I envy you ladies

When I was preggo with my twins, I wanted nothing more than to not be pregnant any more! I wanted the pain and discomfort and exhaustion to end. But now I miss feeling these little sweeties kick and roll and hiccup! As happy as I am that they are here, there is nothing like the feeling of being pregnant. So hug your belly today and try to enjoy your next few days/weeks/months, because this pregnancy is something you will never be able to have back. Congrats and good luck to all you mommies-to-be!

 

What a sweet post! Thanks for the reminder. I try every single day to enjoy being pregnant as this is my last pregnancy (some days are easier than others!).

I second what shelley79 said. I am really trying to remember this when I complain about this pregnancy, especially because its the last.

 

This is my last pregnancy too and I'm trying to enjoy it as much as I can. I am SO happy that the babies have stayed in for this long and I'm trying to enjoy these last couple of weeks, but I'm getting antsy and anxious!!

 

I totally agree. When i see someone who is pregnant, it almost makes me want to cry as I know I will never have that wonderful experience again. Enjoy it.

 

I experienced those feelings after all of my pregnancies. This fourth pregnancy was a surprise though, and to find out it was twins...woah! I know this is definitely my last pregnancy. Even though five kids is definitely all I want, I do believe I'll feel that little twinge when I see a pregnant woman walk by after I deliver.

 

This is my last pregnancy too, although my DH says he might want more. But I will be 35 next year and don't want to risk anymore. It is great feeling the babies, it has always been my favorite part and it is easy t miss. As women, I think we will always yearn for it when we aren't experiencing it. Enjoy your babies.

 

I agree with all of you. This is my last pregnancy as well. There has been moments that I have thought that I may want another, but with these babies being #5 and #6 in the family, and considering I will be 35 next year, it really isn't very practical, and I know DH doesn't want any more. It is just difficult to come to the realization that a time in your life has ended. Being pregant has always been a happy time for me, even though this is a completely different experience than my singleton pregnancies, I know I will miss having the feeling of a child or two growing within me! I try to embrace this pregnancy and remember how special of a time it has been. It's hard to believe when my twins are finally in school, it will soon be time to be looking towards being a grandmother, as my DD will be 15 this year.

 

i miss my belly! i miss being pregnant and seeing their butts move around (their butts were up together at the top of my belly, and they'd booty bump all the time! ), and having my side tickled by ivana, who, poor thing, was lodged in my side for the majority of my pregnancy, because her sister spread herself out throughout the womb lol. and when they're in your belly, they're with you all the time, safe and cozy!

 

oh I so miss my pregnancy too!!! I would love to go back to one of those days and feel just one more sweet kick or hiccup!!

 

This is my 5th pregnancy, and I have always loved being pregnant. Well, with the exception of the first. I had severe morning sickness for 8 months. My other pregnancies were much easier and I was able to enjoy them. I would get sad when the pregnancy was over, but of course loved having the baby. Whenever I'd see a pregnant woman, I'd always think she was so lucky. LOL!

I haven't felt the twins move yet, as I'm only just 10 weeks along, but I'm sure it will be extra special. I'm even keeping a pregnancy journal.

 

I just wanted to be different.. I do not miss the twin pregnancy.. It was so draining and ainful! I miss the singleton pregnancy.That was easy and fun. The twins were my last pregnancy also (unless "he" decides otherwise)..

 

that is so sweet. When you look at your babies you tend to forget what a wonderful time the pg was.. so enjoy it as much as possible now.

 

I dont miss being pregnant at all. It was my first and last pregnancy and that is mainly because I really did not enjoy it. I envy all you ladies who did/do.
I was told that I would miss being pregnant once I had the twins and.........I have never once missed it.
Just wanted to share in case there is anyone out there who feels like the odd one out or a bad Mum because they dont enjoy it. I often worried about what kind of mother I would be because I was rarely happy during my pregnancy.
From all reports I am doing well
Good Luck Mummys.

 

Thanks for the reminder. I also think I will miss them a lot, it was the case after my DD was born, which was one of the incentive to try and become pregnant again. It will be my last pregnancy as well (I'm 36 and we could not make it financially anyway). So, for now, I'm enjoying every last bit of it

 

I usually try to remind myself to try to enjoy the pregnancy because this will also be my last but this pregnancy is so different that my others. I am 31 and this will be be baby #5 & #6 for me as well. All the other pregnancies were a breeze but this one is like nothing I have ever experienced before. The aches and pains so early, the loss of breath, the enormous size of my belly, the uncomfortableness all the time, the swelling, the headaches, it just seems like "how in the world am I going to make it any further?"

I've been doing alot of praying...and trying to rest as much as I can working full time and being mommy and wifey the rest of the time...Just a few more months to go. I might miss the "thought" of being pregnant but my body will appreciate me dropping this load.

 

I have not enjoyed this time at all- feels like I have been pg forever and it's only been 14 weeks! Maybe it'll get better once I have a belly and can feel them kicking and all. So far, I've just been sick and uncomfortable.
