  • Oooo oooh me!  WINE, WINE, lots of wine and dying my hair that lovely espresso color.  The fumes are so bad, I'd rather not take my chances during pregnancy.

  • You can still eat sushi and feta cheese while you are pregnant.  Some people also occasionally have a glass of wine while pregnant as well.  I had a 4oz glass of wine the night before I went into labor with DS.
  • I remember the biggest thing that I missed when I was pregnant was the ability to sleep on my stomach. Also, I missed being able to see the stairs when I walked down them.

    Of course, sushi!  How could I forget sushi??

    The only things I give up are the hookers, blow and hard liquor.

    I don't give up the hookers, I just put them through a more stringent screening process.

  • I think I plan to drink wine when I'm KU. Not in excess, obviously, but a glass on a speical occasion is perfectly fine, IMO.

  • I was and will be pretty conservative when I was pregnant, so I'll be giving up a lot: alcohol (I did have some wine in my 3rd tri), caffeine, sugar substitutes, cold cuts, sushi, rare steaks, soft cheeses, non-pasteurized cheeses, raw eggs (cookie dough, runny eggs, etc), and any drugs (advil, tylenol, cold meds, etc).

    Most things you don't have to give up, but like I said, I go on the conservative end and just give up everything.

    It is nice to have these things, but to me it is not a consolation for not being pregnant.

  • The thing I missed the most while being pregnant was being able to give 110% at the gym.  Towards the tail end even walking on the treadmill at an incline felt like a marathon.

    You're trying, really hard.

    Did the "at least you already have one" post do it for you, too? 

  • Since I work at a coffee and wine shop, I'm going to miss my morning esspressos and sampling the wines after the tastings.
  • Coffee, wine, and sushi! Getting it all in while I can :
  • Skiing (downhill), cycling, going beast mode at Crossfit, tequila, scotch, Advil. Tho I'm only using Advil now for menstrual cramps (once AF actually shows), and only for CD 1 and 2. Oh, and probably, staying on my Hood to Coast relay team. I like to pretend that I'll be that cray preggo chick who can do it, but I suspect I won't be, and if I'm lucky enough to be expecting by August, I'll probably have to give up my spot. :P

    Yeah, still rather the KU but...I'll enjoy the things that will be off-limits for now. Today's CD1 and I just killed it at Xfit. Rahr!

    Oh and dirty vodka martinis.

    FIFY.  I bought giant spanish olives yesterday and thought of you.

    Stripping, I'll miss the fun of it all and the $$$. I would continue when I'm KU but DH is not on board with that plan.

    Instead of stripping you could stick with online fetishism.  As long as you have a webcam I am sure there are plenty of people that would pay top dollar to watch a hot pregnant woman.

    You can strip for me anytime.

    No bouncing on trampolines, yo.

    I'm sure a little bouncing never hurt anybody, but I'm pretty sure showing kids in my classes how to do back tucks while 30 weeks pregnant probably ain't gonna happen.

     It gets a little ugly when your belly blinds you from seeing what you're doing.
