- I love seeing my little girl stare back at me
- I love it when she smiles
- I love it when she is asleep and peaceful
- I love it when people tell me how adorable she is
- I love how my husband looks at her, how he holds her and bonds with her
- I love that I have a reason to live a better life
- I love being told how well of a job I am doing taking care of her
Things I hate:
- I hate not being able to get a full night of sleep
- I hate that there are days when no matter what I do she will not sleep in her bed
- I hate having to be extra careful and being worried
- I hate that diapers and formula are expensive
- I hate that I can't do things on a whim anymore
- I hate the sound of a high pitched cry
- I hate not having more time with my husband
- I hate having to stop having sex because the baby starts crying
Things I miss about being pregnant:
- I miss having my belly rubbed by my husband
- I miss the random kisses he gave me, the attention and extra love
- I miss looking forward to the delivery day
- I miss ultrasounds and doctor appointments
- I miss the smiles I would get from random women at grocery stores
- I miss baby shopping
- I miss being asked when I am due or what I am having
- I miss fantasizing about being a mother
Things I look forward to:
- When she calls me mommy
- When she takes her first step
- When she giggles
- When she reaches for me
- Fixing boo boos and uh ohs
- First Christmas, birthday, Halloween, etc.
- Family Vacations
- Hugs
- Kisses
- Family portraits
- A full night of sleep
- Play dates
- Tea Parties
- Dress Up
- Barbies

I am exited, scared, happy and sad all at the same time and all for different reasons.
