I'm 8 months pregnant with my first, I'm having a boy and we are extremely excited. I feel like I'm rushing my pregnancy though because all I want to do is get him out of me so I can hold him and love him. Is this weird?
nope. Ive felt that way since 32 weeks but I try and remind myself that ill only have the magic of a first pregnancy once. Try and think about allyour favorite pregnancy moments. It helps
Its totally normal. I'm 33 and a half weeks w/ baby #2 and I just wanna meet her so bad. I did the same with my son. Towards the end when all the big milestones, announcing youre expecting, the baby shower(s), finding out the gender, preparing the nursery, registering for baby stuff, and buying everything for that little one are all over....all that's left to be anxious and excited about is meeting that sweet baby and enjoying them. Then,for some of us, there's also that whole thing of being uncomfortable and just wanna feel normal again. But I try to deal with that part- mostly cause I have no choice...lol. Truly though, I am so excited to meet her. I'm gonna have my one of each....my boy and now my girl. And I'm just so ready to love her and see who she looks like and dress her in all these cute clothes I have with all of her adorable accessories. There's so much to look forward to. And when you're so close to having them....its hard to not want them NOW! So you're not the only one. Its even more exciting for you seeing its your first! That's a great feeling. Congrats and enjoy that beautiful baby!
I've felt like that right from the start, with both pregnancies. I don't enjoy pregnancy at all.
+1. I LOVE my babies. Detest pregnancy. I'm not a person that even kind of enjoys it. I feel guilty about that, because I know there are women who would give anything to be in my shoes. I'm very grateful for the babies I have. I just wish there was a way to fast track the 9 months part I've only got 9 days to my RCS to meet this LO...not that I'm counting haha
Not at all weird! I did the same thing with my first and don't regret it. I was so worried about the after pregnancy stuff but I just wanted to meet him. As soon as he placed him on me it was like all those worries and anxiety were gone. I was just so happy to have him in my arms. This time is the same way. I'm at 31 weeks and am just wishing the summer away so that I can meet my new little man. I think that most woman do this so don't feel bad about it or think you're weird.
not weird. i can't wait for this to be over. i have been trying to enjoy this pregnancy but I can't do the things I want to anymore (physically or otherwise), and i'm super uncomfortable. some random lady came up to me yesterday to tell me that this is the easy part... man did she get a glare! it may be true in many ways but i feel more prepared to have this kid than to feel like an old lady anymore. i'm totally over it.
I'm almost 31 weeks and can identify. I'll admit that it's fun to be able to feel him kick and squirm, and I do think it's a beautiful thing what our bodies can do to nurture human life. With that said, I'm ready to sleep on my stomach again and wear "regular people" clothes. More than any of that, I'm also SO EXCITED to meet this little guy!!
I know so many women who have said things like "I wish I could be pregnant all the time." I'm so excited to be a mommy and love this baby so much already, but I don't feel that way about pregnancy. LOL I don't think there's anything wrong or weird with how you are feeling.
