I don’t know how it is for everyone else… but being pregnant takes hungry to a whole new level.
At first I was hungry all the time; this weird combination of hunger/nausea.
It was like... I’m so hungry I’m nauseous.
And when I finally did eat it something, it was the BEST something I’d ever had.
I’m convinced I had the best chipotle burrito, of my life, about 7 weeks ago.
I’m also at the top of my salad making game.
I keep coming up with the most amazing salad ingredient combinations, ever.
AND Casey has gotten so much better at cooking.
He made the tastiest salmon I’ve ever tasted about a month ago.
Is it all just a product of my imagination?
Overactive pregnancy taste buds?
I really hope not.
At first I was strict with my pregnancy foods
After I got through my first trimester, I started to change that.
I’m of the opinion that anything is fine in moderation.
Except drugs, I don’t condone drugs.
Additionally, telling me I can’t have something makes me want it more.
In moderation; I’ll eat a sandwich, feta in my salad, order a diet coke at a restaurant
and I will definitely have a few sips of Casey’s beer.
(I’m only putting this out there so that when my kid comes out weird,
you can all take solace in the fact that I didn’t follow every rule, so that’s probably why it’s weird)
Also, you google the weirdest stuff when you’re pregnant.
Every little symptom - I google.
I don’t even want to share some of my search terms.
20 week ultrasound this Friday!!!
My parents are coming down from Kansas City to be at the appointment.
They’ve NEVER seen an ultrasound.
I’m almost more excited to see their reactions than the baby. Wish us luck!
