Pregnant after a Loss

starting to get sad...

It's really hitting me that this is my final week of being pregnant. In a way it doesn't seem real. I am going to miss my belly and the closeness of my baby girl. Never again will she be this close to me. I love carrying her everywhere I go and feeling her squirm within. It will be amazing when she is in our arms but there is nothing like this feeling. I smile everytime I look down at my tummy...such a precious time.

  • I was the same way with DD. The first time i took bath after she was born was so strange because she would go crazy in there while the water was running. But it is so much better to hold them in your arms

  • I feel the same way, I want to cherish every single second of being pregnant.

  • I had these feelings really strongly a couple weeks ago. One night in the bathtub I was just watching him move my belly and I started sobbing, realizing that my pregnancy was almost over. I've loved it, and I, too, will miss having him so close.

    I still feel that way, but the feelings have mostly passed - I'm so ready now. Today's my last day of work til January, and I so hope he comes soon!!

  • I really feel that way too. This time next week I will more than likely be prepping for my LO's arrival.  It's wild to think that...

  • Aw, your post made me tear up.  I think I?ll feel the same way, I?ve really enjoyed every aspect of this pregnancy so far, even the tough parts since they are worth every moment.  It?s nice to hear you say this, so many of my IRL friends end up whining and complaining at the end, it?s nice to hear a true appreciation of the pregnancy.

  • I am right there with ya.  As much as I want to meet her, I think I am going to have a really hard time not being pregnant anymore.
