Missing the bump

Hey, girlies~~
lol this might be a weird question:
I have a friend that said she nicknamed her growing belly and for about 8 months (since she didn't know the sex of her baby til she was born), she called her tummy Ralfy (because she was sick the entire pregnancy). After her daughter Maryn was born, she realized that "Ralfy" was no more and she was no longer pregnant. I was just wondering, does everyone go through missing their bump after the baby's born? Does knowing the sex of the baby before he/she is born help with that... just making it more real that he/she was in there and you don't have to miss the bump?
Any thoughts?  
Cassie & her bump ^_^

i MISS MY BUMP SOOO MUCH I KNEW THAT I WAS HAVIN CHE BUT ONLY ME AND MY MAM FOUND OUT N DIDNT TELL NOONE ELSE... I JUS CALLED HIM THE BUMP LOL AND EVEN NOW HES HERE HE STILL GETS CALLED MY BUMP EVEN THOU MY PREGNANCY WAS NOOOOT EASY NEITHER WAS LABOUR EITHER I REALLLLY REALLLY MISS THE KICKS N HICCUPS IN MY TUMMY AND MY GROWIN BUMP! NOW IM JUS SPLUGE! LOL

I still got my bump but Ima miss it soooo MUCH!

I'm thinking I'm probably going to miss my bump with the kicks and stuff too. My pregnancy has been great... no morning sickness!   lol that's funny, I've nicknamed my belly "Bump" too  ... well, I guess the credit goes to my hubby 'cause he keeps calling him/her Bump.   I kind of wanted to pick a nickname for my belly that would work after the baby's born, but there isn't really much out there... I guess "Bump" will have to work. lol  

i did with my son for about a months or 2 but then i got over it but i also did not name it

I really miss feeling Dalton kick and move around,

i named mine fishy  

I TOTALLY miss my belly!!! I think I miss feeling the baby inside and just sharing that experience just between the 2 of us....plus I think being prego is the most beautiful thing! We knew at 19 weeks that sex of the baby, but I knew from the beggining he was gonna be a boy.....I didnt name my belly or anything...lol I did make a belly cast though...so weird to look at it now...and see how HUGE it was!!!
