Appetite

The first few weeks of being pregnant I was slightly nauseous but not enough to stop me from shamelessly eating 2 lunches in 1 afternoon to the side eye of my co workers. And then around 6 or 7 weeks my body turned on me. Crackers, toast and ginger ale. Nausea almost all day every day. Being sick on and off all day. The fetal position, ironically, my favorite place to be.

Last weekend it was its worse. The peak. I curled up in bed all weekend and wanted to cry.

But now I'm back in business. I am so hungry all the time. I still can't eat first thing in the morning, which is totally opposite of me. But during the day, I eat. I try to pace myself. But today alone I've had 3 grilled peanut butter sandwiches and 10 wings and a side of fries. Which is a lot more than I normally eat in a day.

And everyday I have a different craving. Right this minutes I have a huge craving for pizza. My favorite pizza from back home. But a KY substitute would do. If it wasn't 10pm I'd be ordering right now... even though I'd have to go pick it up because none of these chain pizza chops here deliver to my house. Now a mom and pop pizza shop would. But KY doesn't have those.


I fell asleep writing this last night.

But this morning I woke up at ate honeynut cheerios and milk for the first time in probably a month or more. Yum! So exciting to be able to eat more than toast!
