1. Feeling baby move! 😍 2. Travelling 3. Cuddling with DH. Or when he spontaneously starts rubbing my feet or back. 4. My dog. Especially when she decides to be affectionate 5. Sunshine. 6. The feeling of a really good pee 7. Danishes. (The Pastry) 8. Playing board games 9. My family 10. Swimming. Omg I want to go swimming!
(I'd like to put "sex" on here... But it's been 129 days. So that just seems...cruel haha)
1. Going to bed at a decent time (no later than 9, asleep by 9:45) 2. Phone calls with my sister (especially when driving - hands-free, of course! - we both have horrific road rage, but it is purely superficial and we just like having someone who understands our frustrations instead of trying to 51-50 us) 3. Snuggling with DH (I'm NOT a "snuggler," but when I am ... it's magical) 4. Snuggling with DD1 (she is also NOT a "snuggler," but sometimes we are and it's oh-so-sweet) 5. When DH does something really sweet and/or helpful (without prompting): cleans the kitchen, brings me lunch, "lets" me sleep in, surprises me with flowers, runs an errand I keep forgetting, etc. 6. Good music 7. Playing cards or a board game 8. Weather somewhere between Spring & Summer (cool at night, warm during day, minimal pollen-snow) 9. Going to the bathroom in peace/alone 10. Driving fast with the sunroof open/windows down (when safe to do so) on a beautiful day

@MamaK225 and @heml for me...the desire is there. And opportunity. In fact I'm going insane!! But being on bed rest for most of the pregnancy, and now still on pelvic rest..... Means no fun times for me! OB said not till 38 weeks. But pretty sure I'll be a whale with no ability or deaire to DTD by then lol I'm hooooooping he will at least clear me to allow orgasm before second trimester is up 😂

Slushies (this expat store just opened down the street with a slushy machine. He has made my life dreams come true just in time for summer and to be super pregnant) 6. Travelling 7. Trying to figure out what baby is doing in there sometimes. 8. Hanging out with our friends 9. Eating good food. 10. Sleeping and napping.
