Things I Missed When Up the Duff

If you enjoy it, you probably can't do it...sigh.

My pregnancy was classed as very high-risk. Not because of my age,although I was practically dead by Middle Eastern child-bearing standards, but due to a few health issues. 

Anyway, as a result, I missed some of the usual things that up the duff ladies miss, plus some that they don't: 

• Booze
• A night without getting up to wee every 30 seconds
• Running
• Walking or standing for longer than 20 mins (doctor's orders: I COULD physically walk for longer,but paid the price afterwards)
• Exercise of any sort (even pregnancy yoga was banned)
• Swimming (see above)
• Plane travel
• Lying on my front when sunbathing
• Lying on my front when attempting to sleep
• My Whistles skinny jeans (although was still in them at 20 weeks, mofos!)
• The spa (for the first 12 weeks)
• My sanity (to be fair whether this was in place before is up for debate)

It's not forever, although it feels like it. Repeat: it's not forever.
