What do you miss about being pregnant?

Question

I was thinking about this and realized that even tho pregnancy is not particularly fun, I miss a few things!
1) eating donuts / ice cream / pizza whenever i want and feeling zero guilt about it
2) people actually holding the door for me
3) people letting me cut them in lines at grocery stores! What! Why thank you!
4) sleeeep and naps
5) me time! 
What do you miss?

Answer

Oh gosh, everything. People being nice to you and helping you, resting without feeling guilty, getting dressed with my bump instead of a flabby gut, getting to do "selfish" things like spend 1:1 time with my husband and doing things by myself "before baby gets here", having free time to decorate my house, browse at Target, browse anywhere really, and sleep. I really miss being pregnant.

Answer

Long baths with my baby belly! Feeling her squirm inside. Although now I feel her squirm on the outside and we took our first bath together! Wasn’t exactly the same as it was when I was pregnant but it was a different kind of fun

Answer

Other than feeling baby move inside me - I do not miss anything about being pregnant. I was SO tired and sluggish, and it was SO hot I was miserable all summer - and I feel like I missed out in so much play time with my older two because of how I felt. I am LOVING carrying my baby on the outside now. We use a sling or money carrier a lot of the time, which has just been wonderful, and I am so much more rested and not as hot anymore with a ton more energy.

I TOTALLY agree, people are soooooo nice to pregnant women! 
Good news with newborn people have still been super helpful. 
Kinda miss just keeping her safe sound and happy by just eating and sleeping 😂 now I have to work much harder to achieve it

Answer

Me time for sure! 
Being able to just run a quick errand without having to put baby in the car seat then the stroller, ect.
Sleep. Even the shitty 3rd trimester, can't get comfortable, up every hour to pee, everything hurts sleep was better the lack of sleep I'm getting now. 
I've had a permanent headache since she was born. High pitched noises (her crying) kills my ears

Answer

I always miss the baby kicks! I also miss having just one child to focus on lol

Answer

I miss everything about it I had the worst pregnancy in a sense but I still miss it after trying 12 years and finally got her we are actually going to try again soon due to that fact and my doctor is totally fine with it.

Answer

Definitely the eating. And knowing she was safe all the time (I have post partum anxiety). Also the anticipation because we didn’t know if she was a boy or a girl. I miss my husband too. Our relationship before baby because right now it’s a little strained.
