    It's normal, when baby is still a bump they are just yours and you don't have to share, once they are out other people insist on holding them and things

    You can carry mine around for the next four months if you like!!!! And if you could do the birthing bit for me too .....

    Not on your life. Being pregnant is not exactly fun, is it?

    Still got mine but I'm really looking forward to being able to bend over and turn over easily in the night but I'm not looking forward the big kangaroo pouch I'll be left with. I like having a nice, tight body!
    Updating soon...

    I really missed my bump from DS 14 years ago... the actual physical sensation of it whilst lying in bed especially! I remember feeling so odd when it had gone:(

    This time I haven't enjoyed having a bump and at the moment I think I'm not going to miss it one bit!!:p

    Although when I caught sight of bump in a mirror today I was very impressed by it:o:D

    Congrats on your new baby! I have a 5,4,nearly 2 and a 6 month old and I can tell you I do not miss my bump! Dh has just been snipped hooray! I think had I not had mine all so close together though, I would feel different.

    My bump will be a two week old bub on Friday and NO!I do not miss it, still healing the section scar which is a bit uncomfie now. I do feel slightly guilty for enjoying his hiccups though...poor little guy still gets them at least twice a day now and cleary he does not enjoy them one bit.

    Yes and No.

    I miss rubbing it, feeling her kicks, knowing that she was all snug inside me, the excuse for the last bit of pizza.

    I dont miss not being able to put shoes on, not being able to leave the house due to horrible pains when walking and not being able to get it and out of the bath with dignity.

    But i honestly cant wait for my next bump!
  • I miss having a ready made lap tray for my lunch plate. But i don't miss the sore feelings in my legs in the last month though. But looking at my baby I'm so glad she's here. She's so perfect. :)
    What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine..
