Guest Post: Why I Miss Being Pregnant
The lovely Sarah from Whimsical Mumblings is today’s guest post writer. She wants to tell you why she misses being pregnant, which I must admit is making me feel broody; Do you feel the same?
To stop myself getting broody I also wrote a guest post for Sarah’s blog; Why I Don’t Miss Being Pregnant, which you can view on her blog.
Why I Miss Being Pregnant
Yes it’s true, I do actually miss being pregnant.
Of course, I love my babies more than the world.
I obviously don’t wish they weren’t born or anything!
There’s just a few things I do miss about those pregnancy days.

| First Pregnancy |
Naps
Oh how I miss the daily naps. Having a couple hours doze everyday was just what I needed.
The Bump
I love baby bumps. The roundness, the closeness. I like the look of a big baby bump!
The Anticipation
The waiting, the wondering, the hoping!
It’s exciting!
Feeling Special
Being pregnant and round does make you feel appreciated.
People care, people are interested in you.
It may sound a bit selfish, but the occasional attention is lovely.
Baby Clothes Shopping
Shopping with a baby is not so much fun, but shopping for a baby is lovely.
There are so many adorable outfits, little socks, booties! Everything is SO CUTE!
No matter how many babies you have, whenever you are shopping for a newborn, its always a surprise at how teeny the clothes are!
Little Flutters
Feeling the little flutters inside, that only you can feel.
Feeling and seeing the little feet kicking, it’s an indescribable feeling.
Cravings
Cravings are fun! Haha. As long as you don’t crave something really fatty or inedible!
I craved Chocolate Milk & Green Apples with Little Girlie, and cereal with Little Boy!
Good Body Image
I loved my pregnancy body. I loved showing off my bump.
I felt so good in all my clothes, I felt beautiful and feminine.
(I would never normally wear a bikini, let alone take a photo in one!)

| Second Pregnancy |
Feeling Proud
The feeling of pride about taking care of my baby inside.
The pride that I would soon be a mum.
What I do not miss
The Heartburn. So. Much. Heartburn.
What do you miss/not miss about being pregnant?

After 20 weeks I felt terrible and really struggled. There's not much I missed
