2. Sleeping in. Sleeping at all. I can see the highlight of my day after I return to work next spring being the naps on the train in and out of the city. And getting back home to the babies, of course!
3. Doing anything quickly. Going to the store, grabbing a bite to eat, going for a walk. Everything will be a production with twins, unless I leave them home with Blue. But the two of us spontaneously going out for pizza? Not so much.
4. My bed. Our bathroom is downstairs, our bedroom is upstairs. I don't see myself safely making the trip down to the bathroom several times a night once I hit a certain size, so I'm thinking me and the couch are going to be great friends. I have joked that the dining room will be moving up to the bedroom and our bedroom will be moving to the dining room. I doubt that will happen, though.
5. Air. I'm already getting more winded when walking around to lunch or to my car. It's sad. I'm usually a pretty speedy walker, but it's getting less and less doable.
6. Long nails and my engagement ring. I figure both will be hazardous to babies and will have to go. Plus, supposedly my hands are going to swell and I won't be able to wear ANY rings soon. Which makes me really sad. I guess I could wear them around my neck until babies get graspy.
I know I'm missing stuff, so feel free to let me know what else to appreciate this summer!
Unless you are a clumsy fool, long nails and engagement rings are fine around babies. I have both, and no problem with either kid.
ReplyDeleteWell I am quite clumsy, though not a fool. The rings are more about my hands swelling, and my nails are rarely long to begin with though they are right now, somehow. I just figure better safe than sorry, at least while I'm learning how to do everything! Glad your kids made it through unscathed.
DeleteI've been really appreciating our date nights! I know they won't happen very often after baby comes and when they do I'm sure they'll be spent worrying about baby!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy being able to do anything with peace and quiet. (especially using the bathroom and showering). Your rings just need to come off during pregnancy and as soon as your hands return to normal, they do not effect the babies. Your nails are long because you are pregnant, your hair will also be thicker and healthier. You can thank the pre-natal vitamins and your body's desire to help everything "grow"! I love your blog by the way!!
ReplyDeleteI do NOT need thicker hair haha. So far I think it's stayed the same, thankfully. As for the rings, I've jabbed Blue a few times so I was worried about the babies, but we'll see how that goes. Thanks for reading!!
DeleteMaybe you will get lucky with the rings. With my first pregnancy I was able to wear them to almost the very end. I can only hope that's the case with this one too!
