The ones who say they’re so sick in the beginning of pregnancy.  I’ve been surfing pregnancy sites.  And forums.  And some say they can only subsist off strawberries, watermelon and cucumbers…oh the horror of eating too much fruit or veggies.  Better watch the weight there.  Don’t wanna overdue that.

I’m not that sick now.  Have been, with other pregnancies.  Now, I just wanna lay down, maybe gag a bit.  Keep drinking and eating to keep the worst at bay.  But what do I feel goes down best?  Barbecue sandwiches…the smoked pulled pork and Carolina sauce kind.   Maybe a cheeseburger.  Creamy potato soup in a bread bowl.  And eat the bowl.  Um, taco dip with tortilla chips.  Cheddar cheese sandwiches.  Heavy on the cheese.  I made a meat lasagne.  It was good the first night.  The leftovers make me wanna hurl.  Parmesan risotto yesterday.  Same story on the leftovers.  And for the baked potato salad from The Fresh Market.  With cheese, chives, and bacon.  Hey.  Dug it on the 4th.  Threw the rest out last night.

Not only is it fatty, but it’s wasteful.  

I’ve tried fruit.  Veggies.  They just aren’t doing it for me.  Make me gag more.  Plain crackers?  They’re too plain.  More gagging.  A chocolate milkshake wouldn’t be bad.  Real Coke with sugar, for the soothing bubbles?  Too sweet.  Diet Coke with toxic rat killing aspartame?  Pretty good.  So what about doing what your body says? 

This cannot be good advice in all cases.  Up till 3 days ago, I still thought wine for with dinner sounded good.
