What are you missing most.....

[Mimi1977]

Heavens anyone would rather be in any other position but ours and being pregnant is (for most) great (exluding the piles, the heartburn, constantly getting up for a wee...!) but is there anything you do miss but need to avoid? For some reason I seem to want the stuff I can't have more when I'm pregnant. My top three are:

*Soft Boiled Eggs
*Hot Baths
*Wine!

Only about 9 weeks so know I'll soon be adding sleeping on my tummy to the list!

8 weeks till my due date, I'm missing vino, and now that the sun's out I'm craving Pimms!

Everyone seems to eat peanuts around me.

I really miss riding my horse, and as the other lady, wearing my favourite clothes, I'm fed up of boring maternity clothes. I have a wedding to go to in 5 weeks and am going to look like a beached whale.

I miss a good nights sleep, having enough breath to get up the stairs without sounding like my nan, I don't seem to be able to enjoy chocolate -- anyone else find that?

I also miss the steam room at the gym. I've already planned my first meal for once the baby's born and its going to include goats cheese, yum yum.

But hey -- they keep telling me it's all work it.

Having energy.
Not wanting to vomit at the thought of eating.
Having a waist (at three months I just look a bit tubby, am looking forward to the bump making an appearance!)

Oh, and prosciutto.

Beer, DH's birthday today and he was drinking my favourite pint, boo!

being pain free

being able to get off the settee without any help

being able to eat without gaviscon

I should have bought shares in Gaviscon before this pregnancy as like last time I go through a bottle every two days, and just swig from the bottle.(saves on the washing up!!)

I miss go to my fitness classes (Body combat,Body attack and Body pump) not allowed to go due to placenta previa.

My jeans, only bought two pairs of maternity trousers and soooooo fed up wearing them.

ALCOHOL.........at the moment any type..Cider, Wine, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Southern Comfort...

I miss being able to sleep past 7.30am without waking up with cramp in my pelvis due to sleeping on my left side all night, is to much trouble and need help turning over that its just easier to get up.

Didn't know I couldn,t eat Mr Whippy, ate half of one yesterday

being able to enjoy pizza, during my pregnancy I had a complete aversion to cheese, so i used to take everything and just eat the base

I miss tea. Can't bear the taste anymore and I used to be a right tea belly. Am relieved to hear from others on the thread that it does wear off post birth.

Also mising blue cheese, pate and rare steak. Along with seafood, these are the only foods I am being strict about. Soft cheese is ok if its pasturised, so I have the occasional lump of Pié d'Angloys on crusty bread - yumm.

Not really missing booze, mainly because I just don't fancy it most of the time, and the odd occasion where I have wanted a beer or a glass of wine, I've allowed myself a small glass.
