Eat, Drink and be Pregnant!


I am not a finicky eater, I eat and drink most things offered to me. My mom told me she never had any problems with my dietary habits as a kid. I am just not very fussy with food.

That will be the premise of this 12 week mark, as things now are very different. I am making 2 lists: 1) Foods I used to love but now can't think about 2) Foods I now eat, that I very rarely ate before

1)

1. Fried Foods - I loved eating on occasion but now I have to leave the room of the smell
2. Meat - almost all meats have an aftertaste of liver
3. Bread - only ok if someone else makes the sandwich
4. Pasta- ate for 2 days during the first weeks of pregnancy and then it made me think of the garbage can
5. Tuna - also makes me think of garbage that has been mixed in a smoothie maker
6. Boiled or stirfried vegetables - has the consistency of jelly soap but with no taste
7. Rice - only ok in baked sushi and at room temperature
8. Coffee - smells and taste gross and makes me think of a dry, soar throat
9. Cheese - smells like sweat

2)

1. Milk - gallons a day. It has to be 2% organic
2. Citrus - whole lemons, no kidding
3. Indian food- just so I can mix the cucumber youghurt with the lentils
4. Youghurt of any kind
5. Pretzels, popcorn and ricecake chips
6. Frozen Youghurt - my new vice, I eat it every day. Stawberry and tart with gummy bears...mm

I will update the list at the end of the second trimester.

  1. hahaha! Jag kunde inte heller äta kött när jag var gravid med Ruben. Och inte kalkon (kräkte av bara tanken efter julen -04 då vi bara åt kalkon). Stekt mat fick mig också att lämna lägenheten. Citron var dock det godaste som fanns, jag åt dem gärna som apelsiner. Indisk mat frossade jag i och glass/frozen yoghurt: mmmm! Och is. Jag tycker egentligen inte om is i dricka, men jag kunde äta hela ispåsar som gravid. Herrgud så gott det var! Lycka till med dina cravings och hojta om du saknar ngt från sverige för då kan jag skicka det! kRAM

  4. Nix, det var inte alls så när jag väntade Frank. Då var det bara surt godis som gällde. Fast jag glömde berätta om den mest värdelösa cravingen jag hade när jag väntade Ruben: vispad grädde. Jesus Kristus vad grädde jag åt i slutet. Upplysningsvis är det inte alls bra för vikten (som man inte alls ammar bort sen... ;-) )
