome pregnacy. It just seems like an empty feeling....Congrats on your baby tc Carol

Katherine - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes, I did miss being pregnant after my son was born. He's now 13 months. Still miss it. I think some people do miss it if the pregnancy was good.

Jackie - posted on 10/03/2009

Ahhh, nope!!!

Joy - posted on 10/03/2009

Oh yes for sure!!!! My eldest is 2.5yrs, my daughter is just 2months and i miss feeling her move around and her kicks.. When she was born i had the snip done, and when I see or read baby mags i actually get emotional knowing that i wouldn't be able to be preggies again...

Bianca - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes !! I miss it very much so. My daughter is 3 years old now and I've been wanting to get pregnant again since she was about a year old. I don't know what it is.

Anita - posted on 10/03/2009

i loved being pregnant not just because i actually had sleep but because of the bond that grew so fast and i love the kicking and hiccups lol

Jennifer - posted on 10/03/2009

at times i miss being pregnant...but towards the end of that pregnancy, i wanted her out...the lease was up! But there is nothing like feeling your baby grow and move inside of you. As far as getting pregnant again, i can wait!

Leann - posted on 10/03/2009

Absolutely miss it. I loved being pregnant. I loved to watch her move around. I was just amazed. If I wasn't as old as I am I would love to be pregnant again.

Natalie - posted on 10/03/2009

yes it was great first time round, expecting second baby now and everything is going wrong- definately wont miss being pregnant this time.

Ashley - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes! My son just turned 6 months old on Sept. 23rd and I already have baby fever SOOO bad! I know it's not the time, but man I miss everything from the pregnancy and kicks, to the anticipation of the gender and birthday! I also miss all the decorating and picking things out. You're definitely not alone!

Angela - posted on 10/03/2009

Yes I loved being pregnant!

Jennifer - posted on 10/03/2009

I missed it with every one of my kids. My pregnancies were all very easy, and my youngest is 3 and a half - I had a tubal ligation, but still secretly would love to have a little one growing inside me again. I loved the movement, the hiccups, just knowing that I was creating something so prescious and beautiful was amazing to me. As long as you are not too sad about it, it is natural.

Ashley - posted on 10/02/2009

nope. dont miss it even a little bit. i hate being uncomfortable. the last 3 months are the worst. i'm also high risk so ihave to have a lot more ultrasounds than normal and i hated them. i'd get sick from lying on my back and dreaded every one. i was never so happy as when my water broke 2 wks early. i love my boys to death and wouldnt change them for anything but if i could skip through the pregnancy and go right to newborns i'd def have more kids

Shirley - posted on 10/02/2009

YES, I LOVE being pregnant, I would have 1 every year until I am 36 if I could lol. Thats the reason I got pregnant only 6 months after having my 1st daughter, and now that my 2nd daughter is 5 months old I am tempted again, but the only thing is we need to sell our place and buy a bigger house if we are to have a 3rd.............. I better wait a year or 2 this time :)

Erin - posted on 10/02/2009

I missed being pregnant after having my first son, but I think it was because I knew I was having another one and I just felt fat! The baby bump is WAY more attractive then after the baby!!! But now after having my 2nd one 2 wks ago I'm cool! But then again I don't necessarily plan on having another one and sure it was real nice having the baby kick and all, but I really like having my baby to hold more!!!

Kelsey - posted on 10/02/2009

Yes very much soo.
Im feeling so brrody at the moment. My daughters 5 months old and is getting to the age where she's a handfull in her self! But my sister's just had a baby and its made me want another so bad! I loved my pregnancy i had a terrible time but the result is worth every bit of pain. We've discussed another child but i don't know. I think my daughter would be pushed out

Jodi - posted on 10/02/2009

I missed being pregnant the moment my daughter was taken to get checked over in the hospital! I missed knowing where she was every single second, of knowing what kind of miracle was going on in my stomach, feeling her kick and move, I miss the big belly with a baby inside. I miss it all and my hubby and I are considering having another, even though ours is only 7 months old! Yes, I miss being pregnant, I can't wait for it again!!!!

PAM - posted on 10/02/2009

I PERSONALLY DON'T, WITH ALL 3 OF MY CHILDREN I WAS SICK THE WHOLE TIME

Jill - posted on 10/02/2009

I must be abnormal but i was so looking forward to labor/delivery becuase it was the end of pregnancy. He's 7 wks old now and i don't miss it all!! I am just in awe that some people like pregnancy. Guess that's why they say everyone's different.

Holly - posted on 10/02/2009

Yes i missed being pregnant a month after i had my lil one! just being so close to her and feeling her move :) i wouldnt mind having another one soon, if i can get my partner to agree!! :)

Rachael - posted on 10/02/2009

I do miss being pregnant, especially immediately after, because it is so special to feel the baby moving around inside. Plus there's that sense of "separation anxiety" linked to baby blues! Being pregnant is such a special experience!

Doris - posted on 10/02/2009

NO I HAVE 7 Kids and 15 Grand Kids

Brenda - posted on 10/02/2009

I did at first, but I often think that maybe I had the baby blues. But as soon as they are active, and they have interests, you're be ok with it.
