Not Baby Fever, Pregnancy Fever

I don't have baby fever because I have a 4 month old baby. I do have pregnancy fever. I want to be pregnant so badly! I had a c-section so I can't get pregnant for the next 2 years and we can barely afford my little dude as it is so I can't have another baby but I really miss feeling the baby inside me. I was sick my entire pregnancy and complained all the time but now that my little guy is born I miss it. Anyone else feel this way?

Re: Not Baby Fever, Pregnancy Fever

  • I have a mixture of both.

    My pregnancy with DS was perfect. I had no pain, no morning symptoms. I loved every second I was pregnant. I really miss feeling the baby move as well. However, I think this may be our last baby, so I don't want to rush it. I'm okay with letting DS be an only child for just a bit longer.

    I also can't wait to snuggle a newborn. They are the best snugglers.

  • I have a 7 month old, and we are officially trying right now (uncomplicated vaginal delivery). I think it might be some time before we conceive since I'm still nursing. But I started thinking about baby #2 right around 4 months, too. It also had nothing to do with wanting to be pregnant again, because I had a pretty tough nine months. But I still am looking forward to the little kicks and baby bump again! I think it's only normal to watch how quickly our LO's are growing and want to rewind back to when we were eagerly anticipating their arrival, or snuggling with them while they sleep on our chests. (My little girl is pretty much done with the snuggling... :(( )

    Good luck on your wait and hopefully you can take this time to enjoy watching your LO grow into a toddler!
  • I adored being pregnant. I have had "pregnancy" fever for, I swear, years. DD is 6 and we're going to start TTC in like a week (I get my Mirena out next Friday). I had preeclampsia set it at 34 weeks with DD, but once it was discovered I had an uncomplicated c-section, DD was out of the NICU in 13 days and is absolutely thriving. Doc said less than 10% change of PE again because my babies will have different fathers, so I'm just super excited to be pregnant again.

    My advice is live vicariously through other pregnant mamas you know until if/when you can be PG again with your own. It's not perfect, but it helped me!

  • wow didn't know people could feel that way :D cool 
  • I have a 7 month old & baby fever is kicking in for me AND my husband already. I loved the pregnancy, the birth, everything. We got lucky with a super cool easy-going baby too. If she had a finicky temperament I might be hesitant to consider TTC so soon.
  • I have pregnancy fever too!!
  • I wasn't even out of the hospital when I started thinking about the next baby. However, I had GD, so I want to get down to a healthy weight before TTC again.
