Babies: 9 - 12 Months

I know it's not Friday...but I have a confession

Sometimes I want to be PG again, just to give birth again.  Part of it is that I want a do-over.  I want the homebirth I didn't get with DS.  And part of it is that it was just a wonderful experience and I really saw how much DH loves me and cares for me...he was AMAZING.  I loved being PG too...even with the mood swings and all the crazy stuff. 

When I was PG, one of my co-workers said she loved being PG and if it wasn't for the ended up with kids part, she would have done it like 10 times. At the time I didn't understand, I loved being PG, but wanted to meet the baby and the whole point is to have kids right?  Well Iget it now.  Being PG is so wonderful...your baby right there with you all the time, you don't have to share it with anyone, all it's needs are met automatically, you don't need to baby proof, etc.  And its just a wonderful feeling.   With kids, it's hard to get a minute to yourself and you have to watch them like hawks (at least at this age) and then youthink about how they are going to be when they grow up...especially when you see these stupid teens...its just nice when they are safe and sound inside...

I totally have the baby  bug though...I hope I can hold off for a couple more years though.

    I know what you mean, I loved being pregnant and there are lots of things about it that I miss. That said, I love have ankles again :)

  • I am with you! My friends think I am crazy for saying I loved being pregnant but I did and would do it a million times over to get DS. I am starting to get baby fever & DH and I have started talking about baby #2 already! ;) so excited!
  • I had a pretty easy pregnancy so I agree with you on that.  But, I really don't want any more babies!

  • Sadly, subsequent pregnancies just never have that same magic--for you or for anyone in your life. The shine totally wears off:(

  • If it werent so long...but 40 weeks? I was so swollen and hot and huge in summer. It stopped being cute around May for me.
  • I am right there with you.  I LOVED being pregnant, had a very easy and happy pregnancy and enjoyed childbirth....although I would like to do it without pitocin and see how far I can make it without an epidural.  I want the experience of my water breaking on its own and rushing to the hospital.  LOL.  I also have a very easy baby and hope the next is just like him.

    This is me!!!! I miss my baby when we are not together and I have a hard time sharing with anyone except DH. Yeah I am that mom Big Smile

  • If I could relive the moment I met DD at least once a day for the rest of my life, I'd be a very happy person lol. You can keep the pregnancy and labor, I just want that moment we locked eyes.
