Remember when ...

... I could breathe out of my nose?
... I didn't get a splitting headache every day at 130pm?
... I could walk from one end of the room without running out of breath?
... I could drink a cold beer at the end of the day?
... My fingernails didn't resemble Wolverine's talons every 9 days without trimming?
... I wasn't up 5 times a night to pee 3 drops of urine?
I am being pissy. What are your 'remember whens'?

I didn't snore...
My boobs fit into my bras...
I was interested in sex....
I didn't have to question if anything I'm eating is going to harm my baby...
I could get work done without checking the Bump or BGP every 30 minutes...
Sleeping in on the weekends was a given?
You could meet up with friends for drinks, dinner or a movie without planning it 3 weeks in advance and only around bedtime scheduals?
You went to bed and got up only when the alarm woke you?
When looking like a tiger was only at Halloween, unlike now, when everyday I look like a tiger thanks to all of those stretch marks.
You could watch tv LIVE?!? A dvr just seemed like a cool waste of money, but now I can't live without one.
Sorry all mine are pre-kids related.
...I could make it from my office to my train platform in 7 minutes?
...I could roll over in bed or get off the couch without grunting, moaning, or saying "ouch"?
...I wasn't nauseous and cheese was my most favorite thing in the whole world?
...I could sneeze without searing pain shooting through my groin?
...my breath didn't smell like a small animal died in my mouth?
Ooo this is a good one!!! I agree!
all of the above plus
... i could go out in public without makeup cause my zits were minimal! (oh how i miss that SO much)
... i loved meat. now i cant stand anything but fish!
.....my ass didn't sound like a one man marching band
.....my hooha wasn't so engorged that it felt like it had been drop kicked
Plus lots of yours. I would miss sex more if I wasn't afraid my jungle would eat him alive.
oh those are good ones! agreed!
Hahahahahaha! This. Totally.
Is it bad that I actually like no zippers? I pee so much now that I'm afraid if I had zippers I wouldn't get my pants down in time, and I'd wet myself.
....I deserved my nickname...energizer bunny.
....I didn't randomly grunt when picking up the dogs' toys off the floor.
...my ankles weren't twice their normal size at the end of the day.
...finding pantyhose wasn't an epic journey to the maternity store.
I remember when...
I could run errands without having to pee at every store I go to.
It wasn't a task to shave my legs and lady junk.
I wasn't so paranoid about what I eat,what that little pain was,and why I haven't felt the baby kick in 20 seconds.
I didn't check the toilet paper every time I wipe just to make sure there's NO spotting.
I didn't have to TRY to poop.
I could have a vodka/pineapple at the end of a rough week.
Everything stated in all the PPs and on.
I could eat food without heartburn.
I could wear cute panties without stupid panty liners (wallet has more of those than cash)
I didn't have to concentrate on fiber, water, bowels like I was 70
..all the above too
....I had a waistline
....I could sleep on my stomach
....I could drink margaritas
...I didn't have to pee every 20 minutes
...I could sleep on my back
...I could drink more than 2 cups of coffee a day
...I could sleep a full glorious 8 hours without pee or insane pregnancy nightmares waking me up
...I could wear a belt.....oh how I miss my belts!!
...I had the energy to clean my entire house in one day. Now I have to break it up into a few days because I tire or my hips feel like they are going to break after a while.
Ugh...I could go on. Good thing we love these babies so much! We sure do put up with a lot of crap!
Oh one more...
....I could brush my teeth with toothpaste without puking in the sink. Bleh!
Awesome posts ladies, still laughing at some of them...here's mine:
...when I could relax with a bottle, I mean, glass of red wine
...I could shave anything easily without a deep breath in and a 'here goes'
...when I had other thoughts in my head besides 'strollers, c-sections and baby movements'
...when my husband would still 'go on top' without fear of squishing the baby
...when i could order whatever i wanted at a restaurant without going to my phone to google 'is it okay to eat ____when pregnant"
...when rolling over in bed didn't make me wake up to pain in my groin (thank you round ligaments) which then makes me realize i also, concurrently, have to pee
...when my nipples didn't have wierd dark spots (wtf???)
...when pretty much all movies and most commercials didn't make me cry
...when i wasn't soooo thirsty all the freaking time
and btw, I totally don't miss the zippers...maternity pants are the greatest and I have no intention of ever going back
...and at the risk of sounding like a hormonal sappy pregnant lady, for the record, feeling the baby move totally outweighs all the things and makes my entire list worthwhile:)
ohh and i forgot an important one...
...when i could get up and down from a chair without making the noise 'huuahh' or something like it
All of the above.
Plus, I could have a conversation with my FI w/o crying about something crazy. Oh the hormones.
This could be my list exactly. Plus add eat a Subway ham sandwich.
...When I could eat tons of sushi to my hearts content
...When I could sleep through the night without having to pee
...When I still loved to wear makeup and make myself presentable in public
...When I didn't have to wear knee highs for varicose veins and not feel 90
...When I wanted to do more on a day off than sit on the couch
...When passing gas didn't clear the room
...When I could drink wine every day of the week mmmmmm
EDD 1/31/13, MC May 17. EDD 3/31/13, MC July 26. I miss you so much already my angel loves
..when I could eat ethnic food without feeling like I was swallowing glass
...when I wasn't constantly shrouded by this 'smell' and wasn't crop dusting strangers all day
...when shopping for clothes actually made me feel better about myself
...when strangers just left me alone
Finally, someone else who's baby has given them bad breath! My friends thinks I'm crazy for constantly chewing gum or eating mints. It's really annoying!
the headache one is me EVERYDAY!!!!
When I could sleep through the night.....
When I didn't puke at the sight of a food I used to love....
