I was looking at Jacob's baby pics from when he was born and already miss the newborn phase and am finding myself thinking how nice it would be to be pregnant again. I find this completely nuts since I didnt enjoy being pregnant past the 5th month. Everyone told me that I'd forget about the sleepless, uncomfortable nights with heart burn and a huge belly but I didnt believe them. Am I crazy? I think...yes.
Re: I want to be pregnant again, maybe.
I loved being pregnant and can't wait to be again. But since our 2nd baby will most likely be our last, I also want to wait a little while, since I know I will miss it.
You aren't crazy though
(or if you are, you aren't alone!)
I can't stop thinking of baby number two either. We didn't plan for DD and prolly didn't want kids, but now all I can think of are more kids! I feel so nostalgic thinking of the day I delivered, etc. DD was a great easygoing baby and has always slept well... so we think baby #2 might be a regular/ normal baby that actually cries and fights napping haha
I should add we can't have another kid until DH is done with his doctorate so that I can quit my job... it would be way too much to have two kids right now with our commute situation.
I don't think you're crazy because there are tons of women who want their kids close in age and love pregnancy.
I loved being pregnant and enjoyed every moment of it even when I felt really uncomfortable. I'd love to experience it again some day but right now, DH and I just want to enjoy E and then think about it a few years from now.
Aside from the financial aspect, I feel like it is a lot to put my body through now and I still need to lose baby weight!
