I found that as much as I hated being pregnant at times, I missed it a lot once my son was born. To be honest, I almost felt a little "empty". I really missed feeling his little kicks and movements.

I hear you. I loved being pregnant (I thought I would hate it), so I do miss it, even in hot weather. It was wonderful when it was "just us". Those last weeks, I tried to memorize every moment, but already, that amazing feeling of his kicks and rolls has faded, which makes me so sad. And I loved the way people treated me while I was pregnant. And now I'm struggling to lose the baby weight, so I miss wearing big shirts and eating everything I wanted. And I've found it was a lot easier to take care of my kid while he was in than now that he's out. ;)
It gets better, though.

Oh yes its a very normal feeling. You miss rubbing your belly and feeling them tumble and roll inside, but you also cannot deny that looking into your baby's eyes is so wonderful. I'm not sure which I liked more being pregnant or staring at my baby. Even though during the last part of pregnancy is so uncomfortable its really the greatest time during the whole pregnancy.

I'm one of those women who doesn't really enjoy being pregnant. I love feeling the baby move, but I much prefer my babies on the outside of the womb! I think what you are feeling is perfectly normal. There is no doubt that being pregnant and growing that little person inside you is a miraculous process, and it's natural to feel a little sad that it's over.

My son will be 21 years old in a few weeks, but I still remember this feeling very well. I was very happy about having a baby, but I also felt sad because, like you said, I felt "empty." It felt weird not *feeling* him inside me anymore. I was concerned about feeling that way, but from what I understood, it's a quite normal emotional experience for new moms.

I hated being pregnant too but I think I miss being able to take her everywhere with me and the funny stories I used to here from everyone cause you know everyone has a story but I am much happier that she is here and I can play with her and enjoy watching her little chunky butt grow and learn and watching the funny things that she does on a daily basis.

I do sense as though i does no longer strategies having yet another infant quickly... even although I definitely have 2 babies below 2!

You are totally normal. I loved being pregnant. The hormones must have been pouring because I felt differently when I was pregnant. It makes you want to do it again.

I definitely miss being pregnant. Physically. However, I hated always being asked the same questions - 'When are you due?', 'Are you excited', 'Do you know if it's a boy or girl'...etc.

I felt the same way after both my pregnancies. I liked the attention that I got when I was pregnant.
