I have already told my husband I want a 6 inch subway with turkey, ham, cheese, mayo and mustard in the delivery room. He thinks it is very sad that I am missing that the most of all the things we can't (or shouldn't) have. A glass of white wine would be nice too, but I want the sub first.
We are so thankful that our second daughter, Lillian Elizabeth "Lily", was born healthy and happy on February 11, 2013. We love her to pieces.
We lost our first daughter, Hannah Grace on May 4, 2011. She was buried on May 14 during a beautiful service at my home church. We are grateful that if she could not be here with us, that she is healed and whole with the Lord. We look forward to the day when we will get to meet her. We love her so much.
Italian antipasto platter. A variety of this was my lunch staple for the last two semesters. I still have no idea what I will bring to school for lunch.
The biggest can of sugar free Redbull you could find or super mondo venti Non-fat White Chocolate Raspberry Mocha!!!!
Peanut (the new LO) is incredibly picky and so far I've have gone from pre-pregnancy of 1 cup coffee at home, 1 venti espresso at my fav coffee stand plus either a couple cans diet coke or SF redbull per day to absolutely positively NO caffeine at all ever without getting a horrible horrible migraine- which since I can't take my migraine meds have to suffer through..... To make matter worse, I live in Seattle where there are Starbucks on every corner just taunting me :-(

Feta cheese and alcohol. We have a bottle and a half of patron in the house that is off limits. I'm not a huge drinker but now that I can't I want to at least once a week

You can eat feta cheese. The only issues with cheeses are those which are not pasteurized. Head to the grocery store!!

What's wrong with an antipasto platter?
For me - wine. This past week when DD was sick and really clingy and whiny all day, it would have been nice to relax with a glass of red wine after she went to bed. Most of the other stuff on the list I either eat occasionally or don't miss.
BFP1: DD1 born April 2011 at 34w1d via unplanned c/s due to HELLP, DVT 1 week PP
BFP2: 3/18/12, blighted ovum, natural m/c @ 7w4d BFP3: DD2 born Feb 2013 at 38w4d via unplanned RCS due to uterine dehiscence
only reason I can't/haven't eaten it is due to my braces. Not very braces friendly.. But my braces come off in bout 8 weeks so i can then eat popcorn again!!
I'd like to go to Texas Roadhouse and have a med-rare steak and a margarita.
I also second the subway sub in the delivery room. I want roast beef. So not kidding about that. And yes, my wine. Between feeling like crap all day every day and chasing around DD, I'd really like a glass of wine after she goes to bed.
But three things remain: faith, hope and love; the greatest of these is love.
Mojitos and margaritas are my summer staple. I went as far as buying margarita mix w/o the tequilla but it's really not the same! And red meat... I cannot stand well done meat so I've been avoiding steak like the plague.
But fall time will be the worse because DH and I make a drink in the crock pot of apple cider, our favorite wine and spice bags. It's perfect for a chilly evening and its my drink of choice while outside handing out Halloween candy. It makes me sad just thinking about it...

eggs over easy with melted American cheese on top and some nice fresh bread to sop it all up. mmmm. For some reason, I haven't been able to eat eggs at all for the past month or so. This is very unlike me and I'm thinking that I ate too many veggie omelets in the beginning.
sushi... I am not crazy for sushi but there is one sushi place I love to go to in DC with my DH. I kind of wish we could go there before baby comes, but I'm not sure I'd have the willpower to stick to the cooked.
beer. Some days my mouth waters for an ice cold Yuengling.
I don't miss coffee much, which is surprising since I was addicted before.
I have been eating toasted subs at Subway. I figure it is relatively healthy, fast, and steaming hot (killing any potential bacteria).
Half of the things listed you ladies can eat... Ie. Blu cheese, feta, brie.. it just needs to be pasteurized. Most grocery stores only carry pasteurized cheeses. Cesear dressing is fine as long as it itsnt made with raw eggs. Hot dogs are fine as long ad you cook them.

I really miss raw oysters a lot. I just got into them last year and haven't had my fill quite yet. I was missing Brie but went to the grocery store and discovered that it is Pastuerized, at least the brands that store was carrying!! I was so happy I almost cried.

The day the Bump died - Jasper is wise
Tito's vodka and an Oberweis lemonade.
As a vegetarian, there isn't much in my diet that ends up on the not approved list. But my Tito's...oh, my Tito's...How I miss thee!

A Jimmy Johns Italian Night Club Sub & a HUGE glass of cabernet sauvignon red wine.
Sounds soo good right now.
My exact same response!
I can't drink yet so I don't miss that. And really I don't eat many foods that I can't anymore. At least not enough to really miss them.
The only thing that is hard is cherry pepsi! I could drink a gallon of it!

I like cookies.
A ham sandwich, wheel of double cream brie, some sushi and a very dirty martini.
Yum.
Sushi
Wine
Dirty Martini
Club sandwich
Popcorn, popcorn, popcorn!!! Lol
only reason I can't/haven't eaten it is due to my braces. Not very braces friendly.. But my braces come off in bout 8 weeks so i can then eat popcorn again!!
The only thing I avoid is booze. I would love a couple glasses of wine or a nice cold cocktail or beer on a hot day.
Oh yesterday I would have killed to have a couple advil migraine pills. Tylenol does nothing for me.
I've had sushi a couple times this pregnancy and I'm craving it again. I may have to go next week. mmmm sushi!

Medium rare steak
Sushi (I still eat the cooked/veggie rolls, but they aren't what I typically order)
All the fall beers that are now coming out. I love a good pumpkin ale. I have the feeling I will especially miss beer once football season starts!
spicy tuna sushi roll
oysters
med-rare steak
brie cheese on french bread w/ a glass(or 3) of red wine on the side
I don't really like most of the foods that are off limits- seafood, sushi, soft cheeses. Plus, I eat ham as long as it's heated up.
I would, however, drink
a margarita
hot apple pie
and 2 bottles of moscato d'asti.
ETA: Also, a white chocolate chai. I know I'm allowed a little caffeine, but I pretty much gave it up.
Any and all sushi.
A very cold Sam Adams Oktoberfest.
A salad with tons of bleu cheese crumbles.
And more sushi.
