Re: what are you going to miss? POLL

  • if i end up with stretch marks, i'm going to my my non stretch marked belly.

    i will also miss not having to worry about anyone besides myself- don't get me wrong, i can't wait to worry about a baby- but having time to just sit & read for hours will probably not happen for a long time.

  • Boobs without stretch marks. I hate stretch marks.
  • Probably spur-of-the-moment stuff with Nate.

     Whether it's running out to get sundaes because we just want one even if it's at 11:30pm, or taking off to the mountains for a weekend.

     I agree.

  • I don't know. As of now I am getting used to my boobs, so yeah I might miss that. I like my bump, makes me feel "sexy" in a strange sort of way. I will miss wearing "full bottom" panties w/o FI calling them granny panties. I will eating whatever I want when I am hungry because I am doing it for "baby." Embarrassed

    And maybe the best has yet to come....

  • I think I might miss being able to fly by the seat of my pants.  But it'll be worth it!

    Being selfish... DH and I used to do what we wanted, when we wanted with no worries!

  • sleeping in on saturdays. going out for hh and not having to tell anyone. just those little on a whim moments you can't have when you have a LO to consider.
  • I had great abs and needed very little exercise to keep my thin frame. I'm guessing all that is going by the wayside (at least the ease of maintaining it!) at least till I'm done having children.

    I'm also going to miss eating whatever I want whenever I want it because I'm going to want to set a good example for my son (and I don't like the idea of saying "Well it's ok for mommy to have oreo's for breakfast, but not for you.")

  • I'm nervous about personal time. I know DH and our local family will be very helpful and supportive, but it's very intimidating knowing that I am 100% responsible for this helpless creature, and I can't control what it will need and when. What if I want a bath, need to get away, just want to be alone. I hear that one's mindset shifts the second you hold the baby, but what if it isn't true....

     

    ooops! Lurking on 2nd tri, how bold! :)

  • I will miss the baby kicking. I love feeling her.

    And anything that remains forever changed about my body, I will forever mourn.

  • I'm going to miss sitting outside with DH and staying up way too late on work nights enjoying some wine and talking about everything. We used to do that all of the time and it was absolutely lovely until the awful headache at work the next day.

    What I'm going to miss is totally outweighed by what I look forward to though!

  • I was a competitve athlete and I will miss running or cycling for hours and training for races. I know I can still race recreationally, and I will, but I barely had time to fit in my training sans baby so I am not expecting to have that life again anytime soon.

  • I will miss the ability to just get up and go whenever I want. I'll also miss happy hour during the summer with my friends and laying in bed for hours on the weekend. I'm totally ready for what lies ahead of me though and I can't wait for it all to begin Smile.
  • As it stands right now I miss taking care of my cats and my house. I can't take care of may cats because I am told cleaning litter is HORRIBLE for you and I can't clean my house because of the chemicals. I know it may sound weird but I miss a clean bathroom because DH isn't cleaning it and I can't.
  • Being able to go whenever or wherever we want.  We're taking one last trip to visit our friends in Dallas in a few weeks.  I'm sure we'll go after the baby is born, she has told me I have no choice but we won't be able to stay at their house.

  •  My boobs. Crying

    I had nice full breasts that had not a mark on them, not anymore. I have strech marks on them and they just aren't as pretty. DH doesn't care, but I do.

    They make chemical free cleaners...Or I prefer using natural stuff like lemons and baking sode to clean and recently vinegar as a disenfectant.

  • I'm going to miss going to Lexington for all the UK football home games this year.  Tailgating.  Other than that, nothing really.
  • I will miss being able to leave the house with just my keys and wallet.  Or leaving for a trip with a toothbrush and a change of clothes.  Now I'm going to have a checklist of all the things I have to remember every time I leave the house.  (diapers, wipes, bottles, pacifiers, etc)

  • Good question.
    I'll miss sleeping in with husband, my PP boobs, probably my PP belly and going to concerts without worry!

  • I'm terrified that I'm going to miss alone time with my husband.  I know they say once the baby is born your focus changes but I'm so afraid things will be different.  The whole time we have been together its obviously been about the two of us and that was it.  Now we have a whole little person to consider before doing anything.  I know it will be worth it though so I try not to think about it.

  • I am going to miss sleep!  I've been averaging about 9-10 hours per night while pregnant, and it's made pregnancy so much easier! 

    However, after BF-ing is over, I look forward to re-introducing myself to caffeine.  I miss you, coffee!!

  • sleeping in...  Sad
