3rd Trimester

What's it going to be like when LO's born...

and we won't feel them moving inside of us anymore? I have been thinking about this for the last few days and it makes me so sad!!! I feel like there's such a strong bond right now, and I feel what she feels. It's strange and I know I'm going to love having an outside baby, but sometimes I don't want the pregnancy to end!

Anyone else feel this way or am I just weird?

    lol I meant MENTALLY... I know PHYSICALLY I'm ready for it to end already and know it will only get worse lol...

     

  • Having your body back to yourself is pretty nice. (Well if you at BFing parts of you are on loan for ahwile)

     But the first time I got out of the house after delivering. and I realized I was totally alone.. . . .it was kinda depressing but at the same time, kinda refreshing. All mom's take take it differently.

  • I think the excitement and maternal instinct kick in and it's really okay- the euphoria of delivery and holding your baby take care of it..  DH thought I would have PPD with DD b/c I LOVED every second of being pregnant with her- from getting her in to getting her out, it really was P&R for me.  I didn't have PPD, and am certain with the twins I will be THRILLED have them out.  I definitely had to break myself of rubbing my belly, though- it just looks weird on a chubby but not pg girl!

  • With DD I thought that I would really miss feeling her kicks inside of me but It was so exciting to meet her when she was born and I was so busy that I didn't even think about the fact that she wasn't inside anymore.
  • DD is 5 months old tomorrow and I still feel "phantom kicks."  Strangest thing ever!  Its like the taps and bumps from early on when I could first start feeling solid movements during pg.   And I LOVE having Lillian here now.  Life is so different but wonderful.  I'll tell you what, there are days when she's being a PITA that I wish I could stuff her back inside but I wouldn't trade her falling asleep on my chest or getting her out of her crib in the morning when she's smiling ear to ear and so happy to see her mommy for anything.
