Also for those with indigestion, I have left over fruit popsycles from when I had nausea/morning sickness and they seem to help settle my stomach Might be worth a shot!
Also I think she's toying with me. Baby's plan: Want chocolate milk. Give mum indigestion. She will get chocolate milk. FIESTA!!!
Salty salty salty over here... mostly salty. Pretzels and Hummus. Chips: Creamy Dill, Sour Cream and Onion, ketchup, Nacho cheese Doritos, Plain with Helluva Good Dip. Heck, I will take Party Mix. Seriously could have a meal of Salty Goodness daily.
Mama to a wonderful DD - Sep 2015, Wife to my DH since 2011, 2 dogs, a cat, and hoping to add No. 2 in May/June 2018. Canadian. 5 - IUIs, 3 - IVF retrievals, 2- failed transfers (fresh, and frozen), PGS on second IVF resulted in 1 perfect emby, and DD. 3rd IVF w PGS resulted in 3! perfect embys. 1st transfer - Sep 2017 2 more on ice.
Cereal for me too. And juice! I never really liked orange juice before, plus it has so much sugar, but I crave it all the time. I’m a vegetarian (by choice) and on a sodium restricted diet (not by choice), so options are more limited
I’ve been craving a huge breakfast burrito for a few weeks now and couldn’t seem to satisfy my craving. So like anything, sometimes you just have to do it your dang self. Eggs, cheese, potatoes, salsa, and field roast maple sausage (meatless). I want to try my hand at a tofu scramble soon but I keep forgetting to grab some black salt. Anyway, this is absolutely what I’ve been wanting. #bestmeever
I’m with my MIL for the weekend bc she’s amazing, and I am still dreaming about last night’s dinner. Tomato and avocado salad with some fancy cheese, raviolo with truffle sauce, and tartufo. I housed all of it. We’re ordering in sushi tonight. I am a happy lady.
We went to this adorable Belgian place for brunch today in Toronto. It was called Le Perite Dejeuner, if you are ever here, check it out. I ordered two breakfasts. One was called The Hungry Gal and also ordered crepes. I think the waitress thought I was crazy, but I polished it off. It is safe to say my appetite is back.
My baby is less bothered by our vegetarian/vegan transition than DH and myself are. I switched him to unsweetened almond milk and he acts like he notices no difference. I give him Gardein instead of meat and he eats more of it than he did the real thing. He's never liked cheese much or yogurt at all so that was a non issue. He can destroy a plate of veggie stir fry. As soon as I can teach him how to drink out of a straw I'm going to see what he thinks of a smoothie. I am excited about how many greens I can get into his diet that way.
Meanwhile my dairy habit borders excess. DH was just saying tonight that we both should aspire to eat as heathy as our child does and he's right. I'm just over here eating too much peanut butter and cheese. Working on it.
I'm not a huge steak fan - in general I'm not a big meat eater lol not vegetarian fyi - but on Sunday we went for dinner at a nice steakhouse. Damn I've never had such a great tasting steak! Idk if it's pregnancy, or it just was really good. Baby really loved it also! Dancing all over the place lol!
@Austenista For some reason, I misread read your comment and thought you were talking about your hubby, not your baby. Then I got really confused when you said you have to teach him how to use a straw...lol Oh pregnancy brain...But that's awesome that you have such a good little eater!
ugh. I still haven't found any girlscout cookies. I'm hoping there's a table set up outside the grocery store this weekend!! i'll be stalking them. I need some samoas.

I found a Girl Scout cookie dealer... I mean distributor... at work on Tuesday. I have a box of samoas in my hiding spot waiting for the perfect occasion!
I have been craving cinnamon like a crazy woman this whole pregnancy. I’ve always liked cinnamon, but this is different. I just have to have it. I am off to google what that might mean. We are team green, so fingers crossed I get lots of crazy sex predictions.
DH stopped at the grocery store after work yesterday and a GS table was set up! i didn't think they'd be there so late in the day but i'm so glad they were!!
@laceybee522 i couldn't do any sweets for the longest time this pregnancy. but eventually i turned to cinnamon cause i just needed a treat.. and it was amazing. cinnamon bread, cinnamon crumb cakes. ugh. then i over did it and had to stop myself lol. oh and we're team blue, so let me know if google agrees with that

@LaceyBee522@catlady1215 Fellow cinnamon lovers, have you ever had the cinnamon roll bread from Trader Joe’s? It’s not like regular cinnamon raisin bread...the cinnamon swirl is ooey gooey, like an actual cinnamon roll. I am OBSESSED. It is amazing toasted with a thick layer of butter.

@moonovergoldsboro I've actually never been to Trader Joe's. Think we have one in driving distance but not sure how far. I might need to find it for the bread though!
