When SO and I had a day together we had lunch with desert and ice cream at the restaurant and then went and got a waffle cone from sonic and white macadamia cookies :P my weakness cookies and ice cream! Felt bad for him though cause his cookies werent to his liking.
Crying any time anyone on any TV show or movie has a baby. I mean it...I've been binge watching Reba and I cried on both episodes when BJ and then Cheyenne had their babies.
Making a special trip to the grocery store for sour patch kids, sour chewy Spree, water... and that's it. I'm sure there were other things we needed, but they weren't a priority :-)
Waking up when your husband leaves for work, going back to bed. Waking up to let the contractor in, going back to bed. Waking up to let the dogs go pee, going back to bed. Waking up to eat lunch, going back to bed.
Wodering if there's actually a pickle flavored ice cream out there..mmmmm!
You could probably make it. Ice cream is super easy. Pregnancy is definitely why there are now poptarts in the cupboard and queso in the fridge in my house.
@jfritschie87 take some vanilla ice cream, drizzle a bit of pickle juice over it and dip the spears in. I'm more of a french fries in the ice cream girl these days but I think that would work.
LOVE this thread! For me, my "that's pregnancy" moment is this: since week 6 I have been SO grossed out by meat, but I *want* to eat it because I feel like that protein is important for the baby. So every time I get a salad, I add chicken... then can't eat a bite of it because I literally gag. And then I feel terrible/emotional for the poor chicken that died for no reason. This happens EVERY. TIME. I keep waiting for my food aversions to go away (I'm 13 weeks, 5 days right now) but not yet!
@ashhsa I know I totally triggered myself! Haha @maureenmce I've had the same problem. What's worked well is meat that is chopped up really small. So ground beef, shredded or finely chopped chicken, anything I dont have to spend enough time chewing for my brain to hit the reject button.
Coming home from the grocery store with a series of random weird items you have never purchased before. Sour jolly rancher gummy candy? Grapefruit juice? Cheese-Um Pringles? A jar of pickles? All things I desperately needed and have never even crossed my mind before. My husband looked at the grocery bags and was clearly wondering what had happened.
Waking up to pee five times in one night.
I can understand once or twice. But five times is frustrating!
And being oddly jealous of my husband giving our dog attention.....
Crying because I made a delicious veggie lasagna last night and was really looking forward to it for lunch, like REALLY looking forward to it, and then come to find out DH took it for lunch
@daniellelynette - I woke up five times last night too! The first two cause I had acid reflux really bad, the third because I was nauseous, the fourth and fifth because I was so hungry it *hurt*. (Of course, all 5 times I had to pee.) SIGH.
At 9:30 last night i decided i wanted to bake apple cake and spent far too much time doing so but was so excited to have some with cold milk this morning. At 6am, when DH got up to go to work, he wakes me up to tell me there was ANTS on my cake (where did they come from?). I woke up in tears and immidiately started making another cake. DH said he'd never seen me so determined.
@maureenmce Yes! I wake up from hunger all the time! It's hard to get a decent nights sleep when I'm waking up to pee and waking up to eat and all this nonsense. I've had some pretty bad acid issues but knock on wood haven't woken up from it yet. I do wake up from the cramps if I stretch out too much though. And DH wonders why I sleep in so late all the time lol
Watching Americas got talent and crying at every single performance bc they worked so hard but didn't make it...
Craving coke for the past 4 months that I've deprived myself of having it, and then finally drinking a glass and being unpleasantly unimpressed...ugh so not worth it...
And last but not least, finally over MS and able to eat anything and everything I want, but getting full after two bites!! Wtf!?
Having to throw up in work and not even being that bothered by it, because you've done it so many times now you're so use to it. So you just sit on the floor chilling, vomiting, choking a wee bit, then get up sort yourself out and continue with your day. THAT is pregnancy.
Sitting on the beach with friends that you haven't seen in months and one of them busts out some homemade watermelon, lemonade, and vodka drink and everyone is raving about it and you're sitting there, sipping your water bottle while your one-year old terrorizes the campsite.
Re: That's pregnancy....
I'm in bed right now obviously.
Pregnancy is definitely why there are now poptarts in the cupboard and queso in the fridge in my house.
