Do you want to be pregnant or just the end result of a baby? Do you enjoy being pregnant? I always loved it and had a great time until the last month or so when I was just so uncomfortable and anxious.
I am really looking forward to being pregnant again this month! <-- positive thinking

I love parts of being pregnant, love the baby kicking and the feeling of something growing inside of me. The anticipation of arrival and new things. Hearing the heart beat. I however do not enjoy looking in the toilet and heartburn and feet in my ribs but overall i would say i love being pregnant

YES I want to be pregnant. I can't wait to be fat and tired and cranky and feel my baby moving inside me and know that I am growing a little person in my big fat belly!

I LOVE being pregnant (minus the first 12 weeks or so of m/s ). When it came close to DDs due date, I wasn't ready to not be pregnant at the same time as wanting to meet her so bad!

For me it's all about the end result. I'm miserable when pregnant. I enjoy feeling my baby move, I enjoy the excitement, but between the hyperemesis that lasts the whole time and the anxiety because of my loss, I'd rather skip the whole pregnancy part.

Even though I'm really sick the entire pregnancy, I love being pregnant.
I will take it all in strides!

I loved being pg . . . I'm not to thrilled about having to work the weight off again, since it has taken longer each time, but I love feeling the baby in my belly. I've thought about this alot, whether we should consider adoption, but I loved being pg so much I just want to do it again!

I wasn't a big fan of being pregnant. I wasn't sentimental about it, although I really did enjoy feeling him move. I was so anxious to meet him that if you would have given me a fast-forward option I totally would have taken it. Now though... Now that I know what it's like to not be pregnant anymore after being pregnant... I think I'm going to enjoy my next pregnancy a lot more. I'm actually looking forward to the pregnancy part, even though I had a semi-rough time with it last time.

I don't want to get pregnant just to be pregnant, I mainly want the baby. Pregnancy has its ups and downs, which everyone knows about. I enjoyed feeling him move around and everything, but I was happy to be not pregnant by the end.

I actually miss being pregnant. But honestly it's about the end result.

I love being pregnant, I love having my baby all to myself for just a few months. But the best part is when you hold the baby and they nestle their heads into my neck - I love that feeling.

I LOVED being pregnant and loved giving birth (after the epidural  ) and was even a little sad to not be pregnant anymore after I had my son, although I was so excited to have him here, too. I want another baby more than anything, but I also want to be able to enjoy my pregnancy b/c it goes sooo fast.

I enjoy feeling the baby move and having that bonding time that no one else can understand. I don't really care for pregnancy that much though. I am looking forward to it though...I just hate the 1st trimester and I am not looking forward to my 3rd c-section.

If I dont have a successful VBA2C then it will also be my third and last c-section. I am shooting for a VBA2C when I do become pregnant. Cheri22 said she sees a healthy VBAC so I hope she is right about that.
And I am honestly wanting to be pregnant because I love being pregnant I love to rub my belly and feel the baby move around and everything in between I love love love it.

I knew I was pregnant for roughly three weeks and I loved it! I definately want the end result of a baby but I want to enjoy a pregnancy as well. I want to feel the baby move and kick and I want to sport the baby belly!

Naturally I love the end result  ...but I really DO adore being pregnant. I love the anticipation, the excitement, the guessing, the feelings, the emotions, all of it. I loved being pregnant with Liam and could have kept him in there for many more months if I had the option (but I was also excited to meet him). BUT, I feel I should mention that I had a pretty easy pregnancy with Liam and might feel differently if I was sick/uncomfortable the whole time.
