Hands down, feeling the baby move and watching your belly roll and wiggle when they get active. Love it!

Feeling the baby move is not only the best part of pregnancy but a completely amazing experience that can't be explained. It's truly a miracle!

I loved everything about being pregnant. Feeling the baby move, knowing in my heart that I was building a new person, seeing how my husband would look at me with total adoration for the miracle we were making together.
And, on a purely selfish level, I loved all the attention. Never in my life was I doted on, catered to, and treated more like a princess than when I was pregnant. I never had to carry groceries, or drag a laundry hamper up or down the stairs. I was able to opt out of cooking on hot days, and bundle deep in blankets on cold ones. I liked being the focus of so much love.

The gentle baby kicks. Not the rolling ones, those creep me out.

Just creating life is the best part but that's kind of overall - I love being constantly aware that there is someone else with me.
Specifically my favorite part about pregnancy is the birth. I would do their labor and delivieries both again in an instant.

I love birth, too. I'd give birth again.
Plus, I love my body best when I'm about seven-eight months pregnant. That great, big belly is just amazing! I adore my pregnant belly. I also love maternity clothes. Honestly, I don't think I've ever felt more beautiful than I do when I'm pregnant. And when the baby moves... whole afternoons (okay, nights) can be spent just feeling those knobby little limbs poke around. It's just blissful. |

Laying down in the evening and the baby becoming active....definitely my favorite part.
