PERSONAL: Not Look Forward To/Looking Forward To

Here are the things I remember I hated the most about being pregnant and then the things I loved. And assuredly what I will love and hate again this time around!

Hated

  • Not being able to poop
  • Charlie Horses waking me up in the morning
  • Heartburn, mostly after lunch
  • Nausea in the mornings
  • Insomnia (only mildly though)
  • Having to pee every hour
  • Not having a steady flow of pee from month four - end (trickled)
  • Not being able to drink coffee without guilty complex kicking in
  • Not being able to take ibuprofen for arthritic knees
  • Did I mention the no-poop thing?
  • Not looking pregnant for five months and instead looking like a bloated doughnut-hoarder
  • Not being able to reach my feet
  • No seeing my ho-ha for two months
  • Unsolicited advice came from every angle


Liked

  • People were way friendly to me
  • Everyone opened doors, let me cut lines
  • I could use the bathroom anywhere I went
  • People would strike up conversations with me everywhere
  • I got free cookies at sandwich shops
  • Feeling the baby move in the third trimester
  • Pushing on one side of the belly and having the baby push back
  • Sudden bursts of energy and love for everyone and everything
  • That I can eat whatever I feel like eating (meaning sweets and stuff) without feeling guilty about getting fat
  • BIG BOOBS
  • Wearing bikini bottoms that cover my fat and blaming it on the baby bump
  • Being crabby and having an excuse you can't argue with
  • My husband cleans more and gets me water
  • BIG BOOBS!!!!
