Last 3 weeks or 1st 3 weeks?

Which did you prefer, the last 3 weeks of pregnancy or the 1st 3 weeks after birth?

I remember being swollen, struggling to get out of bed, being scared I will fall into labor, and wondering what my baby would look like. I wanted him in my arms already, I couldn't wait to stop being pregnant.

Then I meet him, but I still struggled to get out of bed, scared he would stop breathing and checking every 2 minutes, and happy he looked like me. Missed being pregnant because I didn't have to move a muscle to feed him then.
