Dear Baby,
For the majority of the first trimester, I was nauseous and puking, having to go to the hospital for IV fluids on more than one occasion because I couldn't even keep WATER down. Now that I'm in the second trimester and the nausea is SO much better, I am actually eating. Yay! But... I'm starting to get those infamous pregnant-lady cravings for the strangest things. And once I satisfy the craving, it goes away completely. What's with that, baby? What's with this bizarre food affinity you've got going on here? Are you going to be one of those really picky babies that only eats beets for a week at a time?
Pregnancy is so weird.
Here is a brief list of things I have craved thus far:
1.) Fried chicken with ketchup.
2.) Marinated artichokes. Like, 3 pounds at one sitting.
3.) Fried shrimp.
4.) Taco Bell.
5.) Mc Donalds' Sausage McMuffins.
6.) Chips and salsa.
7.) Barbeque potato chips.
8.) Quesadillas with sour cream.
9.) Rocky Road ice cream.
10.) Chipotle burritos.
11.) Indian food.
12.) Girl scout cookies.
13.) Guacamole.
I am obviously totally adhering to my healthy, "organic", mostly vegetarian, baby diet.
(Don't worry though, baby, I'm still drinking my milk in the morning so at least you get your calcium.)
Love,
Mama

Ummm... so this is really different than your usual cravings?!? ;)
Jennifer,
You know, you have a very good point, particularly where Chipotle burritos are concerned. But generally, I don't really "crave" fried chicken with ketchup. Seriously, what the heck is THAT about? Ketchup? With fried chicken? ICK. Only a pregnant lady would want such a thing! :)
