Cravings (and Aversions) of the Week...

I am thankfully, no longer craving sweets. In fact, the very idea of cookies, cake and candy makes me want to hurl. Instead, I now seem to be craving pasta... very large bowls of pasta, usually with cheese. Also, large plates full of comfort food. Chicken, mashed potatoes, that sort of thing.

I have an aversion to pretty much ALL liquids. Hrm... this could present a problem. I open the fridge, completely thirsty and can't find a single thing I think I can drink without feeling sick. Last night, in the middle of the night, the only thing I could stomach was a small glass of white grape juice. (I HATE grape juice). I CAN however, drink fruit smoothies and lots of them. I am particularly addicted to the frozen tangerine drink at Starbucks.

The 24/7 hunger that I had with Benjamin started. It was official last night when I was up at 2:30 eating graham crackers, then tried to go back to bed, only to be up at 3:30 eating oatmeal. At 6:30 I had some granola cereal. And then at 9:00, I had an english muffin. I didn't stop there either. On the way to Gymboree, around 10:00, I stopped at Starbucks for the aforementioned tangerine drink and got a blueberry muffin. (my stomach was growling and I didn't think I'd make it through the class without eating SOMETHING). It's now noon and I just had a huge lunch. Ten pound first trimester weight gain HERE I COME! ;)
