Tell me I'm not the only one not eating super healthy....

I always loved my snacks but I feel like with the get up and go at top speed life we have I don't exactly fruits vegetables or anything normal for that matter.

And Half the time I forget to bring water with me and I never ever drink water on a good day

Thank god there's prenatal vitamins

Which I sometimes forget

I ate like shit my whole life and my pregnancy was no exception. DO was born perfect and to this day she is healthy as a horse and smart as a whip.
I wouldn't sweat it.

Re: Tell me I'm not the only one not eating super healthy....

I tried so hard in the beginning to be good. I even lost weight the first few weeks because I was eating so healthy. Then morning sickness came and with it the carbs and ginger ale. I told my OB and she said do what I had to do to survive. lol! Once I got over my morning sickness I tried to go back to eating healthy but even the word spinach made me gag. I still gag thinking about it. I pretty much kept the donut and ice cream industry running for the last 2 months of my pregnancy. DD is perfectly healthy! I would say try to drink the water if you can though- the further along you are, the more important it is. Not drinking enough can give you braxton hicks contractions which can be anywhere from annoying to painful!

With my first pregnancy, I felt nauseous from the beginning and got sick every day for a few weeks. The only thing I could tolerate during the first trimester was carbs. I definitely forgot my prenatal vitamins from time to time too. With my second, I ate healthier mainly because my body seemed to want a lot of fruit and vegetables. Both of my kids are healthy.

Re: Tell me I'm not the only one not eating super healthy....

Maybe this will make you feel better. I ate super healthy with DS and he is the pickiest eater ever and I ate horribly with DD due to morning sickness and she actively shuns unhealthy foods for vegetables and fruit... maybe there is a negative correlation?

I have definitely not been the healthiest eater. I started out good. well.. decent. hahaha now i am just so busy, its whatever i can manage to grab.

definitely not just you!

Re: Tell me I'm not the only one not eating super healthy....

I have been terrible due to my heartburn. I have been able to eat crackers, bread related foods, milk & that's it. Can't even have water so I understand.

I ate like crap during my pregnancy and DD came out just fine. I wouldn't worry too much

Re: Tell me I'm not the only one not eating super healthy....

Nope, you're definitely not the only one (as I stuff an Olive Garden breadstick in my mouth ). I have my good and bad days, but cravings take over!

Re: Tell me I'm not the only one not eating super healthy....

Definitely not eating healthy with this pregnancy. I have a huge sweet tooth and its amplified right now. I couldn't tell you the last time I took a prenatal. I know my weight is in check bc I've been sick and haven't gained, maybe even lost.
