Things I Won't Miss...

With Peanut's arrival only 1 short week away... the end is in sight to this whole pregnancy thing. While overall, we've had an easy time, there are a few things that I am not going to miss. In no particular order.... here they are:

• Sleeping on the sofa. It's the only place I've been sort of comfortable for the last month- maybe two- and I'm looking foward to reclaiming my side of the bed.
• Sleeping on my side...oh what a joyous moment it will be when sleeping on my tummy is once again possible.
• To continue the theme- not getting up 5 times a night to use the bathroom. I realize this will be exchanged for getting up 5 times a night to feed/change, Peanut, but that's still better.
• Feet- where are you? Are you still there??
• Standing on the scale and having to twist to the side to read the number (which will hopefully be decreasing instead of increasing).
• Having ankles that are the same size as my calves.
• Not being able to reach my feet- blessed will the day be when I can give myself a pedicure.
• Only having 2 pairs of shoes that fit- and even those I have to cram my swollen fat feet into them.
• Not being able to give people hugs without turning to the side first.
• Achy hip joints that can take my breath away if I sit/lay/stand too long in the wrong position.
• Waddling.
• Finally, hearing comments from complete strangers like "Are you having twins?", "Are you ready to pop?" and "Hey there, little mama". UGH.

But the #1 thing I'm looking forward to about NOT being pregnant- and this I know tops my list... I'll have Peanut in my arms to shower with hugs and kisses!
