Confessions of a pregnant woman...

[Possums]

I also love cheese and crackers right now...with tomato and olives if available...
the weird thing is, before being pregnant I was a real sweet tooth...especially for chocolate, but now, except for odd moments, the thought of chocolate makes me feel queasy and I've hardly been eating it..DH can't believe it

I also crave hot chips a lot...so far I havent had any, but I am going to crack soon, I keep thinking about them!

[water_lily80]

oh this is a bit weird even for me who used to eat whole lemons with my 1st pg...today i cut up a whole cucumber and put it in a bowl of brown vinegar...i think the cucumber is just the means of getting that delicious vinegery taste without actually swilling it straight out of the bottle. mmmm

[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!

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

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

[Netty]

Haha funny as girls!!

For the first 8 weeks I was like, I NEED MEEEEAT... must be the iron or something.

1st PG and this one I also lovelovelove Cheese. I especially love a big slab of cheese lathered with vegimite.

1st pg I could have bonked DH 2-3 times a days.. shame he wasnt up for it. Fortunately this time seems to be different in that regard..

Now after all this talk of salt & vinigar.. I am going to raid weekend birthday party chip supplies!!

[smilanatu]

I crave MEAT...and anything sour...strange...

[Visitor3]

Baked Beans on toast for me? Could eat bb on toast for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

[Mumma&Bubba(s)]

Wow! It's the amazing the different cravings women go through!!
The vingear seems to be quite popular - but omgoodness drinking it straight out of the bottle!! Amazing! TattooMama - a whole caramel cheesecake - YUM!!! In one sitting?? If DH wasn't due home soon damn that would be good - the cheesecake shop is open for another 45 mins...!!!

At the moment I'm loving twisties... I could eat them all day everyday!!
Happy Eating!!

[sassy123]

i went through a few when i was preg with DD. first was pop corn then the wicked twisties and last nuggets with sweet and sour sauce from macca's. well more sauce with nuggets lol.

[cloeychic]

i can easily eat a large packet of S&V chips in one sitting.

now i am realy bad at deciding, so i had one small bag of twisties and one small bag of 'cheese n bacon' balls in one sitting.

all this is while DP is not around!!

[ElleJay]

Right now, I'm a hot chips and gravy person but it has to be specifically from a certain place!!

[Serenitylee]

Milkshakes for me

[BloominRoses]

I'm so embarrassed to admit this but for me right now it's: S/V chips, Gobstoppers, Polish Dill Pickles, popcorn (although that's a constant in my life) and... RED WINE.

Of course I'm not drinking the red wine - although DP did allow me 2 capfuls one night last week when I was bawling like a baby because "I just can't live without a sip - why do you hate me so much? YOU did this to me you jerk".

I used to drink red wine before but only in winter - never in the heat that Melb is experiencing at the moment but I currently have a bottle that's been open since last week that I sniff when the mood strikes. The more off the bottle is, the better. And I don't want to taste it - just want to smell it.

Apparently my mum was the same way when she was pregnant with me - she even stashed off bottles around the house to get her 'fix' although when my dad found them she had to basically swear on a Bible that she wasn't drinking them, merely smelling them.

Now that I've put this into words, I'm even more humiliated. What 34-year-old woman craves the smell of vinegary, putrid red wine? So shameful.

[angelaartsstudent]

I SO miss wine and beer. SO much.

Moreso wine now the weather is cooling down.

Hubby bought me 2 mixed mystery cases for after I have the baby LOL.

[angelaartsstudent]

sorry double post

[BloominRoses]

Seriously Angela - do you live in Melb? If so, I'll come over with bags of nectarines if you are willing to just let me smell your red wine after bub arrives.
