in October 2023 Babies 🇺🇸

I have a confession to make—

Before I say it, I’ve wanted this baby for a long time and even paid tons of money out of pocket for IVF-ICSI to have this baby But I’m starting to really think and am really going to miss it just being my hubby the puppy and I. I’m gonna miss whatever quality time we do get to spend together.

That's completely normal to feel, I get it 100%. Just think of all the new memories and experiences you'll have TOGETHER! I'm not saying it'll be easy but it's well worth it

It will definitely be different Hope we can still find some one on one time so we don’t totally lose ourselves

I totally get it because I feel the same way. I’ve always wanted a baby and am so grateful to have had such an easy experience and the ability to get pregnant but sometimes I sit and think about how it’ll never be me and my partner again and it does make me sad

I think that’s pretty valid. Currently pregnant with our rainbow baby after a tragic loss last year at 21 weeks. Now that it’s getting close I sometimes do think about how our lives are going to change. It’s a lot to process. Hopefully you won’t lose yourself if you are conscious and make that effort.

Same here. It’s normal. We all take time to adjust to change but I truly believe that soon enough after their arrival we’ll be so used to the new lifestyle that won’t even remember how life used to be BEFORE children 🤗

Same here, I think about how my life will never be about me ever again, I will always have someone I will have to put above any and everything else in my life. It's a bit disconcerting, especially at my young age (21), but I'm also extremely happy to become her mother when she gets here.
