Had my first very much wanted and gorgeous DC a year ago and waiting (impatiently) to start trying for #2 and I'm just SO excited! We will start trying in May.

I have definitely forgotten all the difficult bits about pregnancy. I'm so jealous of everyone with a bump. I miss having one so much!

I can't wait for my positive test, scans, hearing the heartbeats, midwife appointments, feeling the kicks - I enjoyed it all so much first time around but this second time I am next level excited as I know what's to come!

DH only wants two children but I feel like I will forever want to be pregnant or with a baby 🙈

Anyone else feel like this? I love everything about that newborn stage too and just can't wait to do it all again!

I absolutely loved everything about my first pregnancy, I loved all the attention and the excitement. I even loved my pregnancy body!
My second pregnancy was booooooriiiiiiing 😂😂

Loved my first pregnancy because it was so exciting and I had very few negative symptoms. This time I love my bump but have felt crappy quite a significant amount of the time 😂

@wantabumpforever it’s just not the same 😂 yes scans are lovely but I was just like wow ok a blurry baby, I’ve seen that before checks watch how many months left??

First maternity leave I had like 5 weeks just chilling at home before DS came, it was fantastic. No chance with a toddler 😂

I’m only half serious, when everything is going well it’s still really lovely being pregnant if you enjoy it (lots of people don’t and that’s normal too!).

@CurryandSnuggle is it a different sex this time perhaps? Congratulations! Jealous of you and your bump Grin

I have to agree that I generally love being pregnant and couldn’t wait to do it s second time but it’s not quite as lovely and special second time. Busy with a toddler, more tired, just less excitement and anticipation when you’ve done it all before. But I still do love it!

Aw your positivity is lovely, I need that right now haha!!

I quite enjoyed my first pregnancy, the first and second trimester were quite rough with bad morning sickness, but after about 23 weeks I loved it!

I couldn’t wait to try for DC2 and be pregnant again!

Currently 12 weeks and struck down with hyperemesis, so currently not loving it. I always thought I wanted at least 3 but sadly this has put me off big time!! Morning sickness when your off in a pandemic, manageable, hyperemesis when you have a toddler not so manageable Grin let’s hope for a nice third trimester!

I am the total opposite op and am in awe of your positivity!

CurryandSnuggle · 23/03/2022 21:23

@wantabumpforever haha yes I am having a girl this time. To be honest though I do love my pregnancy for the most part. I am particularly enjoying watching my tummy do the Mexican wave 😂

CurryandSnuggle · 23/03/2022 21:24

Also it is just as exciting second time round for me as it’s been 7 years since I was last pregnant and I’ve forgotten it all 😂
