Things I miss

Since I'm not working and just waiting for baby to arrive I've had plenty of time to ponder things and daydream at home. I thought I would make a list of the things I miss most about not being pregnant! Even Chris has mentioned the fact that it seemed like so long ago he can't picture me not pregnant! ha ha

Anyway the top things I miss are: Foods: Sushi mmmmmmm..... sushi tango I heart you!! Feta cheese, lunch meats, lots of coffee, beer, bloody mary's, and of course wine!!! I have been daydreaming about these things often.

Activities: Running, jogging, exercise, etc.. Now I know most people would say you can exercise when your pregnant, but I really could not. I got light headed and sharp abd pains right from the beginning of pregnancy whenever I would try to exercise. I can not wait to go to the gym and feel the high of a good workout or run!

Sleeping: Of course I sleep, but not through the night without the help of ambien or benadryl. I dread the night time knowing that it will be a battle between bathroom trips and groaning to reposition myself every 5 min to find a comfy position.

Of course last I would have to mention that I miss the feeling of being in control of my own body! Every time I look down at my feel and ankles I think who's body is this, It's not mine!! Months ago I realized that I was just along for this ride and our baby girl was calling the shots. I would watch my body transform itself into what feels like a weak, waddly old lady!

Ok so I'm done ranting and complaining now. Next month you will see me blog about all of the things I miss about being pregnant and what it was like to sleep whenever I wanted! ha ha Really I have been very very lucky and had an easy pregnancy with no difficulties. I have been blessed that everything is normal and baby has been healthy and I know that tons of women would kill to have an uncomplicated pregancy. So indeed I am very grateful for that. I will mention that chris and I are just getting very impatient because we can't wait to meet our little girl. We want to see her now! We know that it is so close and that is the part that is hard. Waking up every morning thinking maybe today will be the day I go into labor!! Until then I am left trying to pass the time with silly post on my blog. We are keeping are fingers crossed that this will be the last week of pregancy! :)
