kinda upset...:/

Don't get me wrong I am very very excited to be pregnant and we went through alot to have this baby.  Buttt I am kinda sad that I can't go all the things I used to do.  My husband and I used to go fishing every weekend and I get that I can still go but him and his friends go for the whole entire day.  The seats in the boat are extremely uncomfortable and I have to pee like every hour so I am more of a pain in the a ss then Anything.  I can't go quading anymore Cuz husband drives too crazy and I can go on his harley now but soon I won't be able too. So my husband just leaves me and does all the things by himself that we both used to enjoy together. I barely get to see him anymore.  I Dunno.. I'm just sad. . It's probably just my hormones. I just think of baby and it makes me feel a little better.  Does anyone else miss what they used to do or is it just me?  :/

Aww I'm sorry to hear that.  If my husband broke his arm. . He couldn't work (he's a heavy duty mechanic) or do anything. He would be a depressed mess.  A big baby lol.

Yeah I hope my husband stays and helps me.. I know he's very excited about baby but he also told me he is going to go ice fishing.  Andddd his one friend who just had a baby a month ago is going fishing with my husband all the time so I kinda worries me that he will be the same way.. But you never know,  maybe he will surprise me and help me out alot. And If not then I'll have to put my foot down Haha.  :))

talk to him about trying a new activity that you could do as a whole family when the baby is born. He will change his mind about spending as the paternity leave ice fishing.
find some new activities to do your self or with mommy-to-be friends. I enjoy knitting and pilates

I have already told my hubby to get in all the stuff he wants to now bc when she comes some of that will change. Now he's all like "we rnt going to have a life once she comes...woe is me..." I told him to get over it bc he won't ever have to give up as much as me and to just suck it up! He usually won't complain around me about it nemore and seems to be excited for her to come. Best of luck!

Aww yeah I used to smoke the greens but I actually don't miss it.  The smell of it fresh smells amazing but when my husband smokes it it makes me wanna puke so that's a good thing lol.  But I do miss going to amusement parks too. I lovveee going on rides.  

I also am going to miss out on hunting this year as well which makes me sad since I just bought a new gun and all. But oh well. Gotta look on the bright side..There is always next year for everything.  :))

I miss smoking. I wasn't a heavy smoker but every once and a while I smoked when I wanted to. That *****. We have a big pretty amusement park that I cant go to. I wanna ride some freaking roller coasters! Couldn't really go to the rodeo. I am scared of all of the people bumping into me, cant ride the rides and I can't walk that far without dry heaving! LMAO  All for the greater good!

As far as the hubby, he is being a saint. We are normally home bodies so he stays at home with me a lot and when we fish we usually fish off the bayou at a buddies house so the bathroom is there. Now what has happened lately is him and my dad have been going out on the boat a lot and I am jealous of that! Lol!

Yeah it really *****.  I Have talked to him about it. . I told him I barely get to see him anymore. But he Just shrugs it off. . Doesnt Take me seriously. He is working all the time then when he comes home he is riding his harley or hanging out in the garage. On his days off he is always fishing or having friends over looking at his bike or his classic car. And I mean I go out there but then he starts either one and the exhaust smells so bad it makes me wanna puke lol.  So I've just learned my lesson to stay inside.  He told me he's gonna take paternity leave when baby is born and I said that's great you can help me with baby and he's like Yeah and go ice fishing everyday!  Grrr lol. . Men these days. Oh well. . I'm gonna make him take me fishing for a couple hrs atleast a few times this summer.

Aww I know how you feel! They're life doesn't stop but ours changes completely and it is upsetting at times bc they don't seem to evem care or notice. My hubby makes plans to do this and that and I'm like hello! The whale here can hardly walk! Lol. And most of the time I tell him if I can't do it he can't either cus we prego together but then I feel bad and let the big kid run along lol. Oh well I do miss a lot of tthings and at times I'm so bored of just being home bbut i take this as my little vacation. Pamper yourself now and just go and get massages and Mani and pedis which is as much as we can do. Oh and some good retail therapy too! Lol

I'm so sorry girl.  Have u talked to hubs about how u feel? Maybe u guys could just alter things a bit... meet friends for fishing for a short time??? Whatever will make it so u can go and be comfy.  Boys can be kind of aloof sometimes,  might not realize how left out you feel. Also,  maybe try a new activity that might both enjoy and can bring baby along when the time arrives: hiking possibly?  
I haven't had the left out feeling much bc I am still able to do almost everything.   I had to cut snowboarding a bit short but the season was coming to an end after a crappy winter.  I did skip a rock climbing trip last weekend but hubs skipped too. We boat, waterski, and wake board most of the summer ... so I am still able to go and just skip the skiing, also peeing is easy bc I just jump off the boat!  
Hope it works out for u, I think talking w him would be best :) good luck!

I totally get you girly cuz I feel the same exact way. I wish that our S/Os couldn't do certain things like us. Ugh I swear us women sacrifice so much when we're pregnant. Lol They get to carry on with things they've always done while we give up! :/ I think too maybe its my hormones
