Confession

PMeg819 · February 2014

The crazy lady in me wants one more baby. I told DH and he was down with it- he's one of five kids and would love to have a big family. I think part of my problem is that DD is growing up. She has spent the last two nights in her crib, not in our room. She is not a teeny infant- she's my 14.5 pound, 13 week old chubster.

Another confession- I don't love being pregnant, but I love giving birth. I really don't mind those awful first weeks when it's non-stop nursing, tiredness, hormones, and unshowered nastiness. The sleep deprivation is harder now than it is then.

I loved being pregnant and hated giving birth. The first few weeks were terrifying for me, but I feel like that's because I just didn't know what the hell I was doing. I'd hope it would be different if we had another one.

But I love that DefConn is more independent by the day.

We're probably (like 95% sure) done.

My confession though: I don't mind that he's not interested in potty training. Changing diapers does not bother me. I know he won't go to kindergarten in diapers.

I loved being pregnant. My births weren't so hot, but not so traumatic that I don't want more babies. I'd have a couple more if I weren't so realistic.

DH is done. And he's probably right, but I'm not ready to say that 100% or have either of us do anything permanent.

My mom didn't mind being pregnant, hardly any symptoms, but she almost died both times giving birth. She had 2 children (my brother/me) and both wanted large family (both are one of six), but they settled for two because they didn't want to deal with more complications.

I don't know if it was age or what, but my pregnancies just got harder and harder. 6let was easy. I worked past my due date and hiked all over that mill. M2 just made me hurt. Max made me want to die. The joints, the fatigue, the everything.

My GD got worse with each pregnancy too.

I've made sure to space my pregnancies -well- apart. My oldest is 16, and I'm pregnant right now.

But, they're SO wildly different. I suspect that's due to my age. But, with my 16 year old, I had no idea I was pregnant. No tenderness, no nausea, no smell aversions, NOTHING. What tipped me off was when my feet started swelling to crazy proportions.

This pregnancy, oh my lord. I'm exhausted, I'm nauseous every day, my breasts hurt, everything STINKS to me, and my hormones are killing my husband.

I told him, even if we both weren't "old" (I'll be 37, and he'll be 47 when the baby's born), I would NOT do this again.

But, I sure do want this kiddo. This one was planned for. My 16 year old, not so much. So, I'm incredibly glad to BE pregnant, but I'm sick of feeling sick.

You ladies make me feel better----H and I have had a few talks and next year looks like the year to have baby #1. Eeeps. Unless we have complications, there will be more than one, though, you never know.

I don't know what kind of pregnancy I would have at this point in the game. I would like to think it would be easy breezy but who knows.

My confession: I'm doing better with this turning 40 thing than I thought. I'm actually looking forward to 41. Who would have thunk it?

A mere couple of months until we start the spawning process, so I guess I'll know soon how I fare.

I think the second time around was harder because I already had DS. When I wanted to nap, he wanted to go to the park- guess what won? I know a third would be even harder. I still am having lingering aches and pains from being pregnant with DS. Plus, I'm working on losing the baby weight and I'm not sure I want to do that again. Everyone's pregnancies are different- it's all how you approach it and how realistic you are about it. NOLA, I bet you'd be fine.

I don't know why I'm crazy excited for this.

I think because I had the vag on lockdown for pretty much all time. And then I hit an age where it was a possibility and my mind went from 0-100 in about 2 months.

It does kinda work this way. Even coworkers mentioned that turnaround to me when I announced.

My pregnancy confession. Horny. As. Fuck.

*stands in BioDome, all alone*

*with Scotch and enjoying all your pics*

No you can't come back in once you go out. It's like Thunderdome up in here.

mrsconn23 · February 2014

LOL, Varuna.

And I also wanted and enjoyed the sechs while pregnant. I also had some intense sex dreams when I was KU'd...I even O'd with one. ::sigh:: ...memories.

**O-Face** · February 2014

Uh oh. If I'm like "THIS" before pregnancy...Mr. O is in trouble.

My pregnant sex confession: I would wake up in the middle of the night with this uncontrollable urge. I would have to pet the stingray just to get back to sleep.

jojobrn · February 2014

I was the complete opposite, not even a little horny.

But I think it is the sleep talking here, I seriously miss my little squish. I love my little person, but the snuggly days were awesome.

PMeg819 · February 2014

::nods head:: I was like this during my last pregnancy. DH was sort of weirded out because I was pretty much good to go whenever, even like 15 minutes after we'd finished. I had sex dreams, and I had one where Me and Jon Hamm were getting freaky in Mad Men costumes then I woke up right as I was about to O. I cried.

thejucheidea · February 2014

... I am looking forward to this life experience.
