So, I had to have a talk with DH last night!

DH and his dad talk about once a week.  My FIL was asking how I was doing and DH told him good but that I was eating all the time.  Of course FIL said, well that's not good. LOL.  I got on him about it, because I'm NOT eating ALL the time.

Last night he was talking with his mom and I was there so I could hear all the conversation.  He told her that I was eating about every 3 hours.  Once again, NOT TRUE.  LOL.

I got so mad at them and then went over what I ate yesterday. 

1 granola bar, 1 hamburger, 1 chocolate pudding cup, 4 slices of pizza (we made it ourselves so those 4 slices probably = 2 slices from a pizza place.  I asked him if that sounded like too much. LOL.

Then I told him that the next time he talks to his dad he needs to tell him that I'm not eating ALL the freaking time.   

Men sometimes don't have a clue! :)

    I totally eat AT LEAST every 3 hours. Sometimes more often. I would beat anyone who felt they could comment on my eating while I'm pregnant.

    Wow, I'm eating triple of what you eat! Yeah, DH definitely deserved "a talk"...you aren't eating all the time! And, even if you were eating more, so what? You're building a human in there!

    I ate breakfast today at 7:15 (oatmeal and toast) and am now eating my lunch - three hours later.  It's mac and cheese, plus the salami slices I brought to snack on.  So don't feel bad.

    All I have left to eat for the day is a pear...

    If I don't eat every 2-3 hours, I feel nauseated.  I eat more than you do, and I'm still in my 1st trimester!  Today I had my usual b-fast (oatmeal and a glass of milk), a banana for morning snack, two chicken fajita tacos for lunch, a crepe for desert, and two tangerines for afternoon snack.  I am making turkey bratwurst and swiss chard for dinner. 

    I think we need to consume 300 extra calories in the 2nd tri, so I am actually starting to feel hungry more often.  I might not be eating enough!  

    I bet our DHs still eat more than we do, and we are making humans from scratch!  My DH is making nothing but a good old fashioned pot belly!

    So what if you are eating "all the time"! You aren't eating a lot. Besides, eating every 2-3 hours really is the recommended time frame to eat throughout the day on a regular basis to keep a more even blood sugar level. I was told you should never go for more than 4 hours without eating something.

    So poo on them!
