Unexpected joys of pregnancy

ourlittledarling · May 2015

I know most of us have some hardships and difficulties through pregnancy, but what are some of the unexpected joys you have experienced or are currently experiencing this pregnancy? Personally I have found a deep sense of calm and contentment. Just going outside and smelling the fresh air makes me so happy. I am even more in love with my husband and I really enjoy seeing my belly move and having loved ones hug, touch and talk to my little one.

Excited to hear your joys and positive surprises.

I love feeling the baby move all of the time & I especially love that our LO is even more active when I put my hand on my belly, it makes me feel like he or she knows my touch already!

It also makes me adore my husband even more. Seeing glimpses of his softer side more frequently makes me fall in love with him all over again. (He's a rugged country boy, so these moments are few & far between.)

After having a baby with trisomy 13 && two miscarriages I never thought I would be able to have a healthy baby. I moved on in life met someone new && now I'm 7 months pregnant with a healthy baby girl

confirmed through maternit21 testing. I couldn't be more joyful.!

I'm excited that she'll know my voice. I got a chance to talk to her today uninhibited. it feels good.

I've thoroughly enjoyed all of my pregnancy. Maybe I'm a lucky one (or maybe others who seem to moan all the time need to count their lucky stars more?!). I feel very blessed, love feeling the kicks, watching my tummy grow and sharing all of this with my husband who has been beyond amazing. What an incredible experience it is growing a miracle.

I got to see my baby girls face during our 3D ultrasound on Friday; it was amazing. She looks just like her dad and it brought so much happiness that I witnessed our love come to life.

The relationship between my mom and I and the relationship between my mother in law and I have gotten a lot better. My husband and I are closer then ever, and just having this opportunity is amazing

I've always been a little chubby and for the first time in my life I look at myself with a lot of positivity. I love my bump, love feeling the baby move and really love my partner. I've wanted a baby for a long time and frequently thank him for giving me this opportunity. He's also super encouraging about me being a SAHM which I am over the moon about!

I love feeling the kicks and movements she makes. I'm going to miss that after she's here. I've had an uneventful pregnancy, thank God, so most of my experiences have been great ones! ...even when I peed at school while throwing up...TWICE! LOL Hey, my little princess will be worth it!

All this pregnancy I've felt like I'm in a cocoon, even when it's been a difficult pregnancy I feel so safe and happy carrying my baby. I didn't enjoy my first pregnancy because I was 18 and not expecting it at all and my postpartum depression was all about feeling guilty about it and about considering a miscarriage so this pregnancy I've enjoyed it a lot, and it makes me so happy to see my son touching, singing and talking to my belly, I kinda feel like I healed that guilt by making him so happy about me being pregnant.
