I definetly miss the freedom
My friend text me to say she was feeling down and was going away for a couple of days to "think" and even tho shes obviously not very happy my first thought was "wow, your so lucky to be able to just go whenever you please"

I miss SLEEP! Being able to sleep without being interrupted by grizzly gremlins, feral four year olds or icky sticky pregnancy nausea.
I miss my independence. I had just started getting a bit of it back before I got preg with the gremlins coz Maya was that much older and at preschool so I could go out for dinner with friends etc. and not be too shattered to function the next day.
My Mum (and Dad and brothers and sister who all live in Oz)

- having money to spend on going out more to restaurants
- day trips without the drama and packing - now it just takes too much organising!
- having more time for me & DH
- going out more at night all dressed up & pretty - now I prefer to be home in my PJs and put Gina to sleep, then veggie out and relax

I miss being able to go to the toilet by myself!
I miss have a disposable income, and buying whatever I want without thinking much about it, and getting my hair done regularly, getting massages etc!
I miss being able to go out spontanously!
