Kinda sad

I'm sitting here watching Kaelynn make my belly move. I realize that I have one week to my due date and if the ultrasound is good tomorrow I only have 4 more days of being pregnant. The time has went by so fast and I will greatly miss feeling and watching my stomach move from her.

I am ready to have my body back and not be in pain anymore but I will miss being pregnant.

We plan on trying again in a year so they will be around 2 years apart. That seems so long till I'm pregnant again and BF says he only wants two. The next pregnancy will be my last.

The reality has made me kinda sad. I'm very excited to meet my little angel but sad I won't be pregnant any more.

I can imagine that would be pretty hard when your pregnancy suddenly ends so abruptly, so early in the game. I'm glad she waited as long as she did and is healthy though. It would be pretty frustrating not to be able to hold her right away like that. I hope she gets to go home soon, and you can then catch up on all your Mommy cuddles :)

I'm 31 weeks pregnant, and it is so amazing to see my belly jiggling around. My OB pointed out his heel at my appointment the other day, and since then, now I can sometimes feel a heel or an elbow in there and I know I will never get to experience this again, as DH has two daughters and is getting his tubes tied after our son is born. It does make me sad and I want to make the most of this special time I have with him. Its frustrating sometimes too, when its hot he hardly moves at all! It sometimes feels like I'm getting ripped off lol. Its so confusing, because this is my first and I have no idea what to expect, and I'm very anxious to see what he looks like and to be able to check him out to make sure he's got everything in the right place and is healthy!

i completely understand what you mean...i am still sad that my preg ended so quickly...i am very thankful for my daughter but it seems like just when i was able to relax and enjoy and laugh at her hiccups and waking me up in the middle of the night it was all over...

the sadder part is my husband is now saying no more kids...i think he is scared of another preterm baby that doesnt make it...having PROM is very scary and i heard there is a shot (17-P) that can help prevent but who knows...i think Emilee is my last baby and thats the sadder part to me...its crazy thinking i will never be preg again

my advice is to enjoy every day of the preg...the best part is holding the baby in your arms at the end but again i didnt get to hold my baby until she was 2 days old...i didnt even get to see her after pushing her out...ugh..i guess im having a depressing day about all of it

aw you almost made me cry.. your boyfriend might change his mind, you never know. my hubby says he wants two too, so i say i want 4 (although i want 3) so we can compromise at 3 :) in reality, we'll just see how things go.

i also cant wait to get my body back, get in my "skinny clothes" and have a glass of wine already!

we also want another when Lily is about a year old so maybe we'll be going through our second ones together too!
