Goodbye Ice Cream

So since I got pregnant my relationship with food has not been so good. The first 4 months of my pregnancy I couldn't eat anything. My appetite progressively got better but now all I want to eat is sweets which is probably not the best thing to be eating especially when I am pregnant but it was nice to want to eat something. Anyway, I became best friends with ice cream. I probably could have eaten for every meal. But I had my first doctors appointment since my kidney stones this past week and we were discussing that little incident. He told me I should probably lay off the dairy a little. Paul decided to open his mouth and tell the doctor about my ice cream addiction and of course the doctor advised not to be eating ice cream. I could not handle that. I even told him I would eat my cereal with a fork. And to compound all of that I got a call a couple days later informing me I failed my one hour glucose test so today I had to go in for the three hour test. If that did not go well I really might have to say goodbye to ice cream for the rest of my pregnancy! I am crossing my fingers that I passed this one but I guess we will have to see once I get my results. But the good news is that the baby is healthy and doing well which is most important.

That stinks! I failed my glucose test and I haven't had real icecream in ages (it's my favorite food too). They have a bunch of crappy no sugar added and carb smart icecream out there which is better than nothing, but not by much. I wish you a better fate than mine! I guess we know what we'll be eating right after delivery!

That is hard. I love my chocolate shakes! I would die. That also stinks about those kidney stones, but hopefully child birth will be a breeze for you now right? I hope so!! Miss you guys! We want to fly out there this fall if we can swing it. We'll see.
