I hate meat. I used to love a really great medium rare steak and now I can't even think of choking down thinly sliced deli meat let alone chicken, beef, or anything that remotely reminds me of meat.
I hate anything sweet. I can't believe this has really happened to me. I LOVED sweets: brownies, chocolate, peanut butter M&M's, cookies, lemon bars... I can't even think of eating anything that sweet! Not only can I not choke it down, if I do manage, the pain in my stomache just wasn't worth it.
I love love love the taste of pickles!! I always loved pickles but now I LOVE them! The downside is the inevitable heartburn. But sometimes I'm willing to sacrifice my esophageal comfort.
Ultimately, I'm happy that at least I'm out of the throwing up 8-10 times a day phase and excited to be that much closer to holding our little baby.

Yeah for not being sick! That is crazy about the meat and sweets. Gosh maybe you should create a new diet plan called the pregnancy diet! hehehe. Hey, I had a chemistry teacher once say that what you eat can let you have a better guess as to what you are having. Something to do with the difference in male and female chemistry, and eating acidic foods versus foods that have a basic ph level. I don't remember for sure but I think he speculated acidic for girl and basic for boy. Probably a midwives tale but something fun to think of and try to guess. Love ya!! Glad you are feeling better!
pickles... :) That"s funny! :) I'm a vegetarian for 15 years now, I just don't like meat. I didn't like it when I was pregnant either, but for the first 3 months I couldn't eat anything else but junk food from McDonald's and stuffs like that... It was really weird! :)
Time sure flies, you're already 15 weeks pregnant, wow! Just a few more weeks and you'll know that you're expecting a boy or a girl... sooooooo exciting!! :)
Wow! I can't believe you threw up so much. You've had a rough little ride, but I'm glad you're feeling better. My desire... change that to NEED, for sugar sure intensifies when pregnant. I had a hard time with random smells. I couldn't stand the smell of Andrew's deodorant.
I just love you and your blog. I cant tell you how happy I am for you that you are pregnant!
Marie! I am so sorry you've had such a hard time! Don't you just LOVE heartburn! I really thought I wasn't going to have an esophagus by the time I was due.... But as I'm sure you agree: all of this is SO worth it!
you are for sure having a boy then.... hahah with those kinds of cravings! and no sweets?!?! i live off them.. and meat too.. well i hate certain meats but i love my burgers and chicken haha. glad you are feeling better though!
