I think I'm starting to get cravings. They're not weird cravings, but when I want something I HAVE to have it! Lately I've been eating tons of cereal. I'll wake up at 3:30am to have a bowl. I don't know why but cucumbers have been another thing I can't stop eating. Pickles are another fav too. Blake went shooting with some friends tonight and I'm making him stop at the store and get me some chocolate chip cookies so I can dunk them in milk, lol! I feel like I'm eating a lot more now. When I went to my drs. apt she said I'm finally starting to gain some weight. I only gained 2 pounds in my first trimester and now I'm up to 7 pound total and I'm 18 weeks along. I don't know if other people felt like this but I'll just be watching t.v. or doing something when all of a sudden I feel like I'm starving. It just hits me out of no where! My dr. said to eat 6 small meals a day so I can try and gain more weight, but we'll see about that! I'm still working out, walking, and running, so hopefully I won't balloon up with all of this eating I'm doing!!

Cravings? Jeff'll tell you that all I wanted were green olives (I'd eat the WHOLE jar at once) and pickles. I guess I wanted salt. When my feet swelled up, I snuck those still even though I wasn't supposed to eat things that were salty.
ReplyDeleteI only gained 2 lbs my first trimester too. They say that some people actually loose weight initially. You'll be fine. Just eat healthy and make sure you're getting enough to nourish the baby.
