I have a big appetite and the small fries just dont work for me lol</p> <p>@tororojo: i craved mcdonalds milkshakes really badly when i was pregnant. I avoided any softserve in the beginning because I know they dont clean the machines very well. but in my 3 rd trimester I gave in and indulged a bit </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242502 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 18:10:18 +0000 mrs. wagon 242502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessLC: it does get a bad rap, but I never feel bad indulging once a few weeks or so! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242500 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 18:09:10 +0000 mrs. wagon 242500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: love it ;-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242492 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 18:04:48 +0000 SAHM0811 242492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Modern Daisy: haha what's so scary about going to McD's in NYC? the people who hang out there 24/7 or the usually rude staff?

I didn't actually ask mine about which foods to avoid and I don't go back for 2 weeks, have just been sticking to general guidelines found online but now I'm wondering if some of them are overly cautious/totally not necessary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242412 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 16:34:58 +0000 BSB 242412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually get 4 piece chicken nuggets with sweet and sour sauce, cheese burger w/o onions and small fries.</p> <p>I usually share a drink with the DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242401 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 16:22:15 +0000 WALLAROO 242401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: I think I missed the no soft serve/frozen yogurt rule. I didn't see it on my list of food to avoid. Crap! I think I've had frozen yogurt and dipped cones at least 5 times during this pregnancy. I will need to bring this up with my doctor on Friday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242387 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 16:11:50 +0000 ladyfingers 242387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yummmmmmm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242371 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 16:00:24 +0000 Modern Daisy 242371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heart McDonald's also!!

I may break down and have an M&amp;M McFlurry later, yum! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242336 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 15:19:58 +0000 sorrycharlie 242336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: that $1 menu is my friend! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242335 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 15:19:28 +0000 mrs. wagon 242335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: During my first pregnancy I hadn't heard of the no soft serve rule. Seriously, I don't think it was on the list of foods to avoid back then!! And it was just 3 years ago. In fact, McFlurries were one of my biggest cravings so I had several a week. I cut down quite a bit with the second pregnancy but I still regularly had McFlurries as well as Pinkberry.</p> <p>@sorrycharlie: slightly different but I'd still call us McD's sisters. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242334 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 15:16:36 +0000 sorrycharlie 242334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hah! I get the SAME thing, but a 4-piece nugget, and hi-c orange instead of coke. so I guess not the same thing. </p> <p>my go to is: mcdouble only ketchup, small fry, 4 piece nugget, hi-c orange. and m&amp;m mcflurry, snack size! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242333 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 15:15:32 +0000 tororojo 242333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are McFlurries included in the no soft-serve rule if you're pregnant?</p> <p>*ETA* I keep craving milk shakes and stuff from fast food places but assuming that they're not allowed. I didn't actually ask my doctor but don't want to assume they're okay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dirty-little-secret#post-242307 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 14:54:37 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 242307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly I'm not a McD fan, but this thread is making me crave some.

All Korean food. Yum. </p> <p>But they just went out for a day off to shop and have dinner out, and I'm sending Wagon Sr. to McDonald's for a Tina Special, STAT. Including McFlurry. (Tina Special includes a McDouble, 6 piece nuggets, small fries, diet coke. He usually gets himself a McChicken and we share everything.)</p> <p>Yeahhhhh. </p>
