My cravings have been fairly minimal this pregnancy. I still think I'm dealing with general food aversion. My meals have been tiny, but healthyish. Also, I ate a pork rind the other day and nearly threw up. So gross.
Reading through this I kept thinking stuff sounded good, but not good enough to put effort into getting it.
So I made chocolate chip pumpkin cookies for my coworkers birthday and I've had 2 already, BUT I'm eating baby carrots currently instead of eating more cookies. And no one else is in my office right now. I'll consider that a win.
OMG, because you are the most understanding ladies, I'll admit this. I just had chinese, washed down with a coke, followed by a bag of chip, followed by a bag of sweet chex mix. So not a proud moment.
@sarah-ruby-21 yeah but did you do a "fat kid finisher" on the chips? Meaning, you poured the crumbs into your mouth directly from the bag. Because if you didn't do that then it doesn't even count as finishing the bag.
... I may have done this with some Doritos two days ago
Just had Doritos because it was the only thing “easy” in the house that isn’t hot food. What I really want is cucumbers, celery and a fruit smoothie. Waiting on my conference calls to be over for the day so I can run to the store.
And of course I was on Pinterest passing the time waiting on a client and saw a very yummy looking fruit dip...cream cheese, marshmallow fluff, and frozen orange juice concentrate.
@dexnie, that sounds so good! Love tomato sandwiches, and the Mayo is necessary! Can't wait until tomatoes are in season. The ones at our grocery store aren't that good right now.
Does anyone else feel like the targeted ads on Facebook for food specifically go on pregnant people's Facebook? I've never noticed so many fast food ads on Facebook until I was pregnant, and I'm so impressionable. Right now, there's an ad for a peanut butter Dairy Queen blizzard... Looks amazing! Sonic has also been advertising cookie milkshakes on my Facebook but I don't have any any Sonics near me. Maybe that's a good thing.
My guilty pleasure lately has been ramen, w tuna, peas, and parmesan...I drain the noodles fully and mix the seasoning directly into the noodles. No broth.
I prefer it w mac and cheese over ramen, but that requires more effort...

Yes! And for about 12-13 weeks, it was pure hell because I could rarely think about food without immediately gagging or ending up over my toilet bowl!
I dream about cinnabuns, sticky buns etc all the time, so I had to make some super caramely sticky buns last night and ate more than I'll admit too! So good....
@lilidubs In that situation, I ask them if they can add some of the strawberry topping to the chocolate shake. It is the perfect mix. Tastes exactly like chocolate-covered strawberries.
Someone here told me about chobani s’mores yogurt last week, and I just need to come here and thank you bc it’s the only thing getting me through the day lol. THANK YOU!!!
Ya'll--I had the best thing tonight for dinner. And my weird pregnancy cravings have truly begun! I got hot and sour soup and wonton soup from a Chinese restaurant, took the wontons out of the broth, and put them into the hot and sour soup. That was so good! I'm going to have to start doing that every time we order Chinese food!
I guess my babe is going through a growth spurt, cause man am I hungry again! I felt like a bottomless pit yesterday... ate just about everything I could get my hands on, but what really made my day was Trader Joe's salted caramel gelato
I had two large bowls of Frosted Flakes for breakfast this morning. And I really, really want to go out and get an ice cream sandwich after lunch today.
Re: What my pregnant self is eating/craving week of 4/21
Clearly I need to travel more.
