The "Miss Their Belly?" Thread Got Me Thinking...

[jinkel]

about what things we *are* rejoicing about, now that we're not pg anymore.

I'll start:

Can you say RAZOR? There are few joys sweeter than doing your personal landscaping, and actually *seeing* the area you're working on. What a thrill to not need a mirror anymore to get the job done!

And the biggest thing - being able to put my 4yo ds on my lap again, and get a nice close hug - sooo awesome. :

oh yeah - getting to nurse my ds#1 w/o him complaining about my belly. and being able to sleep on my tummy - WOO HOO! also, being able to eat the foods i wouldn't while preggers - i'm back on caffeine (and just in time, given the amount of sleep i'm not getting!), and i have had a number of turkey & brie sandwiches lately. not thinking twice before ordering sushi. (you get the picture, i think! )

Oooh, I am a tweezer freak and BB (before baby) I used to pluck my whole bikini line. I used to get great pleasure out of it. So I've already started the landscaping (a little at a time because I don't get many bathroom breaks) but it makes me so happy to be able to do that again!

I also love wearing my old clothing again.

love sleeping on my tummy, hugging my boys and eating leftovers and all those not supposed to eat when preggie foods

OMG!!! I used to do that, too! But it takes a reaaaally long time before any marked progress can be seen--I don't think I'll be able to do that again for awhile...
