Missing pregnancy

Is anybody else in the same boat…… I was very fortunate to have an extremely easy pregnancy, no major symptoms. I gave birth at 38 + 4, she’s now 2 weeks old. I am finding myself mourning my pregnancy! I miss being pregnant, I miss the excitement of going into labour and not knowing when it will happen! Is this a bit weird!? I absolutely adore my daughter and was so pleased to meet her and she’s just perfect but I still miss the pregnancy!

I feel the same! I’m 3 and a half weeks PP baby boy was born 37+3. I adore my little man and am obsessed with him. There’s something about missing the pregnancy and the lead up makes me feel sad I’m not sure why 😂 I just out it down to baby blues x

I’m still pregnant so the excitement about going into labour is just pure horror and terror for me at the moment instead! 🤣 I’ve had a relatively challenging pregnancy but I still think I’m going to miss it!

I feel exactly the same. I've just packed up my maternity clothes and felt quite emotional. I love my little girl so much and I'm loving life with her but I adored being pregnant; feeling so connected to baby, watching my amazing body grow her, feeling the love and support from those around me, even strangers when you're pregnant. 9 months and then it's gone. I think the term 'mourning pregnancy is spot on, and it doesn't change how much you love your baby. X
