Anyway, in some ways I can’t believe I’m already two-thirds of the way done with my first pregnancy. Yet at the same time…I can’t believe I’m ONLY two-thirds of the way done with my first pregnancy!!
In reflecting on all of this, I’ve come up with a "Top 10 List Of Things I Look Forward To Come July 29, 2010".
I look forward to:
10. being able to see the lower half of my body again without twisting like a contortionist.
9. being able to bend over (or even just bending forward to reach something!) comfortably.
8. being able to fit into my own pajama pants and stop borrowing Eric’s. It’s quite the sight, trust me.
7. being able to pee less frequently. This will definitely result in a cost savings for us as well as I tend to overuse any paper products I get my hands on. Conservationists would have their way with me if they knew. Shhh...
6. being able to sleep on my back again. Side sleeping ALL. NIGHT. LONG. is for the birds.
5. being able to stop watching the scale to make sure I’m gaining baby weight at the appropriate speed. My OB has put the fear of God in me. Truth. She's practically got me thinking if I take that extra bite of cake, my child will suffer in the most gruesome of ways.
4. being able to workout without having to monitor my heart rate. Oh, and to bicycle without my knees knocking into my belly. Awesome.
3. being able to eat seafood, select fish, and select cheeses again.
2. being able to have a glass of red wine. Or two. Or three. Stop judging.
BUT…all of this I do without too much complaining because the numero uno thing I look forward to is…
1. being able to meet our new son and watch him grow and develop. Awh, shucks.
See you soon, little guy!
