You don't give up your body for just 9 months when you're pregnant... your child is your master until you wean!
I miss alcohol and laying on my stomach the most. I'm so afraid of getting clogged ducts that I never lay on my stomach.
What do you miss most about your pre pregnancy/nursing days?

I used to always take mine off when getting home from work and left it off all day on lazy weekends. The hardest is not feeling free when sleeping, though.

You two are lucky, I haven't been able to be without a bra since middle school hahaha. But honestly I only miss my body itself. It will never be the same.

Very true, I miss my old boobs and my old, non-stretchmarked stomach.

Oh my, the list is long. I miss:
- Alchohol
- Caffeinated coffee
- Wearing my favorite underwire bras (they clog my milk ducts)
- Eating dairy, soy, eggs, chocolate, any fruits that contain citric acid (pretty much everything but bananas) - my LO is allergic and/or sensitive to all these
- I miss sleeping braless too

@mrsbells - to hold your nursing pads in that absorb your leaking milk.

I miss being unscheduled and getting to do stuff on the fly. I miss saying "hey, it's 5 PM and I'm done with work for the day but I feel like heading over to the library and picking up a crappy chick lit book and taking it to a little cafe where I will sit outside and read my book with a glass of wine for as long as I like" without following it up with "oh, but I need to pick up the baby/ I can't go that long without feeding or pumping/ I should go home and spend time with the baby."

I miss drinking coffee and wine. I miss sleeping the whole night thru. I miss my pants. I miss sex (in theory, in reality it's the last thing on my mind. I miss brushing my teeth without humming, and I miss walking in my kitchen without feeling like the trash and refridgerator contents hate me. I'm 8 weeks. I have a lot to look forward too!

I miss being spontaneous the most and not having to worry about child care.

I just miss having small boobs. I mean they werent THAT small, like a 34C, but now theyre a 38C or a 34D and I dont like them. DH does. I dont. I got lucky. I never leaked/got a clogged duct/mastitis etc. I just got big bubbies =o)

Sleeping on my back, seeing my lady parts and being able to take care of the hairy mess it has become without having my sweet DH offer to hold a mirror for me down there; SEX, I mean first tri I just didn't want it; second tri was good and then third tri, it seems like it's not on our minds... but I miss sex. I also miss working out without being out of breath so fast, I miss doing crunches, I miss my abs, my ankles.
Can you see I can't wait to have the baby and not be pregnant anymore?? I would keep the bigger boobs though!

So far I'm missing not being so darn exhausted at the end of the day, I miss being able to have SOME sort of control over my emotions, I miss sleeping through the night, I miss not having to be so careful to eat the right foods, I miss not being worried about forgetting my vitamins.

I am only 6 weeks and I am having wine & coffee withdrawals.
I miss you Mr. Pinot Noir & Mr. Starbucks.

@Witz: For some people, myself included, brushing your teeth while pregnant makes you want to vomit & the humming sometimes helps with that.

@Mrs. D: you just summed up how I'm feeling. Also, I miss feeling like we can eat out a lot (right now we are saving every penny).

I'm pregnant and so far I really just miss WINE. Also, sleeping through the night (get up to pee several times a night).
