Any ladies out there who miss being pregnant?
I am almost 6 wpp. I was going through old screen shots on my phone today and came across some that tugged at my heartstrings. I saw screen shots from my fertility app when I was tracking my ovulation. I saw the shot from that day my LH surged and we knew we had a chance to conceive. I then saw snaps from my pregnancy app, showing that my baby was the size of a penny, then a baseball, then a cantaloupe.
It reminded me how excited my husband and I were. How we dreamed about what it was going to be like to have a sweet baby in our arms. Then I realized that even when/if we have another baby, I'll never feel that again. I'll never experience that "first time" again. Despite it being a very difficult pregnancy with several scares and my feeling miserable there at the end, I genuinely loved being pregnant. Sometimes I'll catch myself rubbing my belly like I used to when baby would kick, then I remember that I'm not pregnant anymore and my heart sinks for a minute.
Don't get me wrong, my daughter is the most beautiful, perfect thing that I've ever laid eyes on and I adore her. But sometimes I miss her being in my belly so much that it hurts. I know that some of you may think I'm crazy, but are there any moms out there that feel this way occasionally?
