    I'm not really big in to meat or salads these days.  Trying to get it in where I can, but I am loving fruit, especially strawberries.  I did eat a Primo hoagie yesterday and it was AMAZING!!  I didn't worry about heating up the lunchmeat because it is fresh with a quick turnover.  Oven roasted turkey, Oven baked ham, and Sharp Provolone!  Yummers!

    My husband has been bitching because the house is a mess but comes home and dumps all his shit on the kitchen table. I literally have to pick up after DS, DH, 3 dogs and myself. Help a mother out!!! Jeezeee!!
    What cravings and/or food aversions are you experiencing?  Anything you feel like you HAVE to have or CANNOT have?
    I’ve been craving pizza, but only like fresh out of the box, cheese runny and hot and saucy. Generally haven’t been very hungry and I’m definitely have more aversions than cravings. I don’t want anything to do with meats like chicken, pork, or steak (basically all meat) but I have no problem with processed meats like lunch meat or sausage- go figure... I’ll eat all fruits and veggies, soup, and salad- not feeling sweets or even snacks. I’m usually a huge foodie so this is so weird for me!! My husband wants Red Lobster for dinner and the biscuits are sounding so good though. Haha.

    @WorkinWeezel I never heat up my lunch meat. My doctor recommends not eating it because of the nitrates. They make some nitrate free lunch meat, that I’ve seen at target, but I read recently that if you eat something high in vitamin C with it or after it, it helps combat the formation of nitrosamines(the bad stuff that can be carcinogenic)!  You actually have more of a risk of getting listeria from bagged salad, lettuce, or ice cream. :) anddddd now I want a sub! Haha

    Made some homemade pretzel bites and cheese dip yesterday to experiment for Superbowl. They turned out great! Also, we went out to dinner on Saturday night and sat at the bar so we could watch a basketball game. One of the bartenders was complaining about how sick she was feeling and how her boss wouldn't let her go home. I would think if you're in the food/service industry serving people during flu/cold season and you're not feeling good, it would be best to STAY FAR AWAY FROM EVERYONE! She wasn't the one serving us, but I was still hand sanitizing my hands every 30 seconds.

    Digging cookies and ice cream and milk. I guess big on dairy right now. and citrus. Having a hard time with plain meat or vegetables.

    @rachelsogo for me, it was little bumps inside, always on the same side.  With this one is it on the lower left side, basically near my pelvic bone.  It kind of happens at the same time of day, too.

    Remedies for sciatic nerve pain? Posted in symptoms but legit desperate over here

    Rants/Raves

    DH and I got into a huge fight last night because I asked him to switch over the laundry and he legit took over an hour to do it.  I finally went to go do it myself and hes like “you’re so impatient, I said I’d do it”  yet he forgets EVERYTHING.  And I hate listening to the dryer when I’m trying to fall asleep LOL

    What cravings and/or food aversions are you experiencing?  Anything you feel like you HAVE to have or CANNOT have?

    Cravings- FRUIT omg I could eat any fruit all day

    Aversions- Chicken/Turkey/Pork, most meat.  I can do steak but its got to be wicked good- filet, prime rib etc

    Cravings were intense for pickles but every time I eat them, I feel sick :(

    @babygagnon2018 Have you tried s chiropractor? That’s the only thing that’s ever helped with my siatic pain. They can give you stretches that can help too. 

    @rachelsogo First movement to me feels like gas, with no productivity. And eventually gets stronger. Like others said, it’s usually in the same area. I’ve been feeling it right to the left of my belly button, and just every other day or so. But I also have an anterior placenta. With DS this early I think I felt him more often, but I don’t remember.

    @rachelsogo  I absolutely love soft pretzels and cheese! I’m thinking I might have to make some today!!

    @babygagnon2018  I had horrible sciatic pain at the end of pregnancy with DS and it has already started this time around. For me, nothing made it go away (except giving birth lol), but sleeping with a pillow between my knees helped. My OB recommended that I see a chiropractor, but I was already missing work to have my OB appointments so I couldn’t miss anymore for chiropractor appointments. A lot of people say it helps. I think I’ll try it this time around.

    I had an appointment today. It was just to listen to the heartbeats and pee in a cup. In two weeks I’ll go to the high risk specialist for the anatomy scan and to make sure both babies are getting proper blood flow.

    I rant about this a lot, but I am so frustrated with trying to buy a house! Houses are either way above or way below our budget. The cheaper ones are so crappy and need so much work.  Rave: my DS ended up having to go with me to my appointment today, and even though it was way longer than it should have been, he was so well behaved!!! You never know with a two year old!
    What cravings and/or food aversions are you experiencing?  Anything you feel like you HAVE to have or CANNOT have?
    I really crave pizza all the time, but I’m trying to eat healthier. I’m trying to cut back to once a week for pizza. Healthy foods don’t always sound appetizing, but they don’t bother me to eat them. I haven’t wanted sweets, which is the same way I was with DS. It’s so weird becasue when I’m not pregnant I could eat chocolate all day long!
