    I ate Subway yesterday...don't see an issue with it!

    With my last pregnancy (and with this one so far) I wasn't too sick. I'd be asked daily how I was feeling and when I said fine, I'd keep hearing how "lucky" I was, that my "great" pregnancy was a blessing and I just wanted to scream! I was crampy, bloated, had my nauseous days, towards the end I was huge and swollen and I had my miserable moments but guess what? I didn't bitch and moan all day long!! I wasn't "lucky" I just dealt with it because that is what you do. Just because I didn't throw up all day or get put on bed rest doesn't mean it was all sunshine and kittens.

    Maybe not an OU, more of a rant but I feel better now. #:-S

    I don't judge a sip of wine or beer, I do judge if you drink the whole glass, even if its just one glass.

    I also don't eat lunch meat, soft serve ice cream, make sure I wash all my fruit, even bananas.....

    BTW you can have feta as long as its made with pasturized milk and quite frankly most cheeses nowadays are, just look at the label.

    I have another one.
    I completely feel for people who have struggled with IF issues, and losses, ect. It's a shame that anyone should have to go through that, and I honestly couldn't imagine the heartache it must cause.
    With that said, I'm allowed to be mad/upset/fed up with being sick as a dog all day and night. Me bitching about how horrible I feel has nothing to do with not being grateful and not appreciating and loving my LO. It's not a slap in the face to other people, and it would be nice if everything didn't get taken so personally and out of context.

    I have struggled through several loses, and I DO feel guilty when I complain about my symptoms... But I totally get it. I HATE being nauseated to any degree, morning (afternoon evening midnight) sickness is the pits!! And I'm vocal about it right there with you :) I appreciate having the symptoms because it means I'm still pregnant, but I don't appreciate the sensation of those symptoms!

    My bigger issue is when women complain about their weight or that they look like a whale or (my favorite, of a friend who was wearing a red dress) the kool-aid man! I would have given ANYTHING to have that bump, to carry that babe inside. That really cuts to the core for those who struggle, when someone can be so harsh about how their body is doing an amazing and beautiful thing...

    I'm guilty of the "calling myself a whale" I never thought of it that way.
    I've never been skinny I've always been a big girl (200+ for as long as I an remember) but I have never felt ...ugly and disgusting as I do now. My boyfriend gets upset when I say stuff like that but it's the honest truth. I know I'm growing a tiny human and my body is changing and doing beautiful things - but I can't help but feel ugly inside.
    Hopefully these feelings will change when the blump turns to a bump..

    My UO I think the whole rules on what to eat or not eat during pregnancy must really be for 3rd world countries. I do believe there is some sort of law in the US banning the sale of unpasteurized dairy. And eating cooked sushi is fine and raw sushi I ate some 2 weeks after my BFP. And I never once heard about the lunch meat crap until this board. I've had 3 healthy babies and not once was I told not to eat this stuff. I think it's funny how women are arguing over this. And I don't see the hurt in a sip of wine here and there. I don't drink because I have never cared for the taste.

    Ah, I'm so careful about everything... No caffeine at all, no deli meats, no pre cut salads, no alcohol, nowhere near smoking, no soft cheeses.
    But my partner surprised me with an icecream last night... What's wrong with icecream!? :( should I be worried?

    @lyannast , there have been listeria outbreaks from ice cream. Then again there have also been outbreaks from candy apples and spinach.
