One thing you aren't going to miss about pregnancy..

SheriBT · June 2009

Feeling like a turtle on my back when laying in bed. I hate that I have to swing myself around just to get into a comfortable position!

ugh. This.

Moving around when I'm trying to sleep is such a royal pain.

Vixey529 · June 2009

lol. I always describe myself like a turtle on its back, too!

I won't miss the fact that laying down is the only position that feels good to me. I can't even sit on my couch for longer than 5-10 mins. I have to lay down.

meryltheresa · June 2009

My swollen feet!

Squishycheeks · June 2009

I'm not going to miss finding new stretch marks on my butt just about every day...

matt&steph · June 2009

Oh there are a few things - Not sleeping comfortably, always having to eat and drink, and back pain.

Ekstasis · June 2009

Just one thing? ?laughs- The heaviness on my body.

jetgrrrl · June 2009

I'm with you, but it's the constant need to pee that I'm most eager to get rid of.

erino&chrish · June 2009

ONE thing? Is this a trick question? I could think of a zillion, but at this point what's bothering me the most is that I'm dying to be thinner and wear normal clothes again. So I will not miss being fat and in maternity clothes.

WendyBird&Chris · June 2009

The horrible throbbing hip pain and problems sleeping and walking because of it.

will's_littleone · June 2009

I'm sick and tired of my maternity clothes! And not being able to do everything around the house that I want to do like pick something up off the floor

shannon tundel · June 2009

Cankles

Han17nah39 · June 2009

I won't miss NOT being able to fit into public bathroom stalls. I have to pee constantly and am geting tired of not being able to fit in the stalls. They are WAY too small for a pregnant woman's stomach...most of the time I can't get the door shut because my stomach is in the way!!! It's kinda funny actually, but annoying at the same time.

FirefightersBride · June 2009

my thighs rubbing together!

Mrs.Foreste · June 2009

Sleeping on my side, constant back pain, monster boobs, heartburn (never had it before).

I will very much miss feeling my LO moving around in my belly though!

soontobejesseng · June 2009

Hands down: The stinging/stretching/burning pressure from LO's feet crammed in my ribs all the time. I will be able to sit and sleep comfortably again after that is resolved!

malex · June 2009

Hemmorhoids.

krazikat99 · June 2009

There are too many to list. A short version would include:

swollen feet and hands

pain in abdomen

back pain

not being able to sleep

painful BH contractions

heartburn

meryltheresa:
My swollen feet!

THIS!

MrsBro6116 · June 2009

Heartburn, never got it before and I hate it!

newmum2b · June 2009

Here are a few just for the sake of complaining: Heartburn, hemmoroids and not dying my hair. I feel and look like a train wreck, ugh!

alicia023 · June 2009

Well lets see..

The cankles, peoples rude a$$ comments, being able to sleep, being able to pick things up when I drop them and there's like a ton more but those are my top picks

robbie3982 · June 2009

The discomfort. My skin feels like it's going to explode on my belly and my back feels like it's going to break in half. I'm definitely not going to miss the swelling either.

2006bride* · June 2009

How large and uncomfortable my boobs are. They seriously disgust me.

jonsdeedee · June 2009

cankles and general swelling of my body.

mrsburke · June 2009

Most of the time, I feel like a normal person who just happens to be having a baby.... and then I'll try to do something a "normal" person would try to do... like riding a bike, or going kayaking, or bending over to garden, or get out of chair and realize that I either can't do it or shouldn't do it. And that really annoys me.

This really hit me when DH and I were on our babymoon in the dominican and the resort wouldn't let me do anything including sailing or paddleboating (and yet the 6 year old children were allowed to do both!). I'm pregnant, not dying.

ashpierce · June 2009

Not going to miss the GD and having to eat such a restricted diet (I miss chocolate and sweet tea!) and living by the clock, eating 6x day and testing my blood sugar all the time...

woolseybaby · June 2009

I agree... It's hard to limit the list to just one. Right now: Cankles and swollen feet (they are so bad, strangers comment on them.), Swollen hands, which feel like I have arthritis, back pain, heartburn ( and waking up in the middle of the night because I am throwing up gastric juice in my mouth), having to pee all the time, and RLP.

afg · June 2009

I will not miss my shoes not fitting properly and being uncomfortable

I will not miss not being able to drink wine! lol

THIS I am soooo ready to be able to sleep on my stomach again!

jmstone · June 2009

I agree with you, I don't know who wouldn't! But I would have to say I'm looking forward to being able to poop like a normal person and the heartburn can leave at any time.?

Edit : Both of those things have just started in the past couple weeks - thought I had dodged them.?

(I'm going to have a hard time not feeling our LO inside but holding him/her on the outside will have to suffice. :-)??)

T&BMay142005 · June 2009

The pain I feel in my ribs from LO's butt/legs. Sometimes its so hard to tolerate, especially when I am sitting or driving.

one_more_girl · June 2009

Having contractions every 6-8 minutes for the last 6 days. Not being able to stand for more than 15 minutes without my feet swelling so much it hurts.
