Confessions of a pregnant woman...

[sloane]

i ate THREE krispy kreme donuts over the course of the day on wednesday

now i feel like salt and vinegar chips. yum!

[angelaartsstudent]

A few weeks ago all I could stomach was Nectarines (yum yum) and Maccas and HJ's Chicken or Veggie burgers! SO bad!

Nectarines arent so bad but an expensive habit.

Angelaartstudent, trying living where I live. Everyone has a nectarine tree and they're coming in to our house left, right and centre. None of the supermarket ones. These keep you coming back for more. They are "nectar"-ines. They totally rock.

My DH calls the supermarket ones "potatoes", because that's kind of what they taste like - raw potato.

[Heaven]

mmmmmm.......... nectarines....... i've been eating heaps of them too.

An entire can of condensed milk straight from the can !!! It was 34 degrees and a huge sugar craving hit so I sat in the bottom of a cold shower and downed a can. The problem was that the phone rang so I had to get out in a hurry to answer it and I forgot about the can left in the shower and DH saw it that night when he had a shower so I had to fess up ......

You ladies really crack me up! This is hilarious! I was feeling guilty about devouring a raisin bagel with cheddar cheese at 9:00 pm (you have no idea how much I love those things these days!) but I am totally over that! Bring on the salt and vinegar chips.

That condensed milk story is hilarious!!
I can't say I've tried condensed milk :P
Salt and vinegar chips... I can't get them out of my mind!!
In all my pg's Hungry Jacks Whoppers have been my fave (I say as I look to the empty paper bag and sip on my diet coke )

Oops... double post

That's GREAT!

Lesty, look out. I'm coming over to get those nectarines

My other indulgence this pg has been cadbury choc-coated caramels. Mmmmmmmmm, yum. I have eaten about three bags of them in the last month or so.

We are really struggling at the moment and while we have heaps of food in tins and spinach in the freezer we cannot afford any fresh food at the moment...or any more tins for that matter.

And I SSSSSSSOOOOOOO want a nectarine! I am so sick of food in tins!I want fresh fruit!!!! Wwaaahhhh!!

LOL vent over.

WOW the S&V chips have been popular! I had this a week ago. Was at work and wanted them so badly... nobody knows I'm pregnant yet though lol I ate half a big bag, would have kept going but the inside of my mouth couldn't keep up. Been wanting lots of plain milk.
Apple slice is another I've really really wanted! But luckily I want it from my old bakery and that is impossible to get.

But lately I've just really wanted home made pasta salad and potato salad, but have been unsure of the recommendations of these so have restrained

[Evie76]

I love the idea of sucking the sour bit off and spitting out the lolly. I don't actually want the lolly, I just want the sour bit. The sourer the better!! Water lily, I'm going to do that know, in the knowledge that there is someone else out there doing the same.

Has anyone noticed a similar line through this post. It's tartness. Sour and Salt/Vinegar. What is with that? Do we just need to go out and buy ourselves great big horse licks?

[Bloom]

My confession is jatz crackers - I'm going through a pack a day! It's a bad habit, but I need it to feel slightly less terrible with my morning sickness (all day sickness really). I eat about 4 every half hour. Not good!

[tattoo_mama]

I ate a whole caramel cheesecake from the cheesecake shop when I was about 18 weeks...I still crave them but I limit myself to the single serve ones they make LOL
Also at about 20 weeks I was drinking brown vinegar straight out of the bottle...apparently my mum used to do it when she was pg too.
At the moment its Coconut white chocolate drinks from Gloria Jeans...there's one right next door to my work! Damn they are so expensive!

[angelaartsstudent]

I ate something like 6 curry puffs today. Now am left to deal with the consequences...

[missya]

You girls crack me up!!

For my first I was quite normal, I craved lime thickshakes and bananas, for my daughter it was tuna ( I hate Tuna) gherkins and tartare sauce samwiches which i haven't touched since and so far for this one it's crispy (must be crispy not floury) apples and the lime shake thing is back again.

Man all this food talk is making me hungrey, must go and pig out, cheers Missy

I'm still waiting for the weird cravings thing........I do get very hungry all of a sudden tho.
I usually don't like potato chips but funny you should mention S&V chips - someone passed them round the other day and I couldn't get enough of them!
Last night I really really had to have thai for dinner and being in Melbourne, good thai is hard to find (Vietnamese on the other hand....). So I made a special detour on my way home from work and sat in the only decent Thai restaurant I know this end of town and ate the most awesome Pad Thai.....mmmmmm yummmy! Hit the spot!

lestypuss those nectarines sound awesome. Last week I picked about 2kg of peaches hanging over our fence from the nieghbours garden - had to stew most of them as we couldn't keep up with eating them before they went off. Soon our figs will be ripe tho....yay!

[Taurean]

I inhaled a massive bowl of buttered, salted popcorn last night after work then I followed up with Thai green chicken curry for dinner. I feel like a hoover!!!
