i miss being pregnant

I know how you feel. I had my daughter last June and I miss being pregnant. I loved feeling her kick, hearing her heartbeat, seeing her on the ultrasound machine, the times my hubby would go to kiss her (my belly) and she'd boot him in the lips, and the waves she would make in the tub because every time I'd have a soak in the tub she'd wake up and start booting like crazy! One of my friends is pregnant and when she tells me she got booted or anything pregnancy related I just get sad because I miss it so much. We only have one child (our daughter) but we are thinking of having another one and to be honest I can't wait! I'm sorry that your feeling sad, but I can relate and understand how you feel. I am VERY lucky to have my daughter because 10 years ago Doctors told me I couldn't have children. It took almost 10 years to the day, but it happened.When I found out I was pregnant I was over the moon and so was my husband!

Hey there I to felt the same way in the past. I am a young mom 28 with 7 beautiful children and expecting in Aug! For myself I didn't want to end not having children when in my heart I knew I still did. I think everyone has a different opinion, for we have people like us who enjoyed and appreciate every little bit, to others who find they are not cut out for it. But you know I think everyone women should be able to experience what you and I have! Our Little ones are such a huge blessing and I am grateful for all that I have. Don't worry your feelings are so normal and maybe as time moves on the feelings will pass, and hey who know you could always go and un tied your tubes in the future! Take care and if you ever need a friend I am here for you! Best wishes to you and your family Stacy

I do not understand this at all. Pregnancy is one of the few great fears I have. I never want to be pregnant, I couldn't imagine it.

I know what you mean. I have two children and would like a couple more, but I am waiting a couple more months (till my baby is 1) before trying. In spite of all the sickness - I love being pregnant. I'm glad there is someone else who thinks of labour and delivery as something good. I'm not saying I like pain, but there is something satisfying about going through it and having a miracle to show for it.

well i missed out on most of my pregnancy and i was really depressed aobut it. i'm not going to have any other children but i would really love to experience pregnancy again, the whole thing. i delivered my daughter at 27 weeks so i had just started feeling the kicking and i had to have a c-section and never got to experience the natural birth and getting to hold your baby right away. she was a few weeks old when i first got to hold her. anyway she's healthy but i too get jelous when i see other women pregnant and wish i could get pregnant and have a normal delivery.

I know how you feel. I had a really good pregnancy and truly enjoyed every moment of it. We have one now and will be planning on No. 2 soon. But we're waiting for a few more months. It's hard to see so many of my friends pregnant and wish I was pregnant the same time as them! I really can't wait to be pregnant again and yet at the same time, I know the timing now is not that great yet. So, I have to wait patiently. Well, at least in your case, you can be comforted in the knowledge that you have brought 4 beautiful children into the world. I would love to have 4 too but not sure if I can handle so many!!

i never been pregnant before and dying to experience it hopefully very soon... i want to have a child badly and i hope that God will grant my wish... please wish me luck...

I have 2 kids who will be 10 and 7 this summer. I don't so much miss being pregnant, but I do miss the baby years. I have to admit that hearing the heartbeat and seeing the baby through ultrasound is exciting, but I don't miss it. Now my husband on the other hand misses me being pregnant and wants us to have another baby. Go figure! LOL

I have 2 children who are now 19 and 22 and I would have loved more but my ex husband only wanted 2. I can't say I miss being pregnant and much preferred actually looking after them once they where born. I know it seems a long way off in the future but one day you will have babies again in the family when you are a grandparent. Not much consilation but don't think as yours grow up then the babies are all behind you as in the future you should have loads to look forward to. If each of your 4 have 2 babies each then that is 8 grandchildren there and if they have more then they could start their own football team.

I am really surprised that you miss being pregnant.My friends don't want to be pregant,because their of body and they can't wear a lot of beautiful and make up.And the hardness when a baby was born,so they don't like to be pregnant.

I miss being pregnant also and my daughter is only 4 months old. My husband thinks I am crazy because during my last pregnancy I was miserable. But I do miss the big belly, the kics, the ultrasounds and like you I even enjoyed giving birth. Id love 2 more kids if he is willing to have them too. We shall see though. I understand how you feel completely.

I know what you mean. I loved being pregnant, and I have 3 kids but want one more and when I think about it not having any more kids after that is heartbreaking. I think being pregnant is surely the best thing ever and especially giving birth it may be more painful than anything I have ever expierenced but it is so worth it. The things we do for our kids. LOL. Pregnancy sure is nice especially when you have someone special to share it with. My husband was so great with me and patient did everything for me and always tried to be understanding even though the last 3 weeks of my pregnancy I was so grumpy. I went 5 days overdue with my last one so things were getting rough for me. But still loved every minute of it.

I know what u mean I love to be pregnant and the feeling that my hubby gives me Always around hugs me lifts me up even though I am big ( when I am pregant ) that is so great

actually i'm not qualified for this post.. but do you mind me giving my opinions out? erm.. missing being pregnant should be a normal thing for a lady.. well..only ladies can get pregnant right? i don't think i can say i miss being pregnant since i'm a guy.. but .. here.. i have a little suggestion for you.. though it might seems ridiculous.. you can always consider it.. erm.. why not try adopting a new baby? or.. you can consult some psychology doctors.. to get rid of the problems you're having now.. maybe you just have to accept that 4 children would be enough for the rest of your life?

I feel the same too. I have a 2 year old son, my husband and I want another baby but not anytime soon as our son is so active we're not sure if we can handle teaching a toddler right from wrong while I'm big & pregnant. Pregnancy is such a wonderful phase of a woman's life too bad not everyone sees it that way. You already experienced pregnancy 4 times, give others a chance, hahaha! Have a good day!

Aha, this is my first hearing about this point. I just been confused that are you not hurting when you got being pregnant and deliver? I am a man have no feeling about it, but i've seen lots of pregnent women suffering big pain in delivery. Horrible!

I'm trying to get pregnant now and I can't wait! I know it sucks towards the end but it's all worth it. When I was carrying my son, I felt that he was more secure, I could protect him more if that makes any sense. I loved watching him after he was born, he'd move around and I'd remember what it was like when he was in my womb, like he had a habit of kicking his arms and legs out at the same time, and he did that the last weeks of my pregnancy, you could see the feet and hands on the side of my belly!

I totally get this. I had three sons and my tubes tied very young. I loved being pregnant, nursing and provided child care for my community while my kids where growing up. Being pregnant energized me. I read about nutrition, child care, babies, gardening, I made homemade baby food. I painted murals in the nursery. I sewed my own receiving blankets and nighties and of course made afghans. I used cloth diapers for god's sake!! LOL I felt like my family was the center of the universe back then. Now, I have empty nest and I miss that feeling. That is until my grand-daughter comes to visit me. I am so proud that I see myself in this sweet, funny, wild little girl. Then, I remember who I am and where my place in the world is again.

Ooooooooh 4 babies two much.Just thing abt urself.are u mad or something else.
