Ok so theres the usual.... Have a glass of wine, some brie and pate but what about the things you took for granted before but miss now?

For me I cant wait to be able to pee like a normal person and feel I have peed rather than end up heading back to the loo a few moments later.

Cant wait to be able to reach a shelf in my kitchen.... I cant reach it myself now because of my bump!

Being able to turn over in bed without feeling its such a chore!

Being able to shave my legs with ease

Be able to get out of the bath with ease instead of feeling like a beetle on its shell!

Anyone else?!

Being able to pick up stuff I've dropped on the floor! I get so sick of the effort and pain just doing this simple task! Also I want to sleep spreadeagled on my FRONT! God I love sleeping on my front. Also being able to have a nice glass of wine (though will have to wait with the breast feeding).

Sleep on my back and tummy, go for a bike ride, roll over in bed without looking and sounding like a beached whale, do normal jobs without having to sit down every 5 mins. Drink wine, wear normal shoes, etc.

I just can't picture not being pregnant I can't remember what it was like?!!
I can't wait to have a few drinks and have a runny egg.. I can't wait to be skinny again and be able to fit in not frumpy dainty clothes.. Can't wait to be able to have sex without my bump getting in the way making it a bit weird haha

Food, to have my appetite back, to fancy what I want to eat and to enjoy eating it! Only 8+3 so a while to go, I really hope a little that I start to enjoy food again soon!

Riding my horse and riding my motorbike

Can't wait... This looooong summer has been incredibly boring without them

I want to sleep on my back again.

I would love to eat a bowl of raw cake mix too

Plus I would like to have normal sex again. Have not really been up for it since 12 week scan and poor OH has been going crazy! (Very patient and understanding but crazy!)

Rainbow, I'm with you there. Having had no sickness all the way throughout and thinking I was incredibly lucky. I'm now at a place where my lungs feel like they live at the back of my throat and my stomach just below. The baby is pushing up all of my internal organs to the point where if I have food and then a drink, I'm almost immediately sick in my mouth!! Blerrghh

I can't wait to cycle again, really miss it.

Also, sleeping on my back, drinking gin & tonic, wearing nice shoes.

I've been a bad pregnant person, and been riding my bike the whole time - in fact, I bought a new one since I got pregnant. Walking is a massive pain (slow, ungainly, stitch down both sides of bump), cycling feels like floating in comparison.

Have a cold glass of beer in the beer garden without any tuts or stares!!

I brought alcohol last night, it wasnt actually for me, but the grief I got made me feel so embarrassed my cheeks went beetroot!

Being able to put my knickers on like a normal person
