Trish, to answer your cheese question, we are allowed to eat Philadelphia Cream Cheese during pregnancy. I asked my pre and post-natal nutritionist and she gave me the OK a while back (I just love it on fresh bread!). Obviously you need to follow the other rules i.e. use it within a day etc. You can buy the little mini-tubs which are really good as they are separate single/double portions. Enjoy
i really shouldn't have looked in this thread - i'm starving now & i NEED popcorn
i've been trying to snack on healthy-ish things like almonds and cashews, muesli bars (the healthier types) but i've also been indulging on caramello koalas, crumpets, toasted muffins and have had to stop buying corn chips since my nachos frenzy. since it's been warmer, frosty fruits have been going down well
I just had crackers with tuna and mayo mashed up - that was good
I need to clarify this cream cheese thing with my ob, I"m dying here. I was previously told it was OK but in the info he sends out at the start it says no
Have also had watermelon today - is that OK Trish or still too acidic??
Willow - I haven't had watermelon in ages (the boys eat it all the time though), I really just steer clear of all fruit to be on the safe side. Yum, tuna and mayo on crackers sounds so yummy! Will definitely give that one a whirl. I feel like such an eating machine!
sloane - Oooh I really want a Caramello Koala now!
Sambo - Thanks for the Philly info!
Taurean - I made scalloped potatoes last night too LOL! I was going to have them for left-overs for lunch, but then my sister dropped by so we had pancakes instead mmmm....
if you're into fruity icy poles, scope out the Berri Quelch tubes - they have awesome flavours - pineapple and passionfruit, watermelon and raspberry, peach and pear, strawberry and blueberry - they're in the tubes - and they have been my saviour on many an occassion!
if you're finding you need to snack regularly, avoid watermelon - it is very high in natural sugar and you'll have a high but then drop really low really quick and feel hungry and sick again...
