What My Pregnant Self Is Eating

babywiik · July 2020

When I find sometime good to eat, I have a hard time stopping and then after stuffing myself a few times I get sick of whatever it was and don't want anything to do with it🙄 right now it's veggies and dip! A whole carrot and a cup with some ranch at the bottom🤗 better for me than the brownies I couldn't stop eating the other day😅

I am still loving anything with red sauce!!! Pasta, pizza, cheese sticks just so I can have the sauce with it lol. A few days ago I squeezed ketchup in my mouth lol!! Idk what is causing this. Thank goodness for tums!

How old am I? Why am I craving Chef Boyardee Ravoli? 🤣 I don’t know why they have been on my mind since last night.

wychets · July 2020

@potofgolden yummmmm!!!! I want anything with that red sauce, Kroger has them 10/$10 and I may have brought 10 cans lol

So we went grocery shopping and I got distracted by mini chocolate eclairs so we got them and I let DD have one... Pic in spoiler 🤣😂

Latest craving is ice cream every night after dinner 😬 I made banana “nice cream” last night as a healthy alternative and it was super yummy! I put frozen banana chunks, peanut butter & almond milk in the ninja then added some chocolate chips. Super easy!

@potofgolden I also had a flash of "omg chef boyardee ravioli" the other night!! I haven't had any in probably 15 years. I think I can make do with the nice ravioli in my freezer

Right now my snacking food is red grapes every day, but I will admit that I haven't been super healthy otherwise. At least I get fuller faster, so my takeout order of chicken pad thai has lasted me several days...

hedgepig · August 2020

@warmwinter Have you tried putting (rinsed, stemmed) grapes in the freezer? They're my favorite right now!

lindz42 · August 2020

@hedgepig ooo no I haven't, but I'll try it out now!

1sttimemomma98 · August 2020

ALL the freaking fruit. I’ve had a huge craving for watermelon this whole pregnancy but it has recently spiraled into all fruits. I swear I could live off of grapes, pineapple, cuties and watermelon. Trying to watch how much I eat bc of the sugar! But at least it’s good sugar right? 😂

reirei84 · August 2020

@1sttimemomma98 i just fixed my watermelon craving. I've been wanting it so bad, but I kept buying underripe melons! Twice, I cut in just to find a glorified cucumber. Third time was the charm and it was amazing!

I do have to confess...I ate a whole ass cake. I've been craving cake so hard, so I bought a 6" 2 tier cake from the grocery store and ate the whole thing in like 4 days....it was the highlight of my pregnancy to be honest!

hedgepig · August 2020

@1sttimemomma98 I've been loving fruit too!

Lately I've been having plain yogurt and frozen blueberries for dessert and it's been hitting the spot so good for me! Cold, creamy and fruit!

1sttimemomma98 · August 2020

@reirei84 omg nothing worse than a crappy watermelon!!! no judgement for the cake, I ate a whole sleeve of wafer cookies over the course of a few days too 😂

@hedgepig ooo that sounds like a good combo!! I might have to try that with some strawberries, don’t have any blueberries on hand currently

hedgepig · August 2020

@1sttimemomma98 Strawberries sound good too! I know I mentioned this somewhere else too, but frozen grapes are 😍😍😍

mtengl · August 2020

@hedgepig toddler and I snack on frozen grapes (I quarter hers) after dinner. It is great for when they are teething and older

vetgirl2011 · August 2020

Frozen grapes are so yummy! I’m completely stuck on a Mexican food kick. I could seriously eat it every meal.

krystrist2014 · August 2020

Y’all, I bought these auntie Annie’s birthday cake bunny cookie-graham things for my daughters school lunches and they are freaking amazing! If I didn’t think she would cry, I would eat the box myself! 🤣🤣

lalarose22 · August 2020

@vetgirl2011 omg that was me a few weeks ago!! Once I have Mexican food, I want it every day 😅

babywiik · August 2020

Re: frozen grapes: is it best to take them off the stem before freezing and which are better, purple or green?

wychets · August 2020

For the last week still anything with red sauce, salad, and now spinach dip! Yummm!

teachingbp · August 2020

@vetgirl2011 and @lalarose22 now I want Mexican 😬😬

laurenmicheley · August 2020

@babywiik Doesn't really matter if you de-stem them or not. I prefer green, DH prefers red. (Green grapes are a favorite of mine).

potofgolden · August 2020

@1sttimemomma98 have you tried Tajin, chili powder, salt, and lime on your fruit. I love to put that all over my fruit cups.

Earlier I was talking about Ravioli and I came across this perfect gif 🤣 this is so fitting!

1sttimemomma98 · August 2020

@potofgolden first of all I love that gif, made me audibly laugh out loud 😂😂 second, I have not tried the tajin combo but I’ve heard good things! especially with mango and cucumbers, I’ll have to buy some

mtengl · August 2020

@potofgolden yup you live in Texas... Tajin on everything!!! I take canned tuna, avocado, and a ton of tajin and eat that up!

potofgolden · August 2020

@mtengl yep definitely a Texas thing. My aunt and cousins from TN, were like what on earth are you eating.

mtengl · August 2020

@potofgolden it is a habit I picked up here for sure. Coming from WV we didn’t have it plus fruit and veggies weren’t as cheap

krystrist2014 · August 2020

Hahah! Tajín is a Mexican thing, not a Texas thing. 😉 I’m a Mexican-American and grew up in California and tajín is one of my favorite foods! Haha. And if you cant get it then a squeeze one lime, dash of salt, and dusting of chili powder on your fruit is a good substitute. Fruit and cucumbers with tajín was one of the few things I could stomach in that first trimester.

mtengl · August 2020

@krystrist2014 oh I know it is a Mexican thing. I live on the border in Texas and our population is about 98% hispanic. Tajin on everything!

spottedheifer · August 2020

I'm currently at 30 weeks but I've yet to have any real pregnancy related cravings nothing abnormal that I wouldn't occasionally crave anyways one night I did want Krispy Kreme donuts but it wasn't worth the inconvenient drive into town that was 30 minutes away. Throughout the day I don't really have much of an appetite in my go-to meal is typically a salad it has been for years. my sweet tooth typically kicks in at night but that's nothing new I've always been that way

babywiik · August 2020

@spottedheifer pretty much all my cravings are diminished because of my laziness to make/ go out and get it 😅 I guess it's probably not a terrible thing the donut shop is 30 mins away😉

sweetzypie1286 · September 2020

Ceasar salad.... all the crunch

babywiik · September 2020

@sweetzypie1286 oh yum! I haven't thought about ceaser salad in a long time but now I want some!!! *running to put items on my grocery list*

lurvleybunchococonuts · September 2020

@sweetzypie1286 yesss! Salads are amazing. 3rd tri with my DD all I wanted were strawberry field salads from Culvers. Mixed greens, pecans, sliced strawberries, and blue cheese crumbles with sliced grilled chicken and a raspberry vinegarette.

I love making chicken ceasar salad wraps too!

*drool*

babywiik · September 2020

@lurvleybunchococonuts oooo!! I didn't think about making salad wraps! Yummmmmmmmm!!!!!

lurvleybunchococonuts · September 2020

@babywiik they're one of my favorites. I love the spinach wrap tortilla's and that's usually what I'll use for my salad wraps

sweetzypie1286 · September 2020

@babywiik 🤣, gotta love that crunch. This morning I had a craving for fresh bananas and strawberries on cheerios 🤤

babywiik · September 2020

@sweetzypie1286 fresh fruit as been an essential this entire pregnancy for sure! I hadn't thought about cheerios though! I'll hafta the combo! I love getting new ideas about food because I have a hard time coming up with simple snacks, especially when I'm hungry.
