20 Reasons You'll Miss Being Pregnant

All these things are right on! This is my first baby and I have thoroughly enjoyed this pregnancy from even the queasiness (ok, not that part) to the special attention to that secret smile I keep to myself as I imagine this precious little one and what he might look like. I love feeling him move inside and the joy my husband takes in feeling all his rolling and kicking too. Thank you for reminding all of us expectant mommies what a pleasure, joy and blessing even this somewhat uncomfortable stage can be. Being pregnant is amazing!

My son is 3 months old and I never thought I'd say this...but I really do miss being pregnant. I miss feeling him move inside me and I didnt have to share him with anyone then. He was all mine! I could keep all of his little movements and kicks to myself. Its true, you do feel special. I miss that feeling. I wish I had enjoyed it more while I was pregnant because I sure miss it now that its gone!

This is helpful. Im 33 weeks and have been wrestling with body image issues and the amount of weight I've gained. But then she starts to hiccup and it makes me smile to think of her inside me. I too want to enjoy and appreciate this special time in my life...even if it comes with weight gain and unsolicited advice.
