The shaving post got me thinking LOL. what can you still do and what do you miss doing?

I can still get dressed by myself (all but shoes and socks if they need to tie)
I can still walk (although its a waddle really)
I can still get in the van by myself
I can still pick up my Xander
I can still go shopping (although most of the time I drive a riding thing LOL)

I wish I could get out of the bath tub all by myself
I wish I could put my shoes and socks on and tie my own shoes
I wish I could sleep on my belly
I wish I could sleep more than an hour at a time
I wish I could relax for 1min without pain
I wish I could see my Punani and shave her

or at least give her a trim

I miss being able to go 1hr between potty breaks
I miss being able to have a drink now and again (alcohol)
I miss being able to bend over to reach things I want down low
I miss being somewhat emotionaly stable

I am going to miss having NO period LOL
I am going to miss the baby moving inside me
I am going to miss having a reason to be "round"
I am going to miss having an excuse to have a midnight craving
I am going to miss having an excuse when I over-react

Please add to the list tell me what you want, miss, wish etc........

Great list. I can agree with most to all of them.

Heres a new one...
I wish I could shut doors without my belly getting in the way. The cabinet door always gets me and its soooo annoying.

ETA:
Im not going miss this nausea.

I can agree with most of those. But to add a few...

I can still work, which is saying a lot since I am a pediatric therapist, and some of those kids are fast

I wish I could get off the coach without help
I wish I could walk without being out of breath or in pain
I wish I could brush my teeth without feeling nauseaus
I wish I could get out of bed without great effort

I miss taking hot baths and soaking for an hour.
I miss eating whatever I want without nauseau or indegestion
I miss going to the bathroom with out struggling to reach when I wipe
I miss laying on my back
I miss doing what got me into this mess in the first place

I miss my clothing

I am going to miss grabbing my purse and I am ready (soon it will be pack a diaper bag, baby ready, etc)
I am going to miss the baby always being with me

I like the one about shutting the doors or cabinets.
I wish i could close the dryer without it hitting my stomach every time.

I will also miss the movement in my tummy. Its kind of sad since this will be my last one.

I will miss everyone doing stuff for me especially hubby.
I will miss not doing kitty litter. I know he will make me do it again.
