7 weeks and all I want is a McDonald’s hashbrown

[happilyretired]

That’s all. That’s the tea.

 

[mitchw]

@happilyretired I survived off of potatoes until just like last week. I’m 12w5d and finally able to eat normally again

 

[kingofaces]

@mitchw This was me with my first pregnancy! Baked potatoes and (weirdly enough) Brussels sprouts until about 15 or 16 weeks.
This time around I wasn’t nearly as sick, but the cravings have been all over the place .

 

[rodney75]

@kingofaces Seriously! Brussel sprouts hit differently when your pregnant! Same with vegetable tempura… that sweet dip sauce is

 

[amximuspitta5158]

@rodney75 Stuck with me after though - Brussel sprouts with bacon, fried up. My jam!

And I hated Tex-Mex all through pregnancy. Couldn't stomach it.

 

[cozimokid]

@mitchw I can also only stomach potatoes. Sick of the judgement from others that I can’t stomach anything else

 

[walkforgod101]

@cozimokid Throw up on them

 

[katrina2017]

@cozimokid I lived on snickers as my main calorie source for a few weeks. Screw those people, it's survival mode.

 

[abideandrest]

@mitchw Basically same...I've solely lived off of various forms of potatoes and dinosaur nuggets for the last...5 weeks? 13w2d today. Hardly anything else will stay down.

@mitchw Saaaaaame.

Then my midwife told me “better switch to sweet potatoes because of your BMI.”

…..why do we still look at BMI? Like for real.

Rude.

(Edit to add: I’m at 10 weeks and haven’t gained a single pound during pregnancy. I also lift weights seriously.)

@mitchw Potato skins have plenty folic acid. You may have been wanting for that :3

When I was pregnant a couple years ago I basically just told my partner that we like potatoes and we only like potatoes lmao it’s pretty much all I ate too. That and chipotle.

 

[orthodox4life]

@happilyretired All I wanted to eat during my first trimester was McDonald’s fries and a plain cheeseburger lol

 

[shorebird1581]

@orthodox4life Omg me too!! I hadn’t had Mcdonalds in 15 years before getting pregnant

 

[might]

@orthodox4life Same here. It’s the only thing that didn’t make me sick. Thank god for McDonald’s.

 

[jeffwilly001]

@orthodox4life SAME! Cheeseburger plain + basket of fries

 

[mottorpop]

@orthodox4life I survived solely on McDonald’s and prenatal vitamins for weeks 6 to like 15 lol . The cheeseburger and fry combo was everything to me with the occasional mcchicken

 

[prettythings]

@orthodox4life Mcdouble and small fry, I'd only allow myself once a week but it's what i craved lol

 

[helpmetohelpothers]

@orthodox4life I never ate McDonald's cheeseburgers in my life and during that first trimester they were one of the only things I could keep down, extra pickles and not so much as a whiff of onion. Bless my sweet husband if I texted him that I was having a particularly rough go or he came home to find me zoned out sitting bolt upright on the couch and breathing through nausea he would show up with said cheeseburgers.

@happilyretired Go get it and enjoy it!
