My biggest symptoms right now are food cravings and aversions. The aversions are the worst (obviously!!), one day I will love something and the next I can't even look at it!
Hi, I've been suffering bump withdrawls lately, so thought I'd respond to the QOTD. I've been eating like nobody's business!!! And eating things I would normally never touch - like ice cream, pizza, mac n' cheese...I'm trying hard to keep it in control, but all my normal healthy snacks just don't even sound good to me anymore. I want nothing but junk!
Hmm... sleeping all the time. Crying at commercials. Nothing sounds good until the second I get hungry and then I have one thing, and only one thing that I want to eat. Haha
I sleep a lot, but i haven't cried once! i feel like rubbing onions in my eyes to shed some tears.. -no complains though.
the biggest thing is i crave meat -i'm a vegetarian, so it's been hard smelling it b/c i'm terribly grossed out but want a bite of it. Soy just aint doing it for me.
QOTD: What are you doing symptom or craving-wise that is stereotypical to pregnancy? ANYTHING fried...mainly fried chicken!!! Yummy!!!Also downing saltines like they are going out of style just to keep my m/s under control.

HI..could you please add me... my due date Oct.29.
And as for my symptoms, I would have to say a little of everything..constantly nauseous (kinda like an all day hangover) and only wanting to eat cereal for dinner..
Would you please add me to the group? My due date is 10/26. Thanks!
I love pickles, cheese and potatoes. I am/was a vegetarian as well but broke down and ordered cheeseburger the other night. I feel horrible but it sure was good.
Here's a normal day: I can't get out of bed before 9am, I eat a PB&J sammich for breakfast which gives me astronomical heartburn. I feel nauseous.
Next it's lunch time... what shall I have? Hmmmmm, I'm starving and nothing sounds good. Meat? Instant gag. Veggies? More gagging. Fruit? Why yes... that does sound delicious... and how about some Ravioli? Or Spaghetti? or Baked Ziti? Yummm! More nausea... delightful.
2pm rolls around, time for a nap... and by nap I mean I sleep for 2 1/2 hours. Almost time for dinner now! What will it be? How about a mashed potato sandwich or just plain bread and butter, and then some ice cream for desert?
All of a sudden it's 9pm! Time for bed! Wake up at 5am to pee, dry heave once or twice, and go back to bed until 9.
Notice how there is no pooing involved in that day... yeah. Fantastic.
Could you please add me to the list? Steinbaby and my due date is October 23rd
Thank you
As for pregnancy symptoms, I agree with the much earlier bed time and also getting up early in the morning to pee, like I have an internal alarm clock that goes off at 5:00 am. I also have m/s on and off some mornings I am sick and some I am not!
Well, I've been exhausted and nauseated and have craved Blair's favorite: pickles! Ice cream and red meat are also cravings, but dunno if those are typically "pregnancy cravings" to everyone.
I was exhausted, but that (she crosses her fingers) seems to have past. I've been passing gas like no ones business and just recently began to breakout.
Hi, There! I?m brand spankin new (first post, but don?t worry?I have read all the posts about asking dumb questions and what not). I have been stalking the boards for months now?thought I might as well join the October Optimus Primes party.
Blair, would you please add me? My due date is 10/4 (same as yours)!
QOTD: What are you doing symptom or craving-wise that is stereotypical to pregnancy? Well, suddenly I can no longer do repetition. I can?t stomach the idea of eating the same 100-calorie bagel and coffee that I have had every morning for breakfast for the past 2 years, and the words ?Weight Watchers Ravioli? or ?Lean Cuisine Chicken Club? makes me want to feed the fishes. So now, my husband thinks I?m being stereotypically picky about my food. OH, well! Oh, and I?m super tired. New bedtime is 8:30, and I?m OK with that.
So sleepy, usually in bed by 8:30, constantly munching crackers, belching, hungry all the time but too nauseas to eat, and being very lazy. Oh but I can keep down ice cream... yum ice cream.
Hello, my name is Monica & I just found this board today. Looking forward to getting information from everyone because this is our first baby.
