This is interesting, thanks for posting it here since I didn't get a great look earlier! I liked salty stuff and fresh fruit with both my pregnancies. Both times I could hardly eat sweets though - gross! Even chocolate, which I normally love, I could not stand while pregnant! After my first baby was born, my husband gave me a chocolate bar. Yummmm! 😋This pregnancy I've been able to eat more sweets/chocolate (if that's even a good thing! ☺️) but it still really doesn't appeal to me. The other thing I don't like at all while pregnant is bread (but pasta, yes - bring on that mac n cheese!). I just find it interesting how a little person growing inside of me can change me SO much. Not just in what food appeals to me, but in so many ways beyond that... it's fascinating! Also, thanks for the iron-rich snack recipes! I'll have to let you know how I like them if I try them out!

First pregnancy: aversions, aversions, aversions. Nothing looked good. I got my first craving in the 8th month, radishes. It promptly went away though. I was sick the whole nine months. Our kitchen is right across from our bedroom and my husband learned to shut the bedroom door before cooking and be careful what he cooked - then had to unlearn that 2 days after I gave birth! Second pregnancy: still aversions, thankfully not as bad though. And still no cravings, I don't know what the hype is with cravings! I've learned what goes down and also that eating around the clock (even when you can't think of anything to eat) is the surest way to prevent morning sickness. Interesting, mac n cheese is a staple of mine this pregnancy too! Also ice cream... I know it's not super healthy but at least my midwife says since it melts in your stomach it counts as hydration. 🤣 Nutrition chat sounds super interesting!

Thanks Erika! I'm expecting my second baby.

Congratulations @Emily Darga! Hope you're having a wonderful time of rest and bonding with your little girl!

Ugh, I need to set myself some better reminders. Sorry you had to wait so long!
