This is going to sound really weird, but the hospital I am delivering at has the BEST food ever! And for a fat kid like me, that is reason enough to want to go there. The omelets are incredible so I am getting one with bacon AND ham, dammit! The one thing I am craving that they don't have is...GUINESS! I am going to need a pint...for my breast milk supply, right?
STM here - so I've been consuming small amounts of what most of you would consider "banned" food from day one. However, I would really, really like a glass of champagne even though it will probably give me an instant headache. I think that would be a nice way to celebrate LO's arrival. Especially since this is my last pregnancy.
There is this really great sushi/thai place not far from my hospital. Even though (gasp) I've been eating sushi throughout my pregnancy, I really tried to cut back on the raw varieties, especially during the 1st and 2nd trimesters. DH has been instructed that, depending on what time I deliver, he is to go pick up spicy tuna rolls from there as soon as I am out of delivery and settled in a room. He is also to pack a flask of Sailor Jerry's rum in our hospital bag for me to mix with Coke (or not!) after LO is here.
oh... this has been planned and is definitely going to be my 1st meal in the hosp after delivery...a roast beef with cole slaw and russian dressing on crusty italian bread with a side of red potato salad from the italian deli down the street!!!
Those of you who are having beer or champagne after baby's arrival, are you bringing it with you to the hospital? They will let you do that? That is so exciting !

We were going to bring ours to the birthing center, but we're there a shorter amount of time than we would be at a hospital anyway so we decided we'll leave ours at home, unless someone visiting us decided to bring some. They did mention during our tour that once someone's entire family came, practically set up a catered buffet meal (I guess for the midwifes, nurses, etc.) and also had champagne so it wouldn't be a problem for us.

I don't know if it's allowed but it's definitely happening. Sorta like how I was told only clear fluids while I'm labouring and I fully intend to eat proper snacks. Just try and take the granola bar from my hand and see what happens!!!

I told my Mom to bring it. How would the staff know if it was for consumption or a gift?

I figured if I've snuck beer into movie theaters, it can be done at a hospital. I've also brought in BWW boneless wings into a movie theater once in college. Best movie ever.

You should come to NYC. I've seen people eating ribs (RIBS!) during an IMAX movie.
I want wing stop but it's in another town from our hospital. I will probably either pick chicken express with a large glass of sweet tea or Rosa tamale plate with a large sweet tea!!
Last time I had Jimmy John's, a huge red Gatorade, Coke and a Sprinkles cupcake. I was happy about it. Maybe a repeat this time?
This is pretty close to my go to if I don't end up getting sushi. I told DH my choices and he just shook his head... I told him that after physically carrying our baby for 40 weeks and birthing said child he can deal with my food requests for one more day.

The IMAX theater by my house has a bar! It's pretty awesome.
Pepperoni pizza (with ranch dressing) and french fries (also with ranch dressing). I have GD so I've been avoiding carb heavy foods. Once baby is born, bring me all the carbs!

When I saw 50 shades in the theater (I'm cringing to admit that), there was a girl sitting next to us with a full bottle of wine and glass, as in a proper glass not a plastic cup. She straight up didn't care who saw her topping up. I was totally jealous.
When it came down to it, I really didn't care what I ate as long as it was HEARTY. I ended up with a whataburger patty melt, fries, and Sprite. It was everything I could have wanted!
Re: Food after delivery
DH has promised to cook me a nice rare steak with homemade peppercorn sauce for my first PP dinner and I can't wait.
Not everyone can breastfeed - Mammary Hypoplasia/Insufficient Glandular Tissue Awareness
I think I'd probably be too worn/stressed/grossed out though.
1st dinner after delivery: turkey hoagie, iced tea, and dairy queen
2nd dinner after delivery: hummus and veggies from a local restaurant
