either before children or maybe being married? (though for me not much changed with the latter)

I miss staying up late playing video games and watching movies...and having a proper soak in the tub. Now I'm too knackered because the daughter gets me up at all hours.
I really miss the games. I've not played Oblivion is ages....sigh.

8 days into fatherhood and the thing I'm missing most is sleep.

How does having a kid stop you having a soak in the bath?

Applies to both the aforementioned.

Sh@gin all over the house any hour of the day...

...and the list goes on.

The freedom is the big thing, we used to go where we wanted when we wanted but its not as easy anymore.

Well there are the numerous toys...and if she is awake she must be there with...and if she's in bed, well all I really want to do is fall into bed and sleep too. I could stay up and soak in the bath but it's not the same somehow. I suddenly find I have a million other things I ought to be doing 'quick -encase she wakes up.'

That's because wedding cake is the worlds best contraceptive!

Morning lie-ins
Complete night sleeps
Nights out with the lads
Nights out with my wife (not in that order of course)
Spare cash
.
.
.
But the loss of above is more than made up by the two small ones we've got - they're hugely infuriating at times, but a complete joy

Just spending days with the wife or not feeling guilty buggering off on the bike all day.

Kids are more fun, only my own though, I absolutely cannot stand other peoples!!

Anyone want to buy a kid? Only a year old, immaculate condition, blonde, blue eyes, cute...?

Will swap for new or nearly new 2010 SIDs 100mm.

Kids are like farts. Your own are ok but you can't stand other peoples.

I quite like our little one too. It's just that today all I really wanted to do after the stressful morning was curl up on the couch and play video games or watch movies and do nothing much besides enjoy 'being.' Instead I was cook, maid, friend, horsey, bath-mate, comforter, lecturer, nurse, climbing frame, dictator, meanie, clown, in other words 'mommy' all day long.

Nothing - Life now is so much better, that I don't even want to think about 'before'.

Spontaneity, I suppose, but then again I'd rather have the kids than not, so it's not that much of a whinge really.
