Of course, 99.9% percent of pregnant women are/will be and sorry for a silly thread but just got back home from a shopping trip where, among other things, picked up a few bits for our baby girl (due in October) and suddenly it hit me - I am so so so happy to be pregnant and can't wait for her to be born!!! I laid out all the little outfits I bought and just felt this overwhelming feeling of happines :)
Tomorrow it will be back to usual pregnancy worries, tiredness, running around etc etc but just wanted to savour the moment ;)

I'm having a little girl in October too and am getting to the point where I cannot contain my excitement anymore.
I cannot wait to give her a cuddle for the first time!
I envy people I see out with their LO's

Hi LDNmummy - I remember you from the October club but haven't really kept up with that thread - too many posts 
I know exactly what you mean - I keep peering into buggies to take a look at tiny babies and it just makes me want to cuddle mine so much!
CBear6 am so jealous ;) I have another 3 months left! This is WORSE than waiting for Christmas!! :)

me too! 
I have just got back from a baby stuff shopping trip, and wish I had the energy to do more nesting type stuff! I know what you mean about laying out all the clothes, I have also got out all DS's old stuff and sat sentimentally sniffing them The three-year-old-dust smell hasnt even lowered my excitement 
What IS it about those teeny tiny all in one suits that makes us feel so warm and squishy?
Anyway, am a bit knackered now and trying to think of what kind of nesting things I can do from the comfort of the sofa. Apart from making lists, cant come up with much. Ideas anyone?

Me too!!!!! Although also swing from excited to nervous wreck! I had lovely shopping day with DM today too!!! Bought the cuteist grows- this one and this one from mother care, and a few bits from M&P!! I haven't bought much yet, not due till Nov, but it feels so nice to be building up a collection.
We're having a boy and I can't wait to meet him!!! He's currently practicing his football skills... Hence my midnight post!!

I really held off on the shopping for a long time but at some point just couldn't help myself I figured a good 20 wk scan was enough of an excuse!
Now I think I have to stop! ;) My mum and MIL, however, only just started shopping - we need a big spare closet ASAP ;)

some familiar faces on here - hello everyone 
collie love your Mr Men suits! so cute.
I agree that buying/examining/organising baby clothes is definitely the cure for worrying about the L word!!!

Due in feb but also bursting with excitement. I started shopping when ttc & although it is only little bits like a bib, hat (ok also a coat!!!) each thing makes me sooooooooo excited
Feel pretty rough this pregnancy so the excitement is a nice positive thing x

I'm due end of november, and I've just started to feel movement.
so that makes me feel very excited
I get my 22week scan in a fortnight, and it'll be different from the first scan - at the first scan, it just didn't feel real, like it was just a random moving picture on the screen, but now i can feel it moving, i know it's real.
very odd, but very exciting too

I'm 29 weeks and soooo excited! Have been through the rollercoaster of emotions the past 6 months: excitement at BFP, then tired and sick for WEEKS, then worried as didn't feel movement until 21 weeks, then excitement again at finally feeling the baby...
Then it died down a bit as there was still sooooo long to wait. Then DH and I went to our first antenatal class yesterday and we both came out almost jumping with excitement!
Seeing the delivery room and learning exactly how a baby (should) come out, and what the hospital procedure is for the two hours following the birth made it all so much more real. Just another 3 months to wait....argh!!!!!
