I never wanted anything during the middle of the night, except sleep!!! Early to bed, and early to rise.............slept all night long!

all the things i liked...nope done. i loved the salads at olive garden, apparently the girls didnt. i love ribs, and pizza, lasanga...i would be half staved..3/4 hours of "morning" sickness will do that to ya..

i would settle in with a big plate, a few minutes in...it would just be the worse food ever..!!!! i couldnt eat anymore, and my gag reflex was working over-time..if i coughed one time..hard, i would gag, and have to run to the nearest sink, or patch of grass.

i could eat sweets, like cookies..not cake, i LOVE cake..3/4 bites in..gag-gag...i used to sit and cry...i was so tired of the constant gag, sooo tired of ralphing for hours everyday..and i was sooo hungry..

oh, water...NOOOOO, i couldnt even stand the way it smelled. i couldnt watch a movie..absolutley no patience, couldnt read a book..a mag was ok...

at the end, the total pounds of babies was 11 pounds. i was HUGE..if anybody has been inside a saturn, 4 door...1994..i couldnt fit in the car....had to lay the seat all the way down, and have help to be stuffed into the car.

i was supposed to be on bed rest, but that never happened. i had an 8 year old. my mom said, it was my kid, and i wasnt doing anything, i could get her from school, cook, go grocery shopping..

i dont drive, luckly husband worked a couple of blocks away, he would leave on his lunch, and go to the school. i liked going out..at least i was moving....like a barge...

i love bread...sandwiches, was O-U-T...2 bites..gag-gag...

and i really hated seeing hair on things...i have long hair, and so did my mom..hair is going to be everywhere...i would spend hours picking hair off clothes, towels, blankets...

dust, really set me off, finger prints...if a door had a bunch of prints..like starbucks, yall know those doors have all kind of smuges--i wouldnt touch it...gag-gag...really...it was the worst time of my life.....

wore tissues stuffed in my nostrils whenever I wasn't out in public...and sometimes IN public depending where I was, lol. I had that hypersensitive smell thing with my twins..I think it has a name. If there was a bad smell within 100 miles, I smelled it and started dry heaving, lol. We actually got rid of our fridge. I couldn't go into the kitchen without vomiting because of some odor I smelled. No one else smelled it! My husband and father-in-law took the whole thing apart and cleaned it out, but ended up having to give it away and get a new one.

O.M.G.!!!!!! YES!!!!

How the hell did no one else smell it!!!!

Also, cartoon network had the horrible cartoon, Ed Edd, & Eddie. I could not see it, be aware of it, hear it....it would send me to the bathroom to upchuck and dry heave...

Don't know why, but to this day...I avoid it.

Still have my sense of smell and hearing. I can hear my kids whispering through walls.

When I was pregnant with my twins, I wanted to just chew on aluminum foil. I never did it, but the urge to was so overwhelming.

FOODS - from the beginning of pregnancy until I waddled into hospital:
Began to eat cheese (hated it before)... big blocks of cheese.
5 pound bag of oranges devoured within 2 days.
An entire bag of salad every night.
1/3 of box of cereal for breakfast.
Half a gallon of milk within a day & half.
Almost 2 gallons of water a day.
Coke Icee every evening.

This is going to be pushing the limits of TMI for sharing but considering how much it helped me I'll let down my guard... I have OCD/ADHD so it is impossible for me to sleep if I feel like I have to pee even a little bit... so... I kept a giant plastic cup in the bathroom and would squat/bear down to squeeze out every drop I could into the cup. I'd flush it, wash the cup with bleach and waddle away relieved for at least an hour instead of 10 minutes at a time.

I started at 105 lbs and ended at 162 lbs with a 10 lbs baby (2 weeks early because it hurt to walk & he had run out of room to move at all). My belly was the size of a basketball when I was only 5 months along and the size of a planet in months 7 - 9 1/2.

I know, right? The thought of it now is repulsive, and I really can't explain why I wanted to. My doctor told me it was probably PICA, and advised me not to do it. Which I already knew I wasn't going too. I had a friend who was pregnant that would eat dirt. Such strange things babies do to us

I was addicted to jalapeno peppers though, with all my pregnancies.

SAME!!! my first pregnancy the only thing i ate was jalapenos and applesauce for three months straight!!! Loved really bloody meat and fatty foods, chinese didn't agree with me so hated it.. but with my son.. it was chinese for about three months straight..... and strictly lean, non fatty foods... mainly vegitarian style and couldn't stand the smell, sight, or taste of beef. With this one... it's mainly fruits, milk, potatoes, and bloody meat again with some spicey and fatty foods. (My hubby thinks we might be having twins but will find out for sure today or next week.)

The plan is for me to go to job corps so i can get a degree as an rn ... that way we have extra income.. Right now my hubby has been laid off and he hasn't been able to get a stable job yet.. so we are hurting a bit financially..

....I just saw this now.....I gained about 15-17 lbs in a month, it won't go away, and I've changed nothing about my diet. I eat quite healthy. I chalked it up to age. Maybe you're right...instead of avoiding scales I should go...
