Favorite Moment (so far)

[LittleStarSweeper]

Each evening when I'm putting DD to bed, I ask her what her favorite part of the day was. Her response usually surprises me, sometimes makes me laugh, but always makes me feel happy. 🙂
So I got to wondering.... what has been your favorite moment so far during this pregnancy? Was it seeing that (+) on the HPT? The first ultrasound? The first kick? The first sign of an expanding tummy?

I don't know that I can pick one moment. Every moment brings different emotions for me.

Seeing that second line is always excited. I mean, I got so excited my milk let down. I haven't been that excited since.

Seeing the baby on the first ultrasound brought tears to my eyes.

The feeling of the first kick is also exciting and magical but not quite as much as seeing the baby on the ultrasound or seeing that second line.

I'm the kind that loves being pregnant though so I find joy in it at every stage.

I was in total shock when I got my BFP, so that was not my favorite moment. In that span of time though, my favorite moment was telling my ILs on Skype on Christmas morning. They screamed for about 5 minutes and I bawled my eyes out (happy tears!)

After that, I loved hearing the hearbeat. Then I loved the morning I realised I didn't feel like crap anymore. Then starting to see a bump. Then the 12 week scan where baby actually looked like a baby. Then finding out baby was healthy and had no genetic abnormalities . . . .

Oh man, I am like leviosa, I just love being pregnant. So hard to choose one moment!

Thanks LittleStarSweeper for reminding us of the good stuff

I'm with salmon2017 on the moment I didn't feel like crap every moment of the day. I know a lot of people have it worse then me, so it wasn't that bad.

Right now, it's feeling the little kicks and punches. I really hope she has the hiccups like my daughter did every night. You could actually see my bell move with each hiccup. It was so cute.

And when my kids ask to see my belly and touch it.

I would probably say telling dh that the baby is a boy. He had no idea we got the test back, so he was completely shocked. Unfortunately, so much of this pregnancy has been filled with fear, but I'm trying so hard to enjoy it all. At the beginning I thought "this isn't our last one", but the more and more I get into it and the fear of losing another baby creeps in, I'm not sure what our future will hold.

I think finding out we were having a girl. i didn't realize I would be so excited about it.

I'm really enjoying how excited DS is. He's 4.5 and he gets that there is a baby in my tummy and that baby can hear him. He talks to her all the time and has to kiss her good night every night.

I love hearing all of these favorites!
I'd have to say my favorite moment (besides the kicks and hearing the heartbeat, etc) was when DD wanted to hug my belly to give a hug to the baby. My heart melted. She has also started to "talk" to the baby thru my belly. Haha ☺️ I also love it when DD talks about what she's going to do with the baby after he/she is born. She wants to sing and read to the baby, hold his/her hand, show the baby her toys, and so on. 
I'm so looking forward to the sibling relationship they will [hopefully] develop.

I forgot about the excitement of finding out we are having another girl. That was another big one for me.

I was a little surprised at my BFP and I couldn't tell DH for like 5 hours so that was torture. But...the smile on his face will be forever etched in my mind.

Hearing the heartbeat for the first time was a favorite moment.

Telling the kids and seeing their reactions at both having a sibling and then when they found out it was a boy.

I love all the kicks too and when DH, DS, and DD were all able to feel the baby kick.

I loved hearing the heartbeat the first time.

I also love anytime my DD gets excited about the pregnancy. She was in awe the first time she heard the heartbeat and felt the baby kick. She's so excited to be a big sister again.

Seeing that there was a strong HB at my first ultrasound. With my miscarriages, they never started out great and that was a relief. I love it when DS mentions the baby and kisses my belly. It makes my heart melt.
