4AM craving

Just finished making rice krispie treats! Can't wait to eat them... My husband thinks I'm crazy. But when I thought my nausea was easing up, it turned out to just be 2 good days in a row. After being nauseous yesterday and the day before, I'm willing to eat anything and everything that actually appeals to me, since I know I haven't been eating often enough(due to nausea and nothing sounding good). So rice krispie treats it is! Luckily I had marshmallows... =P

Also, lately I can't stand the aftertaste of food in my mouth. It grosses me out. Which then makes me brush my teeth after anything I eat (probably should be doing that ANYWAY...). But brushing my teeth makes me nauseous too. Which results in me gagging and dry heaving... The struggle is seriously real! I feel like I can't win! I almost threw up 2 days ago, but got lucky and it passed. I'm hoping I don't ever get THAT sick... *sigh* I never felt this sick during my first pregnancy. And even when I did feel sick, it literally only lasted 2 weeks! I was lucky.

	Comment from pbc910 » Posted Oct. 16, 2015 1:32pm Do I know that feeling of eating whatever sounds good! At 10 weeks I wanted food so bad but was so afraid to eat anything. Then stupid me would watch food shows on the Travel Channel like Bizarre Foods...and you know when BBQ cow intestines or something like that looks good you're hungry!

	Comment from thomasanddawnxoxo » Posted Oct. 16, 2015 10:17am Oh thank you so much. Its amazing how strong one can be when one has no other choice. And god has held us up through it all. I draw all the strength I can from prayer and knowing that He has a purpose for giving my little guy to us this way. Xoxo

	Comment from stephc2010 » Posted Oct. 16, 2015 9:04am I've always loved mac and cheese! Normally I prefer homemade, but I'm also guilty of eating an entire box of Kraft mac and cheese a few times with my first pregnancy! I also didn't have much nausea then, either... =P I'm pretty sure this is like peak time for me. Everything is making me gag! The smell and thought of orange juice and milk is enough to make me gag right now... I would honestly be surprised if I make it through today without puking... I think today is going to be the day it happens. And I'm dreading it! :( Thomasanddawn, I am praying so hard for you, Harrison and your entire family! I've got your thread on Babycenter bookmarked and check in on both sites often looking for updates. Your strength and his strength through everything is amazing. <3
	Comment from thomasanddawnxoxo » Posted Oct. 16, 2015 8:35am A few weeks before Harrison was born I had a midnight mac-n-cheese attack. I don't even like mac-n-cheese. I made a whole box....ate a bowl and ended up throwing the rest away... Cuz that stuff is seriously nasty after it gets cold lol.
	Comment from stephc2010 » Posted Oct. 16, 2015 8:33am I only made a half batch and they're already gone! =O Otherwise I would totally have saved some for you! =P I'm really really hoping I only have a few more days to another week, at the most, left of this nausea. I hate the feeling of constantly wondering if I'm finally gonna puke or not... :(
