No Shame Required - Confession Time

somewheresublime86 · September 2014

Ladies, what are some of the most shamelessly pregnant things you've done so far?

I caved in to my Taco Bell craving yesterday on my way home from work. I ended up parked in the parking lot scarfing down two delicious Doritos locos tacos. Extra classy points awarded for managing to drop a tomato down my shirt.

Last night I gave in and had a huge plate of nachos, I mean a pregnant lady deserves nachos sometimes! Immediately after eating them I scarfed down an ice cream sandwich, because, why not?!? I put myself to bed before I ate through our whole kitchen!

@somewheresublime86‌ I now really, really want Taco Bell! There is not one very close unfortunately! I will say TB is the messiest thing to eat while driving I always end up with taco debris everywhere!

last night at work (the big red bullseye) i made the discovery that we sell arby's curly fries in the frozen section. that combined with some cheese dip was dinner last night. it was divine.

I bought a Halloween sized bag of twix yesterday. I also use pregnancy to get out of chores. Lol unfortunately that means a lot of this house has gone to utter crap.

joanakunzler · September 2014

Told DH that all cleaning products besides water are harmful for the baby. He's so lazy about internet, he ends up cleaning the whole house instead of doing his research.

Turns out he cleans the house way better than me. Yay

jk3610 · September 2014

@Laynabella, yes but you have to pay extra for the baja sauce :-( (at least at the ones here in northwest indiana...)

On Sunday, I ate a giant bowl of Mini Wheats (gotta have fiber, you know), and then we went to McDonalds for breakfast before church. I got the most giant breakfast they have...3 pancakes, bacon, eggs, biscuit, and hash brown...and ate almost all of it. I did share a little with my son though. It was delicious.

Well now I have to go get taco bell for lunch!!!!! I dont think any of my food cravings are real weird...but when I crave them I need them EVERY day till I get sick of it. Repeat. I ate pimento cheese blts every day for a week and it was the best...until I ate bojangles for 3 days straight.

I keep using hospital equipment for personal gain: seeing/hearing my LO. I figure I'm not wasting supplies and countless people abuse our resources. But I still feel guilty.

BrianneRB · September 2014

I can't drive by a QT gas station without stopping and getting a hot dog or toastada (or whatever that rolled tortilla with meat thing is). I always pay cash and dispose of the evidence discreetly.
gosh, I feel better getting that off my chest.
Oh, and then I had a venti iced salted caramel mocha this morning. That was heaven in a cup!

DH's usual strategy is to get a quesadilla and ask them not to slice it. It works pretty well.

Mind = blown.

The crunch wrap supreme is also a good option for eating while driving!

BrianneRB · September 2014

And just a side note... I'm not opposed to any having caffeine while prego. It was just an easy thing for me to drop, and this morning was the first time I had any since I found out. I forgot how wonderful it was.

vickersh1 · September 2014

I had Taco Bell the other night! 2 cheesy gordita crunch and cinnamon twists. It was delicious!!

Newbostonmomma · September 2014

I have been craving pizza for about a week now. I finally caved at lunch today and went and got two greasy slices of pepperoni pizza. As I brought it back to my desk to eat I over heard a co-worker say "wow that uncharacteristic of her"....that little comment really pissed me off.

Maybe I'm pregnant, or maybe I just really wanted pizza none of your business

AmandaD30 · September 2014

I have been having severe MS and my doctor offered to sign me out of work until I was feeling better. I told him he didn't have to do that because my supervisor was very flexible with my hours and me working from home. I'm finally feeling better, managing to eat a little, and feel ok to be a the office. But today I just don't feel like it. So I told my boss I was feeling bad, came home, and now I'm on the couch in my sweats working. It's so much more comfortable, no one bothers me, and I actually get more done.

MudLover · September 2014

I may or may not have got off work early on a Friday and instead of picking dd up from day care, I picked up sushi and went home stuffed my face and took and nap. I went to day care at my usual time, 6:00 to pick her up.

Prpljade · September 2014

I went to bed at 6:30 last night.

Unfortunately I don't get to call out of work or be late or any of that. They always notice and I always get flack for it. Sucks.

jk3610 · September 2014

^^ i'm in the same boat @Prpljade. I've just been trying to get through each day the best I can. Luckily my nausea has basically subsided, but I swear every single day, my boss is like, "Are you okay? You look tired."

ally3242 · September 2014

I don't change any of DS's poop diapers when DH is home because "they make me sick".

LMurphy207 · September 2014

I NEEDED a pumpkin donut this morning, like needed it to live so I stopped and got one on my way to work. I grabbed a second one for another woman in my office who is also expecting. When I got here and realized she wasn't in today I was seriously the happiest person ever and ate hers to. It was amazing. I don't even care that it made me a little sick.

aeith11 · September 2014

I ate an entire Stromboli while DD watched and was like "mommy share"...hey I made her a PB&J...this was mommy's!!!

marigold32 · September 2014

I 100% don't care what the sex of this baby is, and I'm very glad that it's not my decision. But when my husband and son start their daily game of pretending to throw up on each other, I allow myself a brief daydream of shopping and pedicures with my imaginary daughter. Totally stereotypical, I know, and I'm not even a super girly girl myself. But it gets me through the exaggerated gagging and hurling. 8-|

trlricha · September 2014

I was so hungry waiting for my husband to come home last night, that I ate a peanut butter and jelly with some Fritos as a snack to hold me over until dinner. I then ate a complete dinner and never told him about my "snack". I had ice cream a couple of hours later.

I was got so puss ed when I arrived at McDonald's 10 minutes too late for bfast. So, I had a Thai chili chicken wrap at 1040am.

Several months back I read that McD was considering serving breakfast all day. Haven't heard anything since then, but maybe it's not too far in the future?

lantzysa · September 2014

I've eaten more Taco Bell during this pregnancy than I did in my entire college career. Thank God you ladies are here or I would feel ashamed of myself.

redneckmomma25 · September 2014

I'm eating the m&m's I bought to bribe DD to pee on the potty....you don't know my lyfe!!!1!!!1

Murran131 · September 2014

Ladies, I love you all and I love this post!!! Yesterday I caved while grocery shopping and bought some nacho cheese stuff to dip chips in. I had a little bit on front of husband and he was impressed with my self control. What he doesn't know is that when he left for the gym later that day, I ate a second and even larger helping.

He thinks his mom stole some (we live with them temporarily), and I didn't not enlighten him!

scarneae · September 2014

Oh I pretty much all of this.
I'm an hour late to work everyday and don't even have ms ( mine comes mid day and evenings). Then I literally do nothing all damn day. I can't remember the last time I finished something at work. Eat Taco Bell and every other unhealthy item I see. Oh and my contribution to house work is one load of laundry every other week.

knlouis · September 2014

I broke down and called IHOP and had a Rudy Tooty Fresh and Fruity!! YUMMMY!!!

crazychickenlady · September 2014

I got chips and salsa to have with my lunch today - but now with all this nacho/cheese dip talk, I wish I had gotten nacho cheese Doritos and cheese dip.

Most of these are things I do on a regular basis. Maybe I need to go sit and rethink some things.

I was thinking the same thing. People normally don't eat delicious food when ever they want it?

purple_2012 · September 2014

You ladies have made me hungry and again and I just ate. AND I'm sure I'll eat a second dinner later. I'm eating for 2 right??

Ah, my husband has access to dopplers, etc, and I've not so jokingly asked him to help a sister out. But alas, I will wait another two weeks for my appt...argh!

Yesterday I had a head sized slice of apple pie for breakfast. And a bagel.

And now I want this for dinner!

kitc101 · September 2014

I hate half of a pineapple. The acid burn on my tongue later reminded me of my terrible mistake. It was worth it, though.

Also, sriracha on basically...everything.

ericalynn1329 · September 2014

I have to tell you ladies I want to cry while I read this. I want to eat all this delicious food! But I can barley hold water down these days.... hopefully I'll join your indulgences in trimester 2!

shopgirl133 · September 2014

Pizza rolls and a snickers bar for lunch. I had milk with the Snickers so...

I was just telling DH how glad I was that I will be very much clear of the 1st tri by the time Thanksgiving gets here. Because I love me some Thanksgiving food and I would be very sad if I felt the way I currently do about food on Thanksgiving.
