I can't wait to push myself during workouts again. Also can't wait to not be uncomfortable sleeping, standing, walking.... ETC. lol. I know it will get worse and I'm not excited about that part.
I can't wait to sleep on my stomach again and have a day without heartburn! Blah. And it doesn't seem to matter what I eat (today so far just had raisin bran and heartburn is raging!)
A good mixed drink, a TALL glass of wine, sleeping on my stomach, sex without bleeding (sorry if TMI!), being able to enjoy foods again after not having much of an appetite for the last five months, and being able to dance the night away without worry. I know the alcohol will have to wait while I'm breastfeeding but when I'm able to have it....yes lawd!
1. Take a scalding hot bath. (My favorite bath temperature is like, one degree below what would cook me alive, so obviously I have not indulged while pregnant and I miss my piping hot baths SO MUCH.)
2. WINE.
3. Drink ALL the caffeine.
4. Be able to eat without having acid reflux immediately.
5. Related to #4, be able to drink water without burping five times.
Ya I can't pick one, I want Jimmy Johns, wine, a margarita, go for a run, run in a 5k, enjoy summer without sweating like a pig... I could go on.
Edited to add: from PP comments I had just started running a couple months before pregnancy and when I asked my OB office about running they said don't do anything you're not used to doing. Since I had just started running I didn't feel comfortable continuing and putting even a 1% risk on my pregnancy. Chances are I was 99% safe but that was a choice I made. And I've been so tired ever since conception that I literally couldn't run either even if I was told I could.
@staahci810@kaos16 Ah yes it wasn't that simple for me unfortunately : ( I had 2 ops and 3 rounds of ivf over the last 15 months in order to fall pregnant so when I tried that approach with the Drs it completely backfired on me as they weren't entirely happy with me running hence hubby's request to rather wait. So I basically have to get fit from scratch!!
I'm going to wake up and brush my teeth without gagging, go for a run, get in a hot tub, eat a cold turkey sandwich with some soft cheese, plop down on the couch on my stomach, bake some cookies and eat a piece of raw dough. Yessss.
Until my placenta moves I can't have sex... so my number one is sex. Followed by wine. Followed by not being emotional. Then, of course, feeling comfortable in clothes.
I'm sure I'll get flamed for this but I'm surprised no one has said "roll the fattest blunt with the dankest weed and hot box my entire house (after taking the baby to grandma's for the night)."
Although I hope no one on here actually talks like that lol
Wearing my old wardrobe, (which hopefully is within a few months of having baby) not having the most whacked out dreams that literally make me lose sleep, because I'm thinking about why in gods name that would ever be running through my head, and waking up in the middle of the night to pee at least once. Although, my waking up will be to tend to a crying newborn, and probably still pee while I'm up. =P
Similar to others - all the wine, sleeping on my back and stomach, and running as FAST and HARD as I can (I have been running through pregnancy - I'm a kinda crazy runner and ran up to my due date last time- but I miss being able to go all out SO. MUCH.)
I can't wait to diet and exercise! I'll be so happy when I start losing weight, this is my first pregnancy and gaining weight has been something I've mentally/emotionally struggled with big time. I feel so fat and I can't wait until I can fit into my old clothes again. Also looking forward to drinking wine with my husband.
I cannot wait to be able to bend over without pain or struggling. Sleep comfortably without hip pains. And loosing weight again although I've only gained 3lbs so far!
I was working out with a trainer, hiking, running, lifting weights ... overall killing it at the gym 5-6 days a week. I can't wait to go back in there and regain my health. I feel like an unmotivated blob that is being held captive by a helpless baby. Oh, and I can't wait for a glass of red wine and being able to go in a hot tub/sauna!
Re: After baby, I can not wait to.....
Being able to take cold medication and Aleve for headaches.
Regular normal non self conscious sex. (Although my husband love me body now)
Normal boobs and bras
No hip pain or nausea
All things raw for sushi
Big coffees!!
Being able to dye my hair without guilt. (Still debating if I will)
Fitting my pants again
