Everyone always asks me what I've been craving. I don't know what it is, but luckily I havent had any wild cravings. When I was in my first trimester nothing seemed appetizing at all. So many things grossed me out. Luckily I was able to eat cereal and that really satisfied me. However there was a period of about two weeks where all I wanted was hard shelled tacos from Taco Bell! Poor dad, he was so grossed out by them! But thankfully I endulged :) I also ate a lot of crackers and cheese and fruits. Interestingly though, my biggest aversion at that time was salad and vegetables! Which is not good because that is what the baby needs at that time! So i had to force myself to eat healthy stuff. Oh yeah and there was that random wierd craving for banana and cheese! We can't forget about that one ;)
Fast forward to 2nd Trimester. All I've craved for is In N out and California Mexican food. Which SUCKS because, um, where I live, there is no such thing! :( Luckily I was able to indulge in In N out when we went to CA in August. It was the most beautiful delicious thing i have ever tasted! Thankfully though, my appetite for salads has returned and I am happy to satisfy that craving. I have been craving Greek salad a whole heck of a lot or anything with balsamic vinegrette (extra tart please!). The need for hard shelled tacos is still ever so present so I indulge in that about once or twice a week! hehe. And toast. Sometimes all I want is toast for dinner. Hey, I'm fine with that. I hate when i get that random craving for ice cream and allow myself to only eat pudding. But its for the health of the baybay!
I'm curious what my third trimester will bring. Sometimes the baby takes up so much room that I feel so full without having eaten. So thats good right! No ravenous appetite is ok by me! I'm trying to keep my weight gain to a max of 20 lbs. We shall see!
