I don't want another baby but I yearn to be pregnant

[Haribosmummy]

What's up with me?

I know I can't cope with another baby - physically, mentally, financially, etc

But I really, really want to be pregnant again.

I loved being PG with DS (9 months) and I adore him more than anything.... but I know having another baby now would not be straight forward... but the urge is still there.

I KNOW IABU... but what do I do to talk myself out of it?

hm, I think considering your Baby is only 9 month old, I would, for now, put it down to hormones...I assume your issue is more about having another right now, not having another in the future?
After es I was very brrody straightaway, but tbh in the end I was very glad it didn't work out to soon....

As for surrogacy....it's something I have considered in the past....but we decided to go for 1 more of our own and see where we go from there...my reasoning against it is, that I could NOT 100% promise , should I have fallen pg with a girl, that I could give the child up....sounds silly, because I am happy with my 3 boys....but it was the thing that worried me.

Hi HM! Funny, but I've been feeling EXACTLY this way for a while. I had a horrible first 4 months with puking nad the idea of having another actual baby at the moment rather than just a bump horrfies me but I do feel quite broody for pregnancy.

oh thank FUCK!

I thought I was the only weirdo on this planet!!

I really do feel pregnancy broody I'd quite like to birth again too it was really exhilarating

I really have no desire for another whiner ( bad kid day here!! )

I think it's because it's quite magical to feel baby moving and the sheer awe that you are harbouring life!

and of course people who "care" ie sit down rest you're pregnant etc it's kinda nice ...

Yeap I feel the same, but I'm waiting for awhile as it will be no 4 for me, and prob no more so want to enjoy, although not helping that dc3 has decided she wants potty trained and shes 2.3 and doing brilliant, so shes not my baby anymore (well she still is but you know what I mean)

I'd love to be pg again (and have more children too, not just the preg bit) and find that I get all irrationally of people who are obviously pg. Going to Mothercare is a nightmare.

I'm so glad someone else has started a thread admitting to this. I feel completely the same way. Happy hormones.

Right now I'm trying to stop myself having a third so I can have another maternity leave.

I so don't want to be pg again, but am ttc at the mo cos we would like DS to have a sib if poss. Didn't enjoy it at all the first time round, and it wasn't even that bad.

But I do know of someone who loves being pg so much, she is a surrogate mum. She has v. easy pg and births, and has 3 DC of her own; not sure how many surrogate pg she has done but I know it's more than one.
