Hope2OneDay- Lol I LOVE the mashed potatos in the box!! I bought like 10 boxes the other day when my b/f and I went grocery shopping.. he looked at me like i was nuts.. all I could say was "I want potatos" lol he was like "I see that" but yeah its really fast and convenient so i love it because alot of the time I will eat breakfast around 9 and then lunch around 1 and then i work from 3 to 11 at night and have an hour drive home so i dont get to eat a meal again until midnight or later.. so ill just make a box of those, grab a fruit cup and im good to go! lol... what is chick-fil-a? Kind of like a Kentucky fried chicken?? I have never heard of that! lol

Betty12- Lol yeah sometimes I feel really bad about just eating what I crave but I heard that one of the reasons you crave things when your pregnant is because its stuff the baby needs.. chocolate cake?? lol no idea why the baby would need that but hey! whatever.. lol Yeah i was really small before I got pregnant too.. so now I just kind of feel fat.. which *****.. lol Im 5'1" so I weighed 91 pounds before.. and now im 105.. But yeah just like you, im all belly.. My thighs have gotten a little bigger but otherwise I havent gained weight anywhere else yet.. Just in my belly.. lol well I guess with all my snack food and candy cravings I will have to hit the gym alot after the baby.. good thing we have a SNAP fitness lol 24 hour gyms are the best.

I love potatoes and anything with hot sauce this time around, lots of fruit too!!! With my first pregnancy I would cry if I ran out of spaghetti-o's with meatballs, and I ate meatballs and potatoes almost daily! Toward the end it was french vanilla ece cream. The cravings haven't been as strong this time around, but that might be due to newly having braces put on my teeth and having a tooth pulled to make room for the movement-uuuugh!

[mamaofonetrying42]

Ummm. salt and Vinger Chips!

[Asking4aMiracle]

ohh theyre opening a chick-fil-a here in vegas soon, ive never had them but ive heard nothing but good and looking forward to trying them!!

man today i started dry heaving!! i hope i dont start getting morning sickness, or any time of the day sickness, im fine with the nausea!!

i wanted those peppers so bad a couple weeks ago but cannot look at them without feeling sick now!! =( and they were good!!

[Hope2OneDay]

I've been eating a lot of mashed potatoes too! I just had them three times in the  past few days. I actually bought a few of the packets (where you just add water) so I'd have them on hand. So much quicker than having to make them homemade! Just add a little milk and butter to them, and they're sooooo good!

Something that I ate during my ENTIRE last pregnancy (and I'm sure will be during this pregnancy, too) is Chick-Fil-A!! I love that place!
Even if I just get a kids meal of chicken nuggets and waffle fries, I'm good to go!
And their IceDream cones and cookie milkshakes...mmmmmm.

I ate so much of that place during my first pregnancy that I ended up dressing my son up as a Chick-Fil-A cow for Halloween last year (I'll add a picture of it to my photos so you can see), and his "first" Christmas ornament is one of their tiny plush cows with a red ribbon around the neck. I could eat there every day ANYWAY, but it's much worse when pregnant! :-)

[Riot_Queen]

My first trimester it was pickled banana wax peppers and pickles.

Then as I approached my second trimester is was try lucky charms [[I'd just eat it right out of the box]] and cherry cheese cake,

Then during my 2nd trimester it was Hot Fries [[that you buy at the gas station. big ole bag for $.99 lol]], Arizona Green Tea with honey, MacDonalds french fries, and Sweedish fish.
LOL

But now I'm less than a month away from my 3rd trimester and I've been craving stuff from Dunkin Donuts.

I dunno if it's pregnancy related, or if it's just cuz the fact that my fiance is working there temporarily and he always can bring me home something if I wanted something.

But I've been craving Boston Cream donuts, strawberry banana smoothies, and coffee coolatas.
LOL

That's another thing!
This past month I've been obsessed with ANYTHING flavored strawberry-banana.
Like SO bad!

Yogurt, smoothies, candy, drinks... ANTYHING.

I love it!

[betty12]

lol my diet revolves around my cravings also.lol but its always choclate cake something bread which makes people fat but to me its like my belly is all baby i was way small before i got pregnant or so i think i only weight 109 and im 5"2" but now im huge i think since ive never seen myself like this before its like woah i way 129 now and ill be 6 months on the 27th so yeah....but yeah i eat weird too ill mix weird things up that usually you wouldnt have togather..i snack alot too i felt like i was the only one who is always snacking.and craving candy.

[mj_mommy_manda]

lol thats exactly how i am.. I will like eat ALL snacks all the time.. I ALWAYS have sunflower seeds in my car.   Its strange because I used to be like ok.. Im hungry Im going to eat spaghetti and breadsticks but now its like.. spaghetti and strawberries and chocolate cake and then some nerds.. lol my diet revolves around my cravings!

[casandbaby]

when i was pregnant i had a huge craving for salt and vinegar chips, didn't eat to many though but it was my biggest craving. I also had a big craving for anything reeses expecially nut ragous(sp?) and strawberries =]

[Asking4aMiracle]

ohhh that makes sense, wow thanks!! =)

[Atlantisea]

They think that women find sour hard to tolerate when pregnant because of survival instincts. Many sour things that grow naturally are poisenous, so it is supposed to be a protective thing for the baby. What would have made us ill might harm bub!

Oh, and I am eating mashed potato with peas mixed in, and mint sauce and salt on top atm!

[betty12]

lol we are so much alike i love sun flower seeds but , i never really did before i got pregnant mashed potatoes are my favorite  and fudgesicles i love and nerds are the best.i  i latley been craving chocolate donuts and now i want a warm chocolate chip muffin.but then when it comes down to real food i never know what i want! lol i dont crave real food like for dinner or whatever.

[kelliestarr]

SWEETS

[Asking4aMiracle]

oh that burger made me remember, the other day i was craving a nice juicy (well done) steak with a1 sauce mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, it was so good and im not really the biggest meat eater!! but thats what i wanted for dinner and it was GOOD!! also anything sour lately is like 100 times more sour. i usually like sour stuff but lately EVERYTHING is too sour, even stuff like skittles was kinda sour!! i dunno!! =) anyone else with the sour?

[mj_mommy_manda]

I have been obsessed with sunflower seeds, mashed potatos, nerds, fudgesicles, and STRAWBERRIES! I think I could literally eat a pint of strawberries a day.. Anything that has strawberries in it or tastes like strawberries.. which is really weird because I was never really crazy about them before.. but 2nd place def. goes to mashed potatos.. with LOTS of butter.. lol

[Atlantisea]

I am craving salty things, cheesy meaty burgers and roast meat and vegies. (for the last week)

But for the rest of my pregnancy before that, I was craving fruit (mainly mandarins) and tomatoes. Anything watery.

I seem to be completely avoiding chocolate, lollies and desserts. (of which I am usually a BIG fan)

And right now I can't handle anything with too rich a flavour. (very unusual for me)
I am definitely after plain, simple foods.

[pmperez]

anything peanut butter....I could eat fried eggs with bacon every morning, strawberry quick with milk(have that every night) but now that I have been sick with my gall bladder the pain outweighs the cravings, so now Im having to eat kinda bland food(yuck) I love spicy food!

[BTS1022]

I think it is the vinegar myself, I eat my mangos with apple cider vinegar and can't have them any other way lol. I just peel the mango, cut into slices, and stick the slices in a bowl of ACV and off I go with the munching lol.

[Asking4aMiracle]

i honestly think it has something to do with the vinigar!!(sp??) so many woman crave pickled things, peppers, PICKLES, pickles olives, or it just might be a coincidence(sp??) but so many do its gotta be something, is there any research on it?

[Hope2OneDay]

I remember going through "phases" of cravings last pregnancy...Slim Jims and Pringles were a staple for quite a few weeks!

So far, the only things I've really craved so far (and this may not even be related to my pregnancy) is Golden Grahams, Mentos (Strawberry flavor!), Cheddar Bacon Fries that you get in a bag (on the potato chip aisle) and chocolate milk! LOL  I limit my choc milk to one small glass in the morning, because I don't drink plain milk.

[mamaofonetrying42]

The bannana pepper? Ummmmm. I ate a jar of them as well early in my pregnancy. haha

[Asking4aMiracle]
