I know it seems like a strange question but does anyone else miss their pregnancy bump? My little one is 6 weeks old and I love her to bits but I get quite sad about not having a bump to touch! I miss watching her kick and stuff lol! just wandered if I was the only one!!

Dear Lord NO!!! The only thing I miss about being pregnant (and I am ONLY writing this because the hubs is snipped), is the gentle kicks. Something that only I ever had with them...a feeling ONLY another mom can describe and even then...you can't really. That being said...I hated every other part of pregnancy. BOTH times.

yes I missed my naby bump. I felt phantom kicks for about six months after she was born. It was amazing having her in my arms but I missed having her with me all the time where i knew that she was safe all the time. I loved the way that I looked when I was pregnant. It was like everything fit the way it was supposed to because of the bump. Ah sigh.

My daughter is 3 nearly 4 and I have missed being pregnant and having the bump forever. I loved being pregnant and it was so cool feeling her kick and move about. The first time her dad felt her kick, it frightened the life out of him lol. I would love and can't wait to get pregnant again and will probably miss the second bump as much as the first.x

I don't miss it at all! I felt huge and glad to be without it again.

My baby was a preemie too. I had a bump for a month and a half before she came. My bump came out more in the last 2 weeks I was in the hospital trying not to have her come out yet. I really wanted to be big and pregnant... But I'll settle for having my little bump again

Lol. I miss it so much! I actually lost weight being pregnant and had a little bump but I looked so pretty. I loved being pregnant. I loved my body so much and I hadn't felt that way about my body for a long time before getting pregnant. I can't wait to get pregnant again so that I can be skinny again and then have my little bump that moves around!! My fiance and I are actually thinking of trying again in the months of may through july.

it's strange isn't it...when we get towards the end of our pregnancy we would do anything to hurry them along...and when they're here we want them back! lol!!
