In college it was almost all I drank (so bad). I've weaned myself down to 2-3/month max now. Why is coke so delicious? lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1287226 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 16:47:24 +0000 mrsog 1287226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: a lot of people say that! I grew up drinking it so its easy for me. I was never a soda drinker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1287215 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 16:44:39 +0000 Mae 1287215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsog: Nope don't like it. Any sort of sparkling water grosses me out because it tastes to me like it should be pop but isn't haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1287206 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 16:40:49 +0000 mrsog 1287206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: do you drink seltzer? whenever I am out I opt for seltzer or club soda with a lime bc its practically water but not as boring. I drink it a lot at home too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1266923 Sat, 07 Dec 2013 14:43:22 +0000 Mae 1266923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my latest weird food thing: I have gotten SUPER picky about water. Water is basically all that I drink (I &lt;3 coke but I try not to drink it) and I've always been somewhat picky about it. I have my fav brands and I can't do filtered water at home because I can always taste something icky. </p> <p>At restaurants though, since I was only really drinking with food, I could deal and almost always drink the water. Well the last 3 times we went to eat I couldn't handle the water. It had a weird smell or taste and I'm sure it is just me being more sensitive to tap water than usual. But it was so bad I literally couldn't stomach it. Which meant my only other option was coke. Which sucks because 1) missed opportunity to drink a glass or two of water and 2) all that damn sugar in the coke! </p> <p>Boooooooo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1234373 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 19:29:17 +0000 HabesBabe 1234373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want brussel sprouts like WHOA! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1234202 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 18:36:46 +0000 Mae 1234202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HayleyJane: That sounds weirdly good. and healthy! Maybe I'll buy a cucumber this weekend when I hit the store. </p> <p>My current obsessions: Pretzels (I'm on my second bag this week) and Mint Truffle Hershey's Kisses (luckily only about a half bag in for the week). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1192283 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 10:36:42 +0000 HayleyJane 1192283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>New craving from the last few weeks: cucumbers. I could eat a cucumber a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1150211 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 08:25:28 +0000 mrsog 1150211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this is a weird one.. last night I was laying in bed and I really wanted to suck on a lemon. I didn't have any lemons tho so DH recommended I squirt lemon juice from the bottle into my mouth lol I didn't do it but this morning I am having tea with lemon in it so hopefully that will do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1137543 Tue, 08 Oct 2013 07:15:47 +0000 Mae 1137543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Latest obsession: Trader Joe's Blueberry Frozen Waffles. </p> <p>Nom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1112918 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 10:30:29 +0000 cookie_dough 1112918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: It's so weird how much it fluctuates for me. Right now I don't want anything and I feel really nauseous. But then other times I can pig out. I really can't think of what to have for lunch. I know I should eat something, but nothing sounds appetizing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1112765 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 09:59:42 +0000 Glitter 1112765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cookie_dough: lol he's coming around. I had a horrible day dealing with nausea yesterday and he was home with me so I think he was desperate to do anything that would make me feel better. </p> <p>I envy you. I wish I could eat anything that doesn't leave me feeling ill. It's another crackers and ginger ale day for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1112189 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 08:16:00 +0000 cookie_dough 1112189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: Haha, does that mean that he no longer thinks that pregnancy cravings are a myth? </p> <p>I was sooooo bad yesterday. I ended up eating a foot long sub for lunch (roasted chicken, not cold cuts), and HALF of a large pizza for dinner. Terrible! I still don't have much of an appetite, and most food is revolting to me, but for some reason yesterday those two things were super appealing to me. And last night I dreamt of tacos...now I really want tacos! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1111797 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 22:27:59 +0000 Glitter 1111797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate to admit that I have become that woman who sends her husband to the service station at 11:30 pm to get butter. Poor guy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1109893 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 10:29:42 +0000 HabesBabe 1109893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Apex: how did I miss that you're having quads?! congrats!!</p> <p>I had a huge craving for cinnamon rolls last night so I went to the market and got the Pillsbury canned ones... not bad, but they didn't hit the spot. Whomp whomp.</p> <p>I am not feeling salads right now, either, and I think I might have pregnancy lactose intolerance...? I have bad tummy aches after eating any dairy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1109734 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 09:51:05 +0000 whodat 1109734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Y'all. Does anyone go on Pinterest? I just can't lately. I follow all these food pinners, Bon Appetit and the like, and my feed is full of pictures of all the foods that completely gross me out. Like, white bean and kale soup! Chicken sweet potato curry! Blerg. It used to be my little workday break where I could go learn new recipes, but now everything is so so gross to me.</p> <p>Also, helpful hint. The past two nights instead of eating with the kids at like 6:00, I've been having a little snack and then after they go to bed, at 8:00, I'll have my dinner (ramen noodles ftw). Both mornings I've woken up nauseous but I have not vomited, and no horrendous dry-heaving first thing in the morning.</p> <p>(and by "little snack" I mean a whole bag of M&amp;Ms and some chips and salsa) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1109491 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 08:33:16 +0000 Mae 1109491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tarabonno: lol i think the rule right now is eat what you can! It's funny because I've really just been eating whatever sounds good to me, which is not always the healthiest thing (Um... I may have had 4 pieces of bread with olive oil as my dinner last night). And yet I'm still losing weight. Pregnancy is weird. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1109489 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 08:31:37 +0000 cookie_dough 1109489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Beebug: mcdonalds monopoly time is a dangerous time in our household...pregnant or not hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1109476 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 08:27:13 +0000 tarabonno 1109476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You guys are cracking me up. I"m with you on all of these things! I've had two INTENSE waves of nausea hit in the past week and last about an hour. Hoping that it doesn't get worse than that. I'm eating fairly normal except only able to eat things that sound good in the moment, which is never anything healthy.</p> <p>I am dying for poptarts. Is that weird?? I think I'm going to stop on my way home tonight and just give in. Eating poptarts has to be better than eating nothing, right?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1108100 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 14:22:53 +0000 Beebug 1108100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cookie_dough: Is it a co-incidence that Monopoly is back now? Haha....oh what a tease! I was in my last month of pregnancy this time last year and went to McDonalds pretty much every morning (I was bored waiting for baby, off work already so would go read the paper and have my meal, LOL) and was convinced I was going to win Monopoly</p> <p>I got a Happy Meal this aft, I couldn't resist!!</p> <p>@Glitter: lol omg about on the floor and falling asleep! I'm sort of laughing, but more omg, ha! Glad the soup was good!!</p> <p>For the record, lobster was UNREAL last night, I enjoyed every bit of it, yummmm!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1107280 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 10:15:27 +0000 cookie_dough 1107280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: Occasionally I will have something random pop into my head and think "hmmm...maybe I could eat that". Like I just had a toasted tomato and cheese sandwhich pop into my head. I think I will try having that for dinner. But I haven't had anything quite as obscure as a pasta dish from 7 years ago pop into my head hahaha. Although earlier I was thinking of cheese and cucumber sandwhiches, which I normally would not enjoy at all...I kind of want one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1107222 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 10:01:05 +0000 Mae 1107222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Okay is anyone else finding they get the most RANDOM cravings for things they haven't had in years? Suddenly the idea of this particular pasta dish from a restaurant we haven't been to in probably 7-8 years just popped in my head and my mouth is seriously watering thinking about it. Like so much so that I would probably go get it for lunch right now if it wasn't allllll the way on the other side of town (like prob at least an hour+ round trip). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1106878 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 07:55:45 +0000 Mae 1106878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cookie_dough: aw :( I'm having a rough morning too. The last few mornings I've felt pretty good but this morning I was doing the "walk-walk-walk-stop so I can breath and not puke" thing. I ate a cliff bar and I'm hoping that will settle my stomach :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1106875 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 07:53:51 +0000 cookie_dough 1106875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: Haha oh no!! No one found you in there? I've considered lying under my desk many times in the last few weeks and taking a nap. I really don't think anyone would see me if they walked by my office...</p> <p>@Mae: sounds delicious :-) Well...sort of...it would have yesterday. But now I'm down to a cereal diet. that's it. i really don't think there is anything else left I can eat. Not even pancakes :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1106114 Mon, 23 Sep 2013 15:51:37 +0000 Mae 1106114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cookie_dough: i made waffles for lunch.... lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1105980 Mon, 23 Sep 2013 14:55:29 +0000 Glitter 1105980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was craving a bowl of soup.. so I drove thirty minutes in traffic to get it. Got it. It was awesome. Then crazy nausea hit that left me lying flat on the bathroom floor at work waiting for it to go away.... woke up and realised that I had just slept for almost 30 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1105954 Mon, 23 Sep 2013 14:49:42 +0000 Beebug 1105954@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MRSHONEYBEAR: lol doesn't it! In my head it is delish and amazing, I just hope I think that way when it's in front of me!!</p> <p>DH is from the east coast and I had never had lobster until I met him, oh man the love I have for seafood, just maybe not when pg. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1105932 Mon, 23 Sep 2013 14:44:02 +0000 cookie_dough 1105932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm planning on eating pancakes yet again for dinner. Getting pretty excited for my super nutritious meal ;-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1105928 Mon, 23 Sep 2013 14:42:57 +0000 cookie_dough 1105928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MRSHONEYBEAR: Hahaha it did taste soooo good! but now the thought of it is grossing me out. Darn. There goes another food ;-) And I wouldn't worry about the nausea coming and going. With DD I would feel so sick and then have a day or two where I felt great (and I would get super worried and start googling too hahaha). It always came back though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/may-2014-moms-cravings-and-aversions/page/2#post-1105927 Mon, 23 Sep 2013 14:42:46 +0000 MRSHONEYBEAR 1105927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Beebug: OMG, lobster &amp; butter sound freaking delicious. You've got a sweet DH, depending on how you feel by this evening. I hope you're able to enjoy! </p>
