I became a great aunt a year ago. It's a really fun feeling in some respects. While she was still pregnant, my niece posted on Facebook about how much the baby kicked and wondered out loud about what it would be like after the pregnancy. Before I could even really think about it, I posted that she would miss the movements of the baby after she was no longer pregnant.
It was interesting to see the folks who chimed in who had kids agreeing with me, and the younger (probably kidless) crowd saying the opposite. My niece agreed she'd probably missed it, but also said it would be good to meet the baby. Definitely something anyone who has been pregnant can remember feeling.
Did you miss pregnancy? What specifically did you miss? Or were you just glad to be done, never to look back?
