I know that some people have held back on some foods while pregnant so I was curious if anyone is requesting any special food/meal be brought to you for after giving birth, or are you just going with good old hospital food?

Our hospital does a special dinner the second night-- Steak, potato, a big salad, and fancy dessert. Last time I picked cheesecake. Mmmm.
I know I could eat that now, but that pub is so good!

I had the hospital food during my stay. wasn't bad actually! French toast breakfasts (that's one of my faves!). my dad grilled out for our welcome home meal! Best burger
I have no specific requests, and we don't really have anything that I love around here.

I do have a small bottle of wine chilling in the fridge and will send DH out for whatever I'm craving then.
Ive eaten deli meat, drank coffee, all within moderation, so no one specific food.

After readimg everyone else's I want a milkshake now... like for breakfast...today
Haven't given much thought to what I'll want. Supposedly our hospital's food has won awards, so I imagine we'll eat that while we are there. A caramel macchiato with soy milk though is on my list for when we are not in the hospital!

I agree with most I ate pretty much whatever this pregnancy so it isn't about having something I couldn't but more about having something I want because I know I will be ravenous.

DS was born in the middle of the night, when nothing was open (including the hospital cafeteria), and I was starving after my 35 hour labor! I ended up inhaling the pre-made sandwich from the nurse's lounge, and a bunch of random vending machine garbage that tasted amazing. The next day, my MIL brought me a McFlurry which was heaven.
Once out of the hospital, I'm looking forward to a med-rare burger with a gooey, runny, fried egg on top and a summery beer, hopefully to be eaten out on a patio!

With DS after delivery I ordered a salad from the hospital and ate that but then when they tried to get me up I kept almost passing out. The nurse asked if I eaten anything and I told her I had a salad and she started laughing and told me to order again and this time get lots of carbs, so I had chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese and vanilla ice cream. Seriously best meal ever and I felt so much better! What was I thinking ordering a salad??
