I had my DD 4 weeks ago and I'm finding myself hugely missing being pregnant and wishing I could go back and give birth again too. My pregnancy was uncomplicated and enjoyable and my labour couldn't have gone better had I tried. I actually went into labour with no birth plan/no expectations of natural labour/wanted to take all the drugs and simply had the mindset of "shes got to come out so not point getting stressed" however it was an amazing experience, very quick, gas & air only and just genuinely loved the entire experience.
I love thinking back on the experience and I'm finding myself really missing being pregnant. We went back to the birth centre last week and I had this overwhelming feeling of missing out because I wasn't there to give birth. I've also had a friend today post about having her baby and I was sad/jealous that it wasn't me!
I just wanted some perspective of it it's normal to really miss it so much? I feel like at this rate the second I'm given the all clear at my check up I'll want to get pregnant again
