Miss being pregnant

StefMurph · October 2013

I delivered 9/27 and am absolutely in love with my baby. I have PCOS and after 9 years of no birth control, we had a surprise, yet welcome pregnancy. I am a FTM at 35, but have raised my stepson since he was 5. He'll be 18 on 10/10. I choose to have my tubes tied and after a hellacious labor that led to emergency c section when Callie's heart rate dropped. I'm sitting staring at my 8 day old baby and miss feeling her move inside me. I know many of you ladies are ready to deliver and see your precious babies, but cherish those moments of them on the inside. It's an amazing miracle.

She's beautiful! I remember missing feeling DD moving around inside me once she was born. I wonder if I'll miss it again this time!

I hear this is very common. I also have PCOS, and took years to conceive. I'm cherishing each day with her still inside, just in case I never get to experience this again. I can't wait to meet her though. So excited!

I am a ftm too and as much as I can't wait to meet my son I can already tell I may miss being pregnant. We share our bodies with them for so long it makes sense to miss that when it is suddenly gone!
Your daughter is beautiful!

This post makes me stabby. Nope. I'm ready for her to be outside...and am contemplating hiring a surrogate for the second child.

What a thoughtful reminder, thank you! I'm uncomfortable and so excited to meet my LO but I'm going to take more time to appreciate her rolling around and being all mine today!

This is my first and only pregnancy. We have fertility issues and are getting older. I love lazy mornings of just feeling my babies swirl around in my tummy. However, I am ready to be done (in 18 days). My body is tired and I am mentally exhausted from 10 weeks of bedrest and worry.

After both of my pregnancies I can honestly and truly say I don't miss being pregnant at all. I love my outside babies and although pregnancy is a miracle and I'm so thankful I could conceive, I certainly do not miss it!

I don't love being pregnant- it fact I think it sucks. I thought when I had DD#1 that I would not miss being pregnant. But I did miss it. Not the horrible parts, but just feeling her move and my big bump.

Same here!

I actually hated pregnancy with my last and I hate it this time too. I can't wait to be done. Although I know those PP hormones can be tricky little buggers and try their best to convince me otherwise.

How I feel anymore. Yes I want him to come when he's all ready, but...

I am ready to be done but at the same time I know that I will miss my adorable bump. I mean it may sound vain but my as ugly as my face current is (pasty white and flakey) my body is pretty darn cute

I suppose I should add I had an amazing pregnancy - especially for being high risk due to AMA, hypertension and a thyroidectomy. I only gained 7 pounds and wore most of my prepregnancy clothes the entire time. I'm a bigger girl anyway. I completely understand those of you who have had morning sickness, achy ness and other things to make your pregnancy uncomfortable wanting to be done or not missing it.

I don't miss being pregnant. I was ready for it to end and even though I haven't gotten much sleep I'm enjoying my son way more on the outside.
