It's the little things rant

in Pregnant after a Loss
I've mentally been making a list of the little dumb things I'm looking forward to post baby. Obviously none of it compares to my having my son. Still totally vent worthy though.

Here are my additions off the top of my head. What's on your list?

1 plain boring missionary sex. Ha! Something has to be said for forced creativity in the bedroom but seriously already. This bump has gotten too big to do much of anything and not feel and look like a whale.
2 painting my toes and not looking like a preschool art project.
3 shaving my legs in a standing shower without feeling like its aerobics.
4 actually seeing my crotch. Heaven only knows what it looks like down there.

Humor me. What are you looking forward to?

BPF 2. Baby Boy "Roo" 1/20/12 Heartbeat 160b/m 2/15/12 Said goodbye 2/20/12

BPF 3. Rainbow Baby Boy "Creed"  4/28/12 Born healthy and alive 1/5/13

BFP 4. "Rainbow 2.0" 8/17/14 due 4/28/15

    1. A beer. A nice, cold, icy beer.
    2. Being able to shave my legs without it either looking like a murder took place in my bathroom, or it being a group effort. There is nothing appealing about dh "helping."
    3. Being able to eat without first considering how bad the heartburn will be afterwards. Who knew water could cause so much pain?
    4. Sex of any kind. Between the size of my bump and the SPD, sex is just not an option.


    Thanks! That was fun!

    No joke!!! I got bad heartburn from water with DD and am really hoping I can get around it this time...

    And for my list:

    1. Not having to wonder when I stand up from peeing whether more is going to leak out as soon as I pull up my pants.

    2. Not having my pelvis let out a monstrous crack every time I stand up / bend over and make me feel like I need to see a chiro 15x / day.


    BFP1: DD1 born April 2011 at 34w1d via unplanned c/s due to HELLP, DVT 1 week PP

    1.  Sushi.  Tuna rolls and crazy rolls (tuna, shrimp tempura, and cucumber)

    2.  Wine without guilt (I've had an occasional glass)

    3.  No more heartburn

    4.  Like PP, seeing my crotch.  I get waxed every 4 weeks, but I can't get to the ingrowns...it's weird.

    But mostly sushi and wine.

    1. I really want a shot of patron

    2. A cold hard salami sandwich not toasted with all the veggies. (No mind gutter thinking lol)  

    3. I also get waxed every 4 weeks so I don't have to worry about shaving but with my ingrown hair I have to ask DH to get them. I actually like getting them but now I have to have him get it. Yes I'm blessed he will do it for me

    4. Feeling comfortable in my clothes, maternity clothes are comfy and I love my bump but there is nothing like putting on a pair of skinny jeans, and heels..

    5. Not wanting to sleep all day. I truly can't do anything at night unless I nap before.
