  • How many weeks are you?
    8w6d

    What have you craved this week?
    A few odd things - Apple cider vinegar - so I diced up an avocado & tossed it in some and that did the trick. And a few days ago: spaghetti with butter & parm cheese. It was like 10am on Sunday and I HAD TO HAVE it. So I did 😂

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl?
    So so much a morning person. Love the quiet before everyone else is up, love getting moving and doing pilates and then eating breakfast by myself and reading for just a few minutes before the chaos of the day starts!

  • How many weeks are you?
    9 weeks, 3 days (confirming dates tomorrow)

    What have you craved this week?
    Uhm...just ate my weight in onion rings and feeling extreme guilt. I’ve been wanting OJ & carbs, which is similar to my son’s pregnancy funny enough (was thinking this pregnancy was less similar).

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl?
    Everything and nothing 😬. I think if I had my way, I’d be a morning person, but night time is when I can be myself & be productive if I feel like it. Mornings are too unpredictable with DS.

  • @bblair24 I'm also wanting meat, it's so weird!

    @kvh22 and now I want a California roll at 7 in the morning... haha!

    How many weeks are you? 7+5

    What have you craved this week? Apples, pizza (with sausage and ricotta, which is not something I would normally like), chow mein, spaghetti or just pasta with meat sauce

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Definitely a morning person. Probably irritatingly so.

    What have you craved this week?  I've been doing a lot better this week with food!  I've been able to eat a wider variety.  I still only want to drink lemonade and have a tough time drinking water, but I've been watering it down considerably and adding a bunch of lime juice so it's less loaded with sugar.

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl?  Right now, neither.  I'm naturally inclined to go to bed earlier and get up earlier, so I guess I'm normally more of a morning person.  My body usually feels better later in the day though.  I ran xc in HS and we had meets after school in the afternoons and on weekend mornings.  I always ran faster after school.

  • @kvh22 it’s really messing with my mind too 😂 With DD1 it was all carbs all the time. DD2 it was sweets. This time I can hardly even look at cake/cookies/brownies/doughnuts (all of which I’ve had opportunities to eat lately and couldn’t!). I’ll just take meat please. 🤣 @riff323 it is super weird! I’ve been wanting meat sauce too. I almost never eat red sauce because I have issues with acid reflux but I had DH add it to the grocery order yesterday! 
  • I've been a vegetarian for years and I really want a taylor ham, egg, and cheese sandwich!  I saw a photo of it and it just looked so good.  I went through periods of wanting meat during my last pregnancy too, and meat does not appeal to me under normal circumstances.

  • How many weeks are you? 10+3

    What have you craved this week? Hmm, this has been one of those weeks where nothing really sounds appetizing. Once, I'm actually eating, I'm fine, but I can't figure out what to eat because I don't feel in the mood for anything. There was one day this weekend where I was in the mood for stir fried veggies and DH made me a delicious stir fry with veggies, chicken, and rice. Yesterday we saw our friends who have a 18 month old son and it was DH's first time being able to commiserate with the difficulties of trying to cook for a pregnant woman haha. 

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Pre-pregnancy I was totally a morning person, but now I am just perpetually tired and don't feel particularly like a morning person OR a night owl! haha.
  • How many weeks are you? 10+2 (being confirmed tomorrow)

    What have you craved this week? Nothinggggggg. Still dying of nausea. All I can stomach is carbs. I thought it was starting to let up since I had a good day Friday with hardly any nausea, but then Saturday and Sunday I was absolutely dying. I miss food. haha

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Totally with @bblair24 on the permanently exhausted pigeon.. but also, definitely more morning person. I mean, I haaaaate getting up in the morning, but once I'm up I need to get all the things done right away so I can chill the rest of the day. If I could be in bed by 7pm every night I would be the happiest person alive.

    What have you craved this week? pasta! and burgers and fries. and pizza. and zero veggies.

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? morning person for sure! I like to be in bed by 9 lol
  • @kadeephd
    Oh goodness - I’ve wanted meat too 😂. So weird as a vegetarian & while pregnant. I think I just need tempeh or tofu in a BBQ sauce. With DS there is NO way I craved meat.

  • How many weeks are you? 8+5

    What have you craved this week? Still craving burgers, spicy tuna rolls, and a new one, soup! I find soup to be really odd, but it's at least something I always have on hand.

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Neither. I need ridiculous amounts of sleep and my kids wake up at the crack of dawn. Because of this, the mornings kind of lose their appeal.

  • @bblair24 I'm with everyone who cant believe you want meat! Although I did have a craving for red meat on Sunday. I can't handle chicken in any form other than crispy. 

    How many weeks are you? 8w1d

    What have you craved this week? still on the crispy chicken sandwich kick, chocolate malts, apples with cheddar cheese, sandwiches (like chickpea or tuna salad). Having a craving for truffle pasta right now.

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? I relate so strongly to the perpetually tired pigeon. I'm usually a morning person, but I feel like I'm barely human these days. 
  • I guess I’ll probably be giving birth to a carnivore! 😂
  • I went to Trader Joe’s today and it was glorious. I loaded up on snacks since I’ve been wanting more grazing plates for lunch these days - Unexpected cheddar, olive tapenade, hot and sweet pepper jelly, pita bites, garlic dip and veggies, a ton of fruit, pumpkin granola bark, nut mix, dried apricots, cottage cheese with pineapple

    for dinners this week:

    I’ve been craving a sub sandwich so I got ham and salami, sliced provolone and Ciabatta rolls - I’ll toast under the broiler to heat the meat and cover it in sub dressing and mayo. #healthy. 

    Then I got some ready to heat meals - chicken piccata, chicken Parmesan. I don’t mind eating meat this week, but I definitely cannot prep it. 

    And there’s always pizza and takeout. 
  • DD1 requested pizza for dinner tonight and DH happily obliged. He asked if I wanted pasta instead, so I satisfied my craving for pasta with marinara sauce! 🙌 I ate every bit of it. He told me he was proud of me. 😂 why thank you!
  • How many weeks are you? 7

    What have you craved this week? Taco bell 🙈 panera broccoli cheese soup, nutella and strawberries, something unknown... constantly looking in the fridge and pantry for "the thing" to never find it lol.

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? I would say neither... haha
  • How many weeks are you?
    9w4d

    What have you craved this week?
    Italian ice, sparkling water, Coke, wontons, candy, cheese. Obviously not too proud of the Coke and candy intake, but I'm basically vegan so the cheese craving especially sucks. 

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl?
    Total night owl, though I swear life would be easier as a morning person. 

    @rexnie I really have to get to Trader Joe's. And yes to pizza and take out!

    @runsoncoffee yes to Taco bell and nutella with strawberries 

  • @runsoncoffee I literally had panera broccoli cheese soup for lunch today! tomorrow they start stocking their autumn squash soup here and I am soooo excited - it's my fav! 

  • How many weeks are you? 9+5

    What have you craved this week? I don’t really crave anything. I tolerate things and eat them so I don’t get sick but even that list is constantly changing. We’re going to visit the ILs this weekend and MIL asked what food I’d like and honestly I may just starve because I cannot plan in advance what my body will allow. 
    @pelorunningmama even though I wouldn’t say I’m craving it, soup is one of my most commonly tolerable foods. It’s so weird because I’m not a huge soup person and it’s still hot here, but I’ve had soup more in the past month than I have in the past year. 

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Night owl, but perpetually tired pigeon is an accurate description too. Night in my down time and it’s the only time I really get to have adult chat, so I’m usually up late talking DH’s ear off. 
  • @rexnie your TJ run sounds exactly like mine! Unexpected cheddar is the best!

  • @theblondebump our town just got a panera this week!! So now it's 5 min away instead of 25 plus it has a drive through (clutch with 3 kids). I'm way too excited about it! I've never had the autumn squash soup.
  • @runsoncoffee that's so great! I love Panera so much! I had it for lunch yesterday and I literally just ordered it again today (they deliver woohoo). The autumn squash soup is soo good. They also have sandwich options that don't involve deli meat, which I appreciate right now :) Yesterday I ordered a cookie that was 800 calories hahah, luckily I didn't care for it at all, but DH somehow managed to eat the whole thing. We keep joking that he's going to gain more weight this pregnancy than I am, hahah.
  • @rexnie @runsoncoffee mmmm that sounds like a good haul!

    Anyone else craving salty kettle chips these days? This one just started for me a few days ago, but man...
  • I haven’t had Panera in so long! Now I want it. This thread is dangerous for me 😂 I love their summer salad - the one with strawberries and blueberries and poppyseeds. It’s probably out of season for that one now, but man it’s delicious. 
  • @bblair24 that salad is my absolute fave!! I think they still have it for a week or so, but time is running out for sure.

    What have you craved this week? SUGAR. Chocolate. Cookies. Maple syrup. Fruity Pebbles. I am a salt person, so this is new to me. 

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? About a day person? I don't like to get up early, but I want to be up with enough time to enjoy my day. I don't stay up late, but I'm up late enough to have... Enjoyed my day. 
  • @bbrahmbhatt I wasn't but I am now!

  • @mamabee1113 ah if I still have a week, I need to get one ASAP! It would be the healthiest thing I’ve eaten in a month 😂
  • @bblair24 It still shows as available to order on my panera app, so go!! lol

  • How many weeks are you? 9 weeks

    What have you craved this week? Nothing crazy this week, but last Friday I had a hankering for fried pickles which I indulged and it was glorious. Really all I want is carbs right now and no fruit or veggies sound even remotely appetizing. I will eat them, but I have no desire for them...

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl?: Definitely a morning person, much to my husband's chagrin!
  • @anarmillay92918 deep fried pickles are  amazing and one of my faves even when not pregnant!! We actually made our own baked ones breaded with panko a couple of nights ago. They will need to be a regular thing in our house for sure 🤤.

    How many weeks are you? 9 weeks today

    What have you craved this week? Salt. And noodles. I could eat Ramen all day every day, and that's exactly what we are having for dinner tonight 😋 

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? I wish I could be a morning person, but I don't think I'm much of a night owl these days either. I'm also team perpetually tired pigeon 😴 
  • @aisukurimsarang now I’m craving fruity pebbles!!!  

    How many weeks are you? 9+ 2 days

    What have you craved this week? Everything and nothing. It’s almost like thinking about food is what makes me nauseous. Also cooking food is pretty horrible too. Like I need to spend as little time planning for food as possible and just eat it. But basically nothing very healthy. I had some spinach and cucumbers on an egg sandwich with mayo the other day at Subway and kept it down which was a win!

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Oh for sure a night owl. I’ve tried so hard in life to be a morning person, but even when I can make myself get into a morning routine I still find myself staying up late at night. 
  • How many weeks are you? 7 +5

    What have you craved this week?
    Its not so much about what I crave, but more so what doesn’t disgust me so I can still eat it. Last week I was all about buffalo chicken dip with blue corn tortilla chips and this week the only thing I can really stomach is my usual morning strawberry “pink drink” (I don’t go to Starbucks, I make it myself), Indian food (paneer butter masala) and I’ve eaten a ridiculous amount of celery and peanut butter.  It’s sad because I love eating!!!

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? I am neither, sleeping is one of my favorite activities, but if I had to choose I am a morning because I am 90 on the inside and can’t stay awake late even if I try. +1 for perpetually tired pigeon??

    @theletlers an egg sandwich with mayo actually sounds wonderful!
    @mommeleon and @anarmillay92918 I have actually never had a deep fried pickle but I don’t think now is my time to try one. 
    @aisukurimsarang I could totally rock some cookies right now. I have an amaaaazing chocolate chip cookie recipe if you want it!
    @bbrahmbhatt I haven’t hit up the kettle chips, but I got after it with some popcorn chips last week. 
    @forevertired sometimes you just have to roll with whatever you can stomach
    @lexibizzel I usually love sparkling water and drink it all day long and I haven’t been able to go near it the past week. 
    @runsoncoffee everyone seems to love Panera broccoli cheese soup in my family - I haaaate broccoli (everyone swears “but you don’t even taste the broccoli!”) but love cheese and want to love that soup but it’s a no for me every time I try it. 
    @rexnie your sandwich sounds amazing
    @pelorunningmama I love sushi - that’s the thing I always miss the most when I’m pregnant. Not alcohol - allll the raw fish. 
    @eahayes normally I’m all about the carbs but I haven’t been able to eat anything on your list lately (which I normally love)
    @mamabee1113 I would also be the happiest person alive if I got to go to bed at 7 every night!
    @bblair24 tacos also hit the spot for me this week. As terrible as it is, the Doritos locos tacos from Taco Bell sound magical. 
  • @BuckeyeNut05 yum! I haven’t had tacos yet. I’m still craving them and pinning all sorts of variations of taco recipes on Pinterest 😂
  • How many weeks are you? 9+5

    What have you craved this week? I'm also obsessed with lemonade. All water has a splash added and I've managed to drink a lot more water this way. Cesar salad is my weird one. I had it with my other pregnancy as well.

    GTKY: Are you a morning person or night owl? Morning person ever since DS was born. Him sleeping until 630 is a good morning. By 4pm, I am beat
  • Ohmygoodness 😂😂 literally lol’d over here @bblair24 at perpetually tired pigeon 😂😂

    @kadeephd I am also having the hardest time drinking water!! I’m not sure if it’s the feeling of being really full or what but this always happens to me during pregnancy and it’s the worst timing of course!!! Normally I’m a 80-100oz water/day person and it’s EASY. But now, ugh it’s so tough!!

    @bbrahmbhatt kettle chips sound delicious! I’ve had strong cravings for salty things - pickles, dumplings with soy sauce, etc. Honestly probably at least partially because I’m not drinking enough water!!! But I did have the same salty-type cravings with my 2 girls so 🤷🏼‍♀️
  • @theblondebump girl its the first one! Be extra if you want to! That sounds like a cute announcement! I was thinking of doing something Christmas-y and putting it on the Christmas cards.
