3 Things I Can't Do While Pregnant

I love being pregnant. I love feeling the babies move. I love being a part of God's miracle. I love helping create life or lives out of the wonderful love I share with my husband.

With that said, there are certainly a few things I miss about not being pregnant.

Here are the 3 things I want to do as soon as I can after giving birth:

1. Wear pants that don't have an elastic waist. Seriously, I miss normal pants with buttons and a zipper. Somehow I feel like either a 2-year-old or a 82-year-old for wearing pants with stretchy material for a waist.

2. Go running. I miss those short 3 or 4 mile runs outside when I could turn up my iPod and forget about the day's stresses. I even miss those long 15 mile runs when I felt like I couldn't take another step without collapsing. Somehow I think this one will have to happen BEFORE I can achieve the first item on my list...

3. Drink a large glass of good Pinot Grigio. Drinking isn't the top of my list and it probably won't happen while I'm breastfeeding either, but a girl can dream. There's nothing more relaxing than sipping a good glass of wine with dinner or enjoying a glass (or two) of spirits when out with my girlfriends. Plus, I know I'll need that relaxation with 3 kids under the age of 3...
