What are 7 things you wish you would have done before you b

Great question! 1. Go on more dates and vacations with hubby 2. Better trained my immediate team at work so I could have had a less stressful pregnancy and first few months back at work post pregnancy 3. Bought our own apartment 4. Hired and trained our domestic helper. We hired her in my last trimester but wish we had done it before 5. Saved more money- babies are much more expensive than I thought 6. Build more friendships based with people of similar philosophies in life vs friends with shared history or hobbies 7. Get my PHD

A question I've asked many of my friends (only I didn't state "7"). Let me share their responses. 1. take spontaneous trips 2. go on backpacking trips 3. save more money (because a lot commented that having a child depleted their savings) 4. try an extreme sport 5. pay off housing loan 6. climb the coporate ladder 7. enjoy more time with partner

I'm not a mom yet but I hope to be one really soon because I reckon I've done some of the things I've set out to do. I'll state the top 5 here :) 1) Live abroad 2) Get my Masters 3) Visit the polar circle 4) Learn a new language besides my native ones 5) Be with the man of my dreams :)

1. Go on dates with hubby more often 2. Get married first 3. Have a proper full time job that does not make you quit immediately after becoming pregnant 4. Save more money 5. Plan! 6. Go on holidays and spend quality time with family 7. Go hiking!
