How about you?



Funny, I was just thinking about this today!

I miss being able to nap no matter what when Laszlo goes to sleep, instead
of praying that Lily snoozes at the same time (been lucky with this so far,
knocking wood).

I miss feeling miss Lily in my belly and her evening dance parties. I miss
seeing my stomach twich violently when she was in the middle of a really
exciting number. :-)

I miss people bending over backwards to help me (these were mostly
strangers, by the way...my family seemed to take this pregnancy more for
granted than the first one).

I miss being really skinny...I'm not like most women and I lose weight
pregnant and look amazing. When I'm through and nursing, I gain weight and
just look like plain ol' me. It's nice to always be complimented on my
appearance when I'm feeling kinda icky.

I will not miss waking up to pee a thousand times a night.

I will not miss the sciatica, although I have a whole different back pain
thing going on now.

I will not miss going to the doctors so frequently, panicking about my blood
pressure, not knowing when I'd finally go into labor, etc.

I will NOT miss the panic attacks I was getting SO frequently (Jill, hang in
there, it goes away after you have your baby!)

I think that's all for now...I know there were other things I was thinking
of when this came to me this morning, but it's all out the window now. Damn
that mommy brain!

- Jen, momma to Laszlo and Lily

I miss feeling the movement in my belly.

I miss the mystery and excitement of not knowing the sex and appearance
of my baby.

I miss knowing that my baby is safe and well. My little one has a bad
cold at the moment.

I miss the amazment of my body growing this whole person inside of me.

I miss the chance of experiencing a vaginal birth. I have had 3 sections.

I miss my now very flabby tummy being extended and full.

I love gazing at my new daughter, cuddling her, breastfeeding her,
hearing her voice, seeing her smiles, listening to her laugh as her
brother and sister play with her.

I love being able to run after my kids.

I love not having to get up to pee at night.

It is better to be able to do housework without so much effort. But
there is still no enjoyment in it

It is nice to be able to look at new clothes and wonder how long it will
be before I get back to my old size.

It is nice to be able to shower with DH and not knock him out the door
when I turn around.

I will miss everything about being pregnant. The anticipation of meeting
a new little person, the feeling of her fluttering in my uterus, seeing
my tummy bounce, watching it grow. Everything! I just love being
pregnant. This time as much as last time.

Well, I will never be pregnant again, but I will miss the feeling of
having someone else inside my belly. Knowing that they are one with
me, but I little control over their movements. Them kicking me at
just the right time to tell me, "Stop it, Momma! NOW!"

I will miss the excitement of knowing that new person is about to join
our family. I miss my DH kindly rubbing my tummy and giving it gentle
kisses -- not for me, but the son/daughter to come. I will miss
rubbing my belly and knowing that I am somehow touching my child. I
will miss talking to my child and knowing it is just between me and
them and no one else.

There are a lot more things that I will NOT miss, but that wasn't the
question.

I will miss the magic, rolling, tumbling tummy !
I will miss not being conscious of my weight
I will miss the silence g


It will be nice to sleep on my tummy again ( after a while maybe, or
straight away ? ), but that's all i've missed, I think.

I definitely miss feeling Alexandra moving in my belly.
But now I can see her! And I can see DH holding her!

I don't miss the back-ache, the sciatica, the reflux and the swelling.

I am really happy I can drive again and I can eat soft smelly cheeses and
pate'.

Love

I have heard that as long as you live in Canada or the US you can eat all
the soft smelly cheeses you want... well I should say as long as they are
made in the US or Canada because both countries require pasteurization and
that makes the cheeses not a risk.

This is the same answer I was going to give! I can't wait to sleep on my
tummy again! Although if you are breast feeding it could be a little bit
before it's totally comfortable again (due to engorgement or larger than
normal breasts...but it eventually settles down)
