PQOTD ~ What is your favorite food or drink that you've had to give up now that you're pregnant?
Non-PQOTD ~ What reality shows do you like?

Jessicamz · February 2010

PQOTD: I love pop, so I gave it up for lent to help nix that bad habit. I also love green tea and shrimp which are no goes.

Non-PQOTD: So many! I could literally get addicted to any reality tv show. Real World, 16 and Pregnant, Teen Mom, Little Couple, Real Housewives of OC, Millionaire Matchmaker, and I loved Jersey Shore when it was on.

I was also thinking, what do you think about including special announcements or requests on our check-in? Such a upcoming Dr. appointments, ultrasounds, T&P requests?

hopingwaiting · February 2010

PQOTD- Wine. Ah, I miss you. I could totally use a glass to mellow myself out Right Now (and, yes, it is not even 8am here).

Non-PQOTD- Weren't we going to be the pumpkin patch or something like that?

shall923 · February 2010

PQOTD: Wine. It would be nice to help me relax when I start worrying.

Non-PQOTD: I think we were the Pumpkin Patch.

Jessicamz · February 2010

hopingwaiting:

Non-PQOTD- Weren't we going to be the pumpkin patch or something like that?

Oh I like that! Very cute. Sorry, I didn't know that you guys already had a name. I hadn't belonged to the check-in until I took over posting it.

Jessicamz · February 2010

shall923:

Non-PQOTD: I think we were the Pumpkin Patch.

Ok, great! I'm going to edit this post and change it. I'll also change the Non-PQOTD since we obviously already had I name I just didn't know it.

Starfly13 · February 2010

I don't see me one the list.

Starfly13, Angie, 26 y/o

EDD 10/30/10

PQOTD: I guess just the booze for now, LOL.

NPQOTD: I like Pumpin Patch. Also I like the idea of including dr appointments, ultrasounds, etc

New NPQOTD: I'm obsessed with 16 and Pregnant and Tool Academy, prolly the 2 trashiest shows out there.

JuJuBe3 · February 2010

PQOTD: I miss Diet Coke the most, even though I'm still allowed to have some. I haven't had any in weeks. I cut down a lot before I learned I was pg, but I still miss it.

Non-PQOTD: I see that Pumpkin Patch was the name from before I arrived. Otherwise, I'd suggest Pumpkin Smugglers.

Jodi2008 · February 2010

PQOTD ~ I've given up my red wine but it doesn't even sound appealing so I'm not really missing it yet.
Non-PQOTD ~ Something about pumpkins, of course! Beyond that concept, I'm not so creative.

ETA NEW Non-PQOTD ~ 16 and Pregnant, The Little Couple, The Biggest Loser, and Ruby. DH makes fun of me for all of these guilty pleasures, but I don't care!

A.Vaganova · February 2010

PQOTD: I miss the Asian Pear Mojito from PF Changs!

NPQOTD: I love all that crap! lol. VH1 Reality junk is fun... Millionare Matchmaker is entertaining, too!

ps. i'm 34 yrs. old.

You are added. I love Tool Academy, too! I watched it last season, but I missed the beginning this season so I haven't been keeping up.

Jessicamz · February 2010

A.Vaganova:

Oooh that sounds yummy!!

Temp950106187509203 · February 2010

Booze, for sure.

I'll watch pretty much anything. We don't have cable, so I haven't seen some of the worst reality shows, but I have been known to enjoy the Bachelor and such things in the past. Just about the only one that I've never really given a chance is American Idol.

I love coke! Especially fountain coke. I really miss it, too. Even since before I gave up pop for lent, I stopped drinking coke obviously because of the caffeine. It may sound crazy, but the caffeine free coke does not taste as good to me! It's more flat than regular coke.

shall923 · February 2010

I watch 16 and pregnant. I also like Hoarders. I don't know if that is a reality show or not.

Starfly13 · February 2010

Jessicamz:

Yay, thanks!! FYI you can watch the new season of Tool Academy online at VH1.com, it is the best train wreck ever.

Starfly13 · February 2010

Oh yeah we totally need a badge, if we don't already have one.

knorton · February 2010

Pregnant brain has already set in! My DD was due in September so I accidentally went to the September check in. Oops!

I miss eating sushi. And lots of sea food.

I loved Jon and Kate. I know horrible, but it an obsession.

Jessicamz · February 2010

knorton:

Me, too! That is until the last season where things got nasty.

Jessicamz · February 2010

Yes we do!!! Does anyone know how to make a badge? I have no clue.

Starfly13 · February 2010

Jessicamz:

I know how to make them.

What should it say? Maybe something like "Searching the Pumpkin patch for our Perfect Pumpkin"? Any Ideas?

wife1014 · February 2010

PQOTD~ wine!!!!

non PQOTD~ Survivor...been watching the show since the very first season! I am also a huge fan of Project Runway, Top Chef, and RHOC

Could you make a few? Maybe we could post the options and let everyone vote on which they like during our next check-in? (Friday or Monday, whichever. I don't know how long it takes to make them)

I like your wording. I also like just "Searching for our Perfect Pumpkin" or simply "The Pumpkin Patch."

Sure thing. I will do a few so they can be voted on for Friday check in. Also i say any one else feel free to make some for voting on Friday!

shall923 · February 2010

Everyone has been on the pumpkins but Halloween is in October.

What about something like "waiting on our little Ghost and Goblins" for a badge?

PQOTD ~ What is your favorite food or drink that you've had to give up now that you're pregnant? Like many others already mentioned, wine! We bought a couple of cause on a New York trip a month or so ago. I already told DH that he better save me some for later this year!

Non-PQOTD ~ What reality shows do you like? The Real World, Jersey Shore

MrsEzStar · February 2010

PQOTD ~ What is your favorite food or drink that you've had to give up now that you're pregnant?

Steaks cooked medium, turkey deli meat and Pepsi! I miss caffeine!
Non-PQOTD ~ What reality shows do you like?

The Real Housewive of (all of them -OC,NY, NJ, ATL) This is totally my guilty pleasure. I hope they keep making more!

Celwed · February 2010

I was hoping you could update my due date I had my 1st appt yesterday and I am a little later than I thought. Heartbeat was 152!

EDD 10/14/10

Thanks!!

MrsEzStar · February 2010

I was just thinking about badges!

I will try to come up with a few ideas also for Friday.

Jessicamz · February 2010

That's cute! We can try one like that. The only thing is that pumpkins make the most sense for our badge since our board name is The Pumpkin Patch, ya know? Pumpkins totally remind me of Halloween, don't you think?

Congrats!! So glad to hear your u/s went well!! I'll update it for you.

Erin RN · February 2010

Can you add me?

Erin RN 25yo EDD 10/27/10

PQOTD: There really isn't anything I miss. Maybe its too soon for me to miss anything yet.

NPQOTD: Biggest Loser and 16 and Pregnant(which I blame the bump ladies for) are really the only reality shows I watch. Oh wait, two more, Bridezilla and Say Yes to the Dress sometimes.

nemattox · February 2010

1. Working on giving up soda completely. I have cut back, and am trying to cut it out.

2. I don't like many reality shows, but I do get sucked into Top Chef and The Amazing Race. I love cooking and traveling!

darkskyy · February 2010

1 - Feta cheese and beer! (not together!)

2 - biggest loser, 16 and pregnant

sherd · February 2010

Could I be added please?

My due date is 10/31/10 and I am 23! Thank you!

sinisterkat01 · February 2010

I'm a little late to reply, but here goes. I have to say that I like the pumpkin patch idea - very cute. I think that it's supposed to be a little cliched.

PQOTD: The booze and the morning coffee. Definitely.

QOTD: I get addicted like anyone else but I have the advantage of no cable TV at home. When I am at the gym, I find myself watching all the usual trash on TLC.

Jessicamz · February 2010

darkskyy:

1 - Feta cheese and beer! (not together!)

I'm obsessed with feta cheese!! I LOVE greek salads. As long as it's made from pasteurized milk, you can still eat it!! I've checked at the grocery store and I honestly couldn't even find 1 that wasn't made with pasteurized milk. I still don't order it at restaurants since they usually don't know if it's made from pasteurized milk or not.
