seeing pictures of babies

4littlebears · October 2014

I'm seeing pictures of babies, and 1 girl I know just had hers and another will be having hers soon. Makes me want to hold my baby right now. Except not really, giving birth to a 26 week old baby would not be a good thing. But I would love to fast forward to January right now! Anyone else feeling the urge to turn forward time tonight?

I felt that way with my first. This time around is the complete opposit; it's going way too fast.

MusicFanatic · October 2014

YES please!!!!!!!!!!

But change it to December

I'm 200% done and ready to meet my baby girl. I have a few FB friends that gave birth within the past few weeks and have posted lots of newborn pics :x love!

Me!

Edvent · October 2014

Yes! Bring on January! Ready to hold my squishy and have him not sharing the inside of my body!

4littlebears · October 2014

Samiantha101, I keep going back and forth! Tonight I'm just really wanting to hold my baby I guess!

@MusicFanatic, bring on December for you! I saw that little coffee blurb in your siggy on a blog today, I thought it was really funny!

@Edvent, yes to not sharing my body anymore too! lol My little one is so strong, a lot of his or her kicks actually hurt.

Glad I'm not the only one

I saw that there I only have 12 weeks + left and it made me super anxious. With our recent move, I haven't been working so I am getting antsy for Jan to come! Can't wait :-)

This exactly

I feel both ways. Like, it's going WAY too fast, and this baby will be here before I know it, so I'm freaking out, but on the other hand, I really want to hold my squishy in my arms already! So I guess I'm ok with the time going too quickly

Josie400 · October 2014

I go back and forth with this feeling. Some days I just can't wait, and other days it hits me just how much everything is going to change (in a good way definitely! But still, nervewrecking).

luckylady18 · October 2014

I've had lots of friends have babies recently and I also read some of the birth stories from the Oct14 board - man - those ladies have had some CUTE babies! It made me totally want to fast forward to January. I'm super super excited!!

4littlebears · October 2014

@bookworm92, I bet. This has got to be different for birth moms. I hope time slows down a bit for you.

I absolutely can not wait to hold my baby girl. At the same time, I am absolutely terrified haha.

nlscroggins · October 2014

i'm in a weird spot since i only found out i'm gonna be a mom the last week of september haha. i simultaneously want time to go at warp speed so i can see baby boy, and slow down completely so we can be as prepared as possible!

cgkinsey · October 2014

I can feel both ways, with only 9 weeks left till Christmas I become panicked that I'm not prepared then I think once Christmas is here it's sooo close to meet our peanut!

TXUltraRunner · October 2014

I'm not ready. No!! Let it bake as long as possible, I need more time. You'd think after three years of IF, I'd be ready but I'm scared. At some point I stopped thinking beyond getting pregnant and now that I am, I am not sure what to do with a baby- I've never changed a diaper even.

BackseatDriver · October 2014

I'm mixed. I'm excited to have her and to no longer be pregnant, but I'm dreading the sleepless nights and worried bout managing two little ones. I think what scares me most is that I used to nap during the day when my son napped, but I know that won't be an option this time around.

I'm kind of mixed on it, like everyone else here lol
I want to finally experience having a baby and be done with the achey muscles and weird sleepless nights and stop worrying about delivery day, but I also want to take my time and spend as much time as I can with him; even if he does feel like he's gonna kick a hole in my stomach, some days

brickcitylove · October 2014

Nope. He can stay put until his due date, TYVM.

We are in a holding pattern with our living situation while the house is getting renovated from a fire that happened next door (it's a rowhome). They haven't actually started working yet because of permit issues. I'm fairly confident they will need as much time as possible to get everything done and us back in the house.

britb618 · October 2014

I'm super excited! I'm fairly certain this is our last so I want to appreciate the kicks etc. and I definitely want to savor this time with my daughter being an only child for only a few more months....BUT I WANT TO MEET JACK

and I want maternity leave. like now. But it definitely is different then with my first pregnancy, I feel like with the first child you CAN'T WAIT to be a mom and meet your child, but with the second (at least for me) you are a bit preoccupied with your first still, so you are a bit more patient. (But only a bit

I actually googled "newborn photos" because I wanted to look at more babies. My husband and I are such creeps at the grocery store, looking at all the kids. We can't wait!

My husband does this, too. I have to remind him to not be that creepy dude who grins and stares longingly at babies in the mall/park/grocery store. Of course he is simply imagining our own little ones, but strangers don't know this!

luciddreamer106 · October 2014

I'm really excited and want time to speed up a little. But, I still have so much to get done!

It is a bit scary having your first! It doesn't matter how long or what road you have to take to get there, I don't think. Hell, it's terrifying for me having my 4th! You'd think it'd be no big deal to me at this point. But I'm already outnumbered, and my dh works away from home sometimes for as long as a week. I'm super scared I won't be able to handle 4 on 1 defense. I keep going back and forth, I just love the squishiness and baby smell. And that thread on Just wait... didn't help, lol. Good stuff

honeybeee3 · October 2014

I am feeling a whole mix of emotions when it comes to this. Sometimes, I want my due date to be tomorrow so I can hold him, smother him with kisses and most of all, smell him - I LOVE the smell of a newborn baby! Other times, I feel like this pregnancy is going way too fast and I just want time to slow down. There's so much left to do still! Plus, I want to savor every moment I have while it's still just me and my DS and enjoy life before I have 2u2(eeeek!)

luckylady18 · October 2014

After reading @emmyg65's comment, I googled imaged "newborn babies." Oops. Too cute. Except this one...this one is weird...
