What are the non-prego activities you miss?

There are things that I miss SO much that I am DYING to do once Ava is born. Not just drink a bottle of wine, but actual activities.

I can't wait to:

Ride a rollercoaster again.
Run up and down the stairs.
Shop and actually have the energy to browse, not just run in, run out.
Go out to dinner and fit in a boothChat Icon
Scrub my shower properly.
BEND OVER AND TOUCH MY TOES!
TIE MY SHOES!
HELL, WEAR SHOES!
Sit pretzel style on the floor.


I know I will probably miss being pregnant at some point, I'm already feeling sentimental about my belly (go figure!) but those are definitely some things I'm looking forward to doing again!

DH and I are big water and amusement park fans so I'll miss that this summer. But the one thing I'm most looking forward to is sleeping on my tummy again.

-Not worrying every second of the day (that something is wrong with the babies)
-Getting massages
-Getting a mani/pedi then those quick massages and hoping they're not massaging the wrong points
-Drinking coffee (on of my aversions now)
-Eating sausages, bacon and coldcuts
-Fitting in my bikinis
-Spin and aerobics classes

Oh! The belly, I want to sleep on my belly. Other than that, I guess I miss having more energy and wearing "normal" clothes!!

RUNNING! This baby's going to be in the stroller while I train for my 6th marathon next spring as punishment! But I'm sure he/she will LOVE it...

And cooking - the food aversions have ruined my cooking abilities. Chat Icon

ETA: A good massage on my upper back and feet - my massage therapist won't go near there.

Running
Snuggling DH (he is jealous of the snoogle b/c it has replaced him)
Drinking
and eating *whatever* I want - 3rd trimester m/s has just appeared in a serious way, and between managing the nausea and managing my sugar intake (passed my 3-hour glucose, but on the high end of normal) and trying to avoid heartburn, I feel I'm slowly sucking the joy out of life...

Re: What are the non-prego activities you miss?

I really missed skiing this winter- I was pregnant twice during the season so I missed it.
Swimming the ocean- its just too rough out here to go much futher than my waist
Going in the hot tub at my brother's house
Definately roller coasters- I have an annual trip every year to six flags
My power yoga- I have to modify everything so its not as much fun.
Drinking- not so much the getting toasted part- just more my occasional glass of wine with DH
Definately sushi and sake nights!

This is going to be a long summer without my frozen margaritas by the pool!!!

I also miss bbq'd hot dogs, working out (on modified bedrest) & sleeping on my tummy. I'm sure they'll be more once I get bigger.

You can take baths and have manis/pedis, but the bath cannot be too hot because you do not want to elevate your body temperature too much, and the foot massage with a pedi can bring on contractions. I wouldn't worry, though.
