Lack of responsibility. I miss being able to just pick up and go and not worry about anything. Now I have to take into account homework, bedtimes, if its a school night, be back by the time she gets home from school, etc.

I didnt really have a pre baby life, i was 20 and in college when i got pregnant with my first. I actually spent my 21st birthday in the hospital in labor. I think i would have enjoyed going out with friends for drinks and such.

I also had my first at 20... and I am pretty much a free spirit, my kids don't hold me back from doing anything I want to do (marriage does that)... the only thing I can think of is going to the bathroom without someone talking to me through the door.

We had our first so young maby I dont know what I am missing?? Maby that is a good thing, lol. Idk I guess not having to wake up in the middle of the night??? I used to sleep like the dead but now I wake up all the time and am such a light sleeper even if the kids dont wake up just because I can never sleep.

Sleep, being able to do things a lot more spur of the moment, more trips.

Sleep. I don't think I've slept through the night in 11 years!
And I have the bags under my eyes to prove it!

Definitely sleep!!! And being able to leave the house without getting 3 people dressed, making sure faces are washed, teeth are brushed because all that is a hassle, it takes us forever to leave. I used to be able to just go whenever I wanted to..
