Nineteen Weeks, Six Days. Day 140 in the quest to meet our little miracle George
Being pregnant is the best thing that has ever happened to me, i am so excited about the prospect of meeting george i can hardly wait, but sometimes, just sometimes, there are things that i miss, but on that note there are things i dont miss as well… So today i am posting the top ten things i have missed, and not missed most since being pregnant….
- I really dont miss watching everything i eat
- I really miss all things processed… Peperoni & pineapple pizza, what i used to call ‘dirty sausage’ (a VERY fatty knackwurst type sausage) corned beef.. *sigh* finally i am allowed to eat, but alas none of the foods i would so desire!
- I dont miss sucking in my belly because i think i look fat, now i know i look fat
- I miss having a rear end that fits into my favorite jeans – dont worry they are tucked in the cupboard just waiting to be made the ‘goal’
- I dont miss jabbing myself in the belly each nite
- I miss being able to bend over with out going ‘uuurgh’ or ‘ooofff’
- I dont miss pretending to be happy when i am not
- I miss coffee, oh how i miss caffeine… i miss latte’s in the morning, i miss lattes in the mid morning, i miss latte’s in the afternoon, i miss latte’s on the weekend…
- I really dont miss the yearning, and heart ache, the envy, nor the pain of infertility, i dont miss the tears nor the gut wrenching sobbing that comes with them… And,
- Finally i miss my mother, i have never really missed her so much than these last few months. I know that things cant be changed but it hurts to know that she isnt here for this…
And to tell you the truth, while i was thinking of things i miss and dont miss i realised that there are a lot of things still the same… The waiting game is still in play, its not as hard, but it is certainly still being played.. The anxiety is still there…. The over emotions are still there, and the heart ache is still real…
But it is all for the better, things are certainly much better now then they have ever been…
Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It means that you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections.
