Do you eat out more now that you're pregnant?

I feel like I eat out like..2 or 3 times more than I used to...What about you?

Re: Do you eat out more now that you're pregnant?

  • I think we eat out less.  We used to go out 4-5 nights per week and probably 3 nights we'd eat out. I miss that!

  • Definitely. I dunno what it is, but I just don't have the energy or patience to cook for myself.
  • No.  I have no appetite anymore, which frustrates DH because he is more than ready to eat out every night of the week!

  • I eat smaller quantities now, just because I get full quicker, but then an hour or two later, I'm hungry again.  My pregnancy has made me more or a grazer, so going OUT just doesn't work for me.  Ordering IN on the other hand, works great, so that happens a lot more now.

  • For dinner we're eating out more -- out once and take out once a week, I'd say. I've gotten bad about lunch though. I used to eat out once a week, if that. Now, I never want what I pack. So, I've been making it "budget friendly" by going to Au Bon Pain for soup -- its only $3.75, so somehow I make that justifiable. ?
  • absolutley!!  we eat out maybe 2 times a week now and we maybe did before 2 times a month! 
  • We ate out alot before I got pregnant.  Probably 4-5 nights a week. Now I think we order delivery A LOT more than we used to! I don't do the cooking, but we have both been so busy lately and I'm so indecisive about what I want that it makes it easier for us both order delivery!
  • I think on average we eat out about the same, but I'd say there are more occasions when I randomly decide I want to go out to eat than before. Usually we only go out if we're already out anyway, but now I get cravings and we'll go out just to eat.?

  • I think I eat more overall, but smaller meals.  And not as many sweets.

    OMG the Au Bon Pain in The Westchester Mall charges $5.25 for soup. Bastids. LOL

  • Yes, definately. Especially for lunch, I can't seem to pack a lunch to save my life! Sucks, because I eat crap now.
  • Yep, or go to the grocery store just for the stuff to make one meal at a time - my appetite changes on a daily basis these days :)
  • We eat out less. DH LOVES to cook, so my being pg hasn't affected anything, except he can't cook pungent foods when I am home.

    When we go out, its more of a whim than it used to be. It is usually because I et a craving...

  • I eat less now that I'm pregnant.  I think the baby is taking up all of the room in my belly. 
  • Yes, mainly because I am often too tired after work to cook. We still try to eat healthy though, hard to do sometimes.
  • OMG yes. It comes and goes though. One day I will eat very little, the next I will be a bottomless pit. This has been going on throughout my pregnancy.
