(44) Little Presents - Due in December 2013

I'm the same way I want to eat something one minute next minute it's making me sick lol
 
In my first pregnancy I was craving garlic more than I can tell you, but I had a major aversion to the smell; it was awful and it lasted the entire pregnancy and after.
 
Before pregnancy, I was eating lots of garlic bread. Now I can't stomach the idea. But I do still need garlic sauce to dip my pizza in. :shrug:
I feel like sometimes I crave something and by the time hubby gets it for me or I get it for myself, I don't want it anymore, but I eat it just to be polite.
I can't wait to show. Tired of this stupid bloat.
 
my bloat is horrible...I tried to put on some of my smaller jeans and they wouldn't zip...I still have some jeans that fit but its just nuts...I tend to bloat alot in general before this...but its insane...I bloat right after I eat...Ugh!!!
 
I am SO hungry, it's ridiculous :( I don't want to gain too much weight as I never lost my baby weight from #1, but I can't starve myself either. I had a big bowl of cereal at 9am, then 2 slices of bread with marmite at 11:30am, then 2 more slices at 12:30pm, and I'm starving again, and it's only 3:50pm. AND I've been starving for the past 1.5hrs at least, I've just managed to not eat anything yet. This is crazy though
 
I try to eat when im hungry... as far as my own weight gain I know I will work my ass off after to get whatever I gain this time around off.. cuz im done having kids after this... :) I have craved a few different things.. generally fruit and vegetables.. like carrots.. mmmm
 
I'm always hungry too. Yesterday I was SO confused, as my body kept craving food and begging to eat, but my belly was overly full already! I was getting so many mixed signals, so I tried to stop eating for about two hours and then my belly got upset again - I couldn't figure out if I was sick because my belly was too empty now or still too full! How confusing! But no matter what, I'm always wanting to seek out food. I'm always hungry. Maybe that's why I already gained 6 lbs in less than 4 weeks - more than a pound a week!
 
Hey ladies can I join you all? :flower:
I'm pregnant with my first baby due 23rd December :cloud9: xxx
 
I'm starving too! Unfortunately if I eat as much at each meal as I did bf I was pregnant I feel soo sick and uncomfortable! Yesterday I ate a small meal every 2 hrs and although I was hungry for most of the day it was a good compromise bc I had zero nausea and hardly any bloating :happydance:

I'm not too worried about weight loss after pregnancy. I started out at 125 with dd and was up to 165 at 36 wks when I had her but I was down to 118 by her first birthday. Although my stomach will never be the way it was before lol. I hoping to only gain 25 lbs this pregnancy since the summer heat will be very uncomfortable if I'm huge!
 
Hey Ladies!
Just read back a few pages to check on everyone - glad to see everyone is doing well! I took a little 3 day vacay from technology w/ DH and DD.. even called in sick on Friday and went to Santa Cruz with our family. MUCH NEEDED
Other than that nothing new.. have a nice little bump .. i'll attach a pic.. and craving Garlic like nobodys business..

ps; DD's mom now knows and she's FREAKING OUT. I'm left feeling jealous and unimportant because of the big deal shes making ... help :nope:


PSS: First is 5wks - 2nd is 8wks.. Dr. said i'll plateau since i'm so big so early! I know women that weren't this big at 4/5 months!! :dohh:
.. yet still magically at 124 pounds..

congrats just one!!

Diamond I love santa cruz...I love monterey more...I am going there in june...my grandpa lives there. :thumbup: I actually got married there! :D Love your bump too!!

brit, your so tiny!! I agree about the small meals/snacks...

I however seem to be gaining weight fast...it stinks...I was 134 in january and I am now 145 ish...and the bloat makes me look huge...I really need to hide this pregnancy for as long as I can at work...I started with dd at 165 and I got up to 225 lbs. :dohh: I did, however, lose it all by her first birthday and then some...I was down to 135 by the time she was one...thanks to breastfeeding and beachbody workouts...so I know I will lose whatever I gain...and I am pretty active still right now. The problem is if I don't eat every couple of hours I can't function with this awful nausea...
 
Ugh, you're so lucky. I hoped the BF would help me lose weight, but no such luck :dohh: In my first pregnancy I gained 70lbs incl baby - craved junk, had to eat to stop feeling nauseus... but in my second I only gained 11lbs incl baby - only craved healthy foods like apples, was sick more often so lost weight a little. Hopefully this tme I stay within a normal weight gain.

yeah it seems some women it has the opposite effect on them...prolactin can lower metabolism...I did workout ALOT and diet...I did weight watchers and calorie counting....it didn't just fly off magically...I do hope I gain less...but my body seems to be holding on to every single thing I eat. :dohh:
 
It's so hot here that it makes me even more tired and restless
 
I'm starving too! Mainly in the morning though. I wake up and my stomach is literally growling and that is so weird to me because I'm not a breakfast person at all. This morning I ate a banana at 7:30 then my stomach was still rumbling and I had to eat 2 oranges at 9:30 and then a bowl of cereal. I felt like such a pig but I just couldn't get full at all. :dohh:
 
I'm the same way I never ate so much in the beginning lol
 
Hey ladies can I join you all? :flower:
I'm pregnant with my first baby due 23rd December :cloud9: xxx

Welcome! It's nice to get new people. How are you doing? How is everything going for you? Congratulations on your baby!! X
 
Ugh I can't even puke in peace. My OH was in the toilet (where I usually go), so I grabbed a bowl and went to the bathroom. Then I heard a thud and my youngest fell off the sofa, so I had to go and pick her up and hold her while I finished. Then my three year old gave me 20 questions about why I was sick :coffee:
