Can't remember the feeling!

I'm only 3 and a half weeks post partum and I already can't remember the feeling of being pregnant or the pain of childbirth. I look at photos of my bump and can't fathom that it was me or think of how it felt to feel my baby move, or the pain of it all. I remember thinking during labour that I'd never do it again but now my brain is telling me it wasn't bad and I could easily do it again! So strange. Just wondering if other people have experienced this?

Definitely. I look at my baby and find it so surreal and cant believe they were ever inside me and fitted in there somehow.
I cant remember what kicks felt like or the baby moving. I can't remember what contractions felt like. Even second time around I couldnt remember what contractions would be like until I started having them.

Very occasionally I get funny flutters in my tummy - must be wind or something - and I think "oh that felt like a baby kicking" but as soon as it passes I cant remember anymore.
