Which of the following would be, is or was the hardest thing to sacrifice during pregnancy. If I don't list your vice below, please feel free to spell out whatever else it is that you will miss/are missing/have missed for 40 weeks. Kindly leave your choice in a comment.
ALCOHOL - This has to be top on the sacrifice list for most, or am I just a wino?

LARGE AMOUNTS OF CAFFEINE - You are correct if you believe that small amounts of caffeine on a daily basis are no big deal (at least this is what I read after a stitch of research). But, if you're a pot of coffee a day type lady, there will be necessary cut backs. A cup of Joe a morning is fine, a half dozen espressos is probably not.

SUSHI - I've recently heard that as long as you're eating reliable sushi, you're allowed to keep the soy sauce flowing. Reliable sushi being sushi from a restaurant/vendor that you know and trust to be 100% bacteria/parasite free. But, it's very hard to know when you're eating reliable sushi, so for most this will be a sacrifice.

RECREATIONAL DRUGS - I just put it on the list to see if anyone was interested in admitting their habits in the publicly accessible yet judgment free forum provided on NSB.

CONTACT SPORTS AND EXTREME SPORTS - I'm not an ob/gyn as you may have known or guessed. But, from what I have learned through the journey of blogging on NSB, activities like horseback riding, bungee jumping and lacrosse become less easy to do when you're pregnant. And, there are some studies showing that they present a risk to the little one.
