I became really sick of development a few years back, but then I became a contractor and found I started to enjoy it again. So I suspect it was just doing the same thing for too long.
It is rewarding when you deliver something, or just get to a point of something working. What I'm finding more and more though is that I enjoy the part of my job which is working with other people, i.e. talking to users, having technical discussions with other developers etc., but sitting down alone at a computer and writing or debugging code often bores me to death.
It's probably natures way of telling me it's time to move into management.

if I could make the same money doing something else, I'd drop everything and start in the next 10 seconds, the only time I want to see a computer again is when I upload the latest jepps/garmin airspace routes before I climb into an amphibious beaver.......... that and not having to wear shoes
the pregnancy stories are true, about 1/2 month in you won't be allowed near her breasts, about 4/5 in she'll be gagging for it, after the birth expect to wait a while (2-3 months longer if it's a difficult birth) and did I mention lack of sleep ?

Originally posted by zeitghostI had exactly one contract that I actually enjoyed... ruined it for the rest of the tedious crap that I did.
Then along came PCs, you could have one at home, you could program for fun!! I worked on integrating home and work, learning languages etc on my own and shifting my career focus, so that it wouldn't be just a job any more. Ever since then it's been less rewarding, if not an outright disappointment.

I don't have any experience of this situation myself, but from what I have been told, around about five months gone your wife will get very horny. After the birth you wont be aloud anywhere near for two years.

She suppresses her sex drive with food at the moment eating for two and all that plus the fact she’s always tired at the moment, I’ve pretty much given up on the idea for another few months.

Originally posted by KyajaeI was once told by my sister that when a woman is preggars, her sex drive goes through the roof and stays there until size makes it impossible for a bit of rumpey-pumpey. Wot's gone wrong, Jed?
