Pregnant after 35

If you had the power

If you could magically do away with one pregnancy " no no" drinking, smoking, certain meds etc. what would it be?
For me, I thought if would be my glass of wine. But damn, a turkey sandwich would make lunchtime sooooo much easier! And please no one mention goat cheese! I love love love stupid goat cheese. I wish the day before I Tested I gorged on a turkey sandwich,goat cheese, a bottle of wine and a side of Motrin ;) LOL

Re: If you had the power

  • Turkey makes you sick? It's the one meat I can keep down:) of course it's not the good deli kind ,but even packaged has been heaven sent:)...

  • Oh no, I love turkey. But no deli meat, and I'm honestly too lazy to roast a turkey breast for sandwiches !
  • My Dr says I can have deli meat, you just need to microwave it for 5 seconds prior to eating. :)

    And for me that vice is wine. Miss it!! :)
  • When I got in my car to drive home from work last night the thermometer said 117* so I would have really liked the power to drink a super duper cold Corona with a lime while I sat in my pool last night!

  • My ob said to microwave deli meat but I don't have to packaged. He said cases of people being sick was deli or from buffet where you don't know how long it's been out. I realized I didn't answer the question ...lol I would of loved a margarita at the BBQ this weekend:D

    Meh I eat deli sandwiches daily and never worry about it. My body craves an italian hoagie from our supermarket and the salami and whatever else is in it is the only kind of meat I have been able to stomach all this time. People, seriously, EAT DELI MEAT.

    For me it's def wine. Miss my 1-2 glasses in the evening after I put my crazy monkey to sleep. Without it 'mommy time' is not the same. I am going to wait till the 3rd tri and start enjoying an occasional small glass again. Did that last time as did most of my friends. Alcohol later in pregnancy really is fine in a very limited amount.

    Bacon!! 
    Get some natural, nitrate-free bacon!  Tastes great and no chemicals.  Great for a "treat".

    As for what I would like?  I am pretty boring, really!   I have never been one for booze or caffeine.  Even the sight of an unlit package of cigarettes has me running in the other direction.  I do like cheese, but am happy with the hard, pasteurized ones....  Deli meat?   I get the natural, nitrate-free ones once in a while and just heat them....   I don't feel the need for Advil now that my period is on vacation.... 

    I do wish I could indulge a few more of my cravings now and then...  (Fatty or sugary foods)...  but I just know they don't make me feel good, and I don't want to gain a pile of weight.

  • Sushi, by far. Then wine. But I miss raw and smoked fish the most.

    I guess I'm the rebel. I eat sushi, don't care for the raw ones anyway. I eat turkey when I can stomach meat. I will drink coffee if I need it, the caffiene helps my migraines and I don't drink pop, so I can't get it anywhere else. I've never been a big alcohol drinker, so I don't miss wine or beer. Lol

    I guess ultimately what I miss is just being able to eat like a normal person and not having food smells make me want to vomit.

    Oh, reread question I'd LOVE to be able to take meds, ie cold medicine, migraine meds with no worry.

  • I went to make lunch for everyone today and pulled out a package of hotdogs. All set to have a little picnic. And The hubs walks in and says " hey, you can't eat those" it was like he told me there was no Santa Claus.

  • I love my sangria in the summer time! Fresh fruit, juice, little fizz and my hubby's homemade vino!
    I also miss my sushi!  I would love to be able to run into Subway and grab a Turkey BLT!!  UGH I miss them!!  I feel like a kid, as soon as I know I can't have something, I NEEEED it! 

    I know people indulge in some of the things others feel are a "no-no", I don't judge, I just know that for myself, if anything were to go wrong in this pregnancy, I would be consumed by guilt.

    I could definitely go for a pint of Old Mick's Red!!

  • I thought it would be my vino... Maybe it is the heat but except when my husband penned up a really nice bottle the other night (so jealous) I would trade in my vino for deli meat or bacon! I really want a BLT and avocado with extra bacon ;-)

  • Wine definitely.

  • DRINKING!

    DH and I are really into mixology and even have our own antique walk-up bar at home. (We even registered for certain bottles for our wedding, if that gives you an idea of how much we are into this.)

    I really miss my after work cocktail. I know it won't be much longer now, but I REALLY want a Manhattan on days like today!
