I miss being pregnant

It felt so safe having them inside of me feeling them kick and watching their progress through u/s and watching my tummy get bigger.  Now I'm just back to a regular person.  It hit me so hard at the ob/gyn yesterday seeing all the glowing pregnant women in the waiting room.  I was so jealous of them. 

I told this to DH and he took it to mean that I wanted to have another baby.  uh, not quite!

    I too enjoyed being pregnant...the first time in my life that I was actually proud of my belly!  I loved feeling the babies and watching my stomach move when they moved.  

    That being said, no one tells you how scary it can be to be pregnant.  There were times that I was scared to death and just couldn't wait for them to be outside where I could see them and know that everything was ok with them.

    Most of the time I love it and try to think about how miraculous it really is. However, when I'm vomiting (still) have migraines and carpal tunnel it's hard to think that I'll ever miss this time!

    I know what you mean.  Right after the boys were born I went to the hospital to rent a breast pump.  There were couples there with pillows going in to their childbirth class - I started to cry!  Dh asked what was wrong and I said, "I'm just so happy for them, it's such an exciting time in their life!"  He thought I was crazy, of course.  And to be fair, I did have hormones raging through me but still!  Wink

    As the boys got a little older I was sad at the thought that I might just have that one pregnancy.  Fate intervened and I  am enjoying this pregnancy just as much as my first.

    I do too!!!

    The entire pregnancy I spent worrying about the babies and just praying for the day they would be out so that I could know everything was okay.  And now that they are here I really really miss them being inside...I miss feeling their kicks, and I miss my big belly!!!!

    I actually told my DH this today and that I was sad because I may not be pregnant again....to which he replied "I'm sure you will be pregnant again"...we'll see bout that!

    I miss it everyday! I feel the same way anytime I'm around pg women. There are two pg women at work now and I am just so jealous!

    All the excitement and anticipation....the miracle of having two humans inside your belly....

    There's nothing like being pg...nothing like it in the world!
