  I also cant pick up DD, She is about 50 and it is just too much, and DS who is almost 37 pounds is getting rough too, tummy sleeping, stairs, bending over to tie shoes (I get really dizzy), Sitting as close to my desk as I need too LOL

  Lying on my stomach is getting uncomfortable. I also feel a little queasy when lying on my back. Side sleeping it is from here on out!

  I can't sneeze or cough without peeing my pants a little.  Sorry if that is TMI but it is equally shocking and annoying!

  I said goodbye to:

  
  

  - Good nights rest.  Pee pee pee.

  - Consistent eating schedule (I work and I like to plan...and holy cow I feel like a hobbit)

  - swordfish and tuna (big sushi fan)

  - any normal pants buttoned...even the "fat pants"

  - no more super high intensity work outs (also working out is inconsistent due to sleepiness urg to eat and pee all the time)

  - balance...I barely blumping and seriously my balance has gone to crap

  - clear skin

  
  

  Thats a lot of whining so things I've been given (other than my precious Sharkie)

  
  

  - my butt magically got super cute.  Seriously don't know how that happened but I'm rolling with it.

  - my hair is amazing.

  - my nails are so strong my hunny call them tallons

  - I'm not super cold all the time anymore!  No scaring of DH with my cold bum and feet

  - I can actually have conversations with women!  Most ladies and I don't seem to mesh well but having a baby in waiting has either warmed me up or them to me.  Either way this is a good thing.

  - people officially are taking my opinion on child rearing seriously (some people I know would invite conversation then if they didn't agree with what I said they would just say I'm not a mom yet.  I have had same convos more recently and none of that feedback for the same things)

  - the big O is now even more amazing.  Nature wins.

  Bending down to wash DD's hair in the tub is getting uncomfortable. I can also no longer drink wine... I'm still not over that one and this is my second time at this rodeo.

  I get short winded really easily, and lightheaded any time I bend over.  And I can't get rid of pimples!

  I have been having a hard time not being able to intervene when certain kiddos become aggressive at school.  I am kind of a control freak like that, but I know it's for my own safety.   

  I also miss being able to bend over all the way and wearing my cute skinny jeans and boots.

  Meal planning! Seriously eating something every two hours. Just had supper thirty min ago and already hungry. I'll eat a good snack before I shower, then I get in bed, then five min later after ive got myself all situated I'm starving again and off to the fridge.

  I am starting to have a hard time with lowering my sleeping toddler into the crib. My belly presses into the railing too much.

  I agree with the bending over! Tried to do it a couple times at work today and had to squat down to pick up the item. I work with athletes and have to sometimes get them up off the field and am so thankful to have event managers and coaches who after I assess them, do all the lifting. They are gonna have too

  I'm only 14w today and I'm already having difficulty painting my toe nails and shaving my legs. Pressing my thigh to my belly is uncomfortable already!

  I can't stand for long periods of time anymore without suffering. I was on my feet for 3 hours tonight at a church event and oh my gosh, my feet and my back are killing me!!!

  - echoing others on the pee! Up every 45 min - 1 hour at night peeing, and sometimes it's only a few dribbles- so frustrating!
  - shaving legs
  - washing back / butt in shower (sorry, sorry)
  - sit ups
  - shoe tying
  - walking around for hours without having the "fun tax" the next day (like, I'm exhausted the next day)
