Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 Just wanted to respond to the remark about buying all the veggies and good food....I too started immediately trying to eat better and stopped (almost cold turkey) the caffeine...which was hard I love Dr. Pepper. Needless to say all that went down the drain this past week (ep surgery 3/1).....I'm now back to my Dr. Peppers and eating cookies and just whatever I want....But I'm now trying to not hide the pain and emotion with comfort food, but we all know that can be hard. We went out to eat last night for the first time since surgery and I felt weird ordering a margarita.....like I really shouldn't be....and was actually saddened that I could. Would much rather be ordering juice or water and watching my nutrtition for the sake of a baby on the way, but hopefully....it won't be too long and I will be once again eating nutritious " for two " .

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 oDarci I just know we will all be posting about our pg one on here but sometimes, it is hard to remind myself of that. I was really having a hard time with my feelings but finding you all has helped soooo much!! I guess that is it, the innocence and pure joy is something we lost, but you are right, we have to stay positive, the joys of being uncomfortable, sick, hot, tired and pg will be ours one day!!

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 Cary I know what you mean. The first time a had a cappuccino and a glass of wine after ep, I felt guilt and sadden. When I found out I was pg I thought, wow, I have to learn to eat better (I am a BIG sweets eater) and thought it was going to be hard, now I wish I was! I hope you enjoyed that margarita though after all the " stuff " we been through, I figured we deserve it. (just for now) Hopefully, we will not be able to have it all sooon! ++++++thoughts. --- carylpierce@... wrote: > Just wanted to respond to the remark about buying > all the veggies and good > food....I too started immediately trying to eat > better and stopped (almost > cold turkey) the caffeine...which was hard I love > Dr. Pepper.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2001 Report Share Posted March 10, 2001 Cary-- I did the same thing too. I'm traditionally not a good eater, but when I found out I was pg, I went out and bought all sorts of fruits and vegetables. I also bought tons of purified water because I heard that it's good to drink a lot of water when you are pg. Anyway, that water is still sitting in bottles. (At least it won't go bad.) Let's hope we'll all be eating nutritious food and drinking tons of water soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
