Grieving my final time being pregnant
I had my last baby 3 weeks ago and I am just gutted I’ll never be pregnant again. I know the whole point of being pregnant is to have the baby so I feel terrible saying this, but I feel like I don’t have anything to look forward to again. After the birth of my first two kids I was sad not to be pregnant but at least I could tell myself I’d get to do it again one day.
I think I’ll miss the excitement/anticipation, feeling special and cared for. I stayed in a private hospital for a week afterwards and it’s so hard to go from everyone caring about you to just…nothing.
Does anyone have any tips? For anyone who has felt like this when does it get better.
