Being pregnant with DS was one of the worst times of my life. I hated it, we were young and I would get so many dirty looks, I had a heap of complications, I had an awful OB who gave me no choices and told me how I would be doing things, even told me I couldn't have my mum with me when I birthed him.
DD was completely different, I was older, I was more confident, to begin with I had an OB with an awful receptionist so I changed OB's and it was the best thing I could have done. I loved being pregnant I wore firm fitting clothes to show off my bump and even with the same complications I felt much more in control. The kids have 4 years between them and I think that really helped me enjoy it more because I got more "me" time than I would have had if I was looking after a baby while pregnant.
I'm hoping I'll enjoy being pregnant with our 3rd child even more.
