I was sick all the way through right until he came out and had serious trouble putting and keeping weight on, had horrible pains (always in one specific area) whenever I walked that just got worse the bigger I got, I was perpetually scared of something going wrong because of a prior miscarriage and a SCH that just hung out my entire pregnancy. I was like a furnace the whole time, had zero interest in food, and didn't sleep for more than two hours at a time after like 5 months. I did not love being pregnant.
But damn if I don't miss it now! I find myself looking at my old bump pictures and thinking that I looked so pretty, so happy, so excited. I think about how being pregnant really wasn't all that bad, and I wouldn't mind doing it again.
I even think back fondly on my L&D, even though pretty much nothing went the way I was expecting it to...I even find myself thinking that the back labor with a failed epidural really wasn't ALL that bad. I got through it, didn't I?
And man, wasn't it soooo cute when DS was bitty and would wake up crying for me every hour or two? That was cute, right? Right? Bueller?
I don't know what's wrong with me lately! Is this how baby fever starts? If so, it's a problem since we are fairly sure we only want one! (Well, DH is completely sure, me, not so much.)
Do you miss being pregnant? Do you look fondly back on your L&D? Am I crazy?
