August 2014 Moms

I went to the grocery store hungry and...

purchased a 5lb bag of Sour Patch Kids (they were ON SALE!!). I know I'm not alone with my pregnancy-hunger grocery shops. What have you bought was was ridiculous?

    Pregnancy #3 after two prior losses in 2013

    EDD 8/18 


  • DH and I went to the grocery store on the way to a BBQ and I bought hot dogs and a GIANT party platter of cookies.  I ended up eating multiple hot dogs and 6 or 7 cookies.  I did have a couple of people at the party ask if I was allowed to eat hot dogs.  I tried to nicely roll my eyes at them.

  • Sending me to the grocery store is a joke! All I want to eat is fruit, carrots, and juice. I end up coming home with nothing to make an actual meal! But we always have grapes, raspberry's, strawberry's and banana's! Haha! My husband has taken over grocery shopping these days!

    I will be buying 5 pounds of sour patch kids right after my glucose test today!!!!!!,
  • This happens to me every week. This week I came home with jelly beans, sour watermelons, oreo cookies and 2 different types of coffee ice cream (plain and coffee health bar crunch, cause a girl's gotta have variation)

    My husband just shakes his head...

    I've bought two of these already. H has been helped me out with finishing them though, so I wasn't alone. I really wanted another bag the other day, but I resisted. I LOVE sour patch kids!

    IDK if you know this or not, but they have Sour Patch Kids gum. Soooo good!

  • Luckily for me or unlucky for me I have a very strict grocery budget that doesn't allow for grabbing random things that hit me. But the baby/sweets aisle is a bad one for me. I go to get something for DD and have to pass the chocolate. It is totally a test in my self-control.

  • I call this "shopping while pregnant".. I always buy weird things I would never buy on a normal basis.

    I got stuck in the cereal aisle one day.  I always buy Special K...either the chocolate delight or red berries. 
    I must have been wandering up and down the aisle for a full 5 minutes.  I went home with Reese Puffs.  WTH?!
    Even DH side-eyed the shit out of me when he saw them.  I'd NEVER even tried them before.  It was the most random thing.

    FYI:  They're pretty good.  I usually have them as dessert.

    Haha I bought these in 1st tri.  I NEVER buy cereal like that but it was so good!

    Right now the Simply Cheetos Puffs keep leaping into my cart.  Luckily they were on sale today so I got 2 bags.  Oops.

    I avoid the store completely. My mom (who lives with me) does the majority of the shopping :) otherwise my cart would consist of chocolate, peanut butter, pretzels and watermelon
