A real massage! I bought a groupon for prenatal massage, and while they are still nice, it's just not the same as being able to lay on my stomach and have them really work out all the kinks.
I want my waist back for both vain and practical reasons (like bending at said waist), wine by the bottle, and to feel like a real human being again... not a gestating teletubby.
Wine, sushi, carb filled foods & desserts. I could list a couple dozen things that fall into the last 2 cagetories. This stupid GD diet doesn't allow for too many carbs at once.
Besides sleep and sex? I can't wait to have wine, coffee and real imported feta cheese! I told DH that after the delivery I want feta cheese with some crusty bread and a glass of wine.
Comfortable sleep... More options for sexy time positions... Some sort of a mixed alcoholic beverage (at this point, I will take just about anything)... And (on the GD train) a big glass of orange juice (last time I tried that my blood sugar jumped crazy high and felt like total crap during a funeral... It was awful)
I have another to add, I can't wait until my time is my own again. I mean, obviously there's going to be a baby who wants things when he wants them, thank you very much, but I won't be sitting at work twiddling my thumbs while my replacement takes three times as long to get shit done as I do, but I've been told I have to let her fly on her own and not do anything. I have SO MUCH SHIT to do at home, I'd rather be bumping from there while I do stuff than bumping from here where I sit in my little office and do nothing...
@ugabamafans is the smoothie king in the shopping center with moes and mellow mushroom? I live further down windward on the other side of 400 and there's a Robeks which is really yummy! they have smoothies and fresh juices... I think I'm going to have to go now.
Victory Golden Monkey, Sam Adams Summer Ale, Goose Island 312, Corona, Bud Light Lime, Magic Hat, and the list goes on and on and on........ mmmmmm Beer
Late to the party but I just have too much I want to add:
1) As much coffee as I want (consistent string of caffeine). A lot of places don't sell decaf iced coffee which is a BIG BUMMER.
2) The bottle of wine my MIL bought me to drink after baby is here. Can't wait to have that and cold summer beers. Also, I bought my sister a sangria book for her bday and I figured we could make sangria every night during our week long vacation this summer. CAN'T WAIT.
3) The ability to dance it out to say i yi yi w/H as spastically as I want without getting weird tightening sensations in my belly
4) The ability to go on speed boats. I was told I cannot go on a speed boat this pregnant because the risk that I hit my abdomen is too great. We already had to turn down one boating trip
5) To not make myself pee 4 times as I'm getting ready for bed, just to get in bed and worry that i'm going to have to pee again before i fall asleep
6) The option to wear some of my cute summer clothes.
7) My ambitious and motivated brain back and not be such a zombie at work
8) No more extra attention on me than needs to be!
9) Shared responsibility for the welfare of this baby with H. It'll be nice to not be the only one that can take care of her/who's life has to change!
10) normal sized feet
11) The ability to help my H with some household projects that involve lifting
12) The ability to reassume normal shaving practices
13) The chance to meet my baby and to see my H as a dad. It's gonna be tiring, wonderful, horrible, awesome, scary and exciting!
Tequila. And eggs. I have not been able to even think of eating eggs this pregnancy even though I love them and usually have them every day for breakfast I also can't wait to sit down in the bathtub without getting stuck and I want to play on the floor with my toddler. And I want to exercise!! I've turned into a jello-ey land whale.
After thought/edit that I will blame on pregnancy brain, possibly tmi: I would also like to ride my husband like a pony without going into false labor. Then fall asleep on my stomach.
Anything with caffeine!! Not because I think it's bad, but because every time I have some my heart races and blood pressure hits the roof! I will get a large sweet tea from mcdonalds on our way home. Then I will have my English breakfast tea in the morning.
SHRIMP, actually seafood in general; be able to exercise without either being too nauseous to do so or too damn big and have it feel impossible to do so, reach my toes again, not have to pee every 5 minutes, a deli meat sandwich....
OMG, how could I forget? Actually laying on my belly again!! Also, the possibility of seeing my "area" again. After losing all that weight with the lap-band, it was kinda cruel to have to be all "Where'd it go?" again.... :-/
Re: Can't wait to have...
omg, this made me cry/laugh so hard.
