Tonight was the first night my husband and I have gone out without our daughter (tear!). While we are out, it occured to me how awkward and yet normal I felt. I have compiled a relatively short list of things that currently make me feel pre-pregnancy normal (at least for now...).
1. Earrings. Jewelry of any kind, for that matter.
2. Jeans - they had an elastic waistband, but whatever. They weren't sweatpants or pajama pants, so let's call it a win, K?
3. Shoes with laces. That I can reach. By myself.
5. Wedding rings - OK only one of them fits, but progress is progress.
6. Showers. The 15 minutes of my day that I have all to myself.
7. Doing my hair. Wet ponytails DO NOT COUNT.
8. Exercise that does not involve lifting my one month old daughter into the air while I am pumping breastmilk.
9. Eating a meal WITH my husband, rather than playing "pass the baby".
10. Being able to see the scale without leaning forward. WIN.
