the consumption of high calorie foods. Bread pudding? French fries? Hot chocolate with whip cream? I haven't yet decided where my craving is directing me.
My window of opportunity for eating these things while blaming it on Bean is steadily closing. Of course, in a few weeks, I'll still be able to blame Bean, since I will be his/her only source of food. But there's something more socially acceptable about a woman snarfing down food when she looks like she her shirt is occupied by a beach ball, rather than a deflated-yet-lumpy air mattress.
Good Point! I better enjoy it while I can.

Posted by: Mabel at October 27, 2005 10:10 AMDude, get ready to be REALLY hungry. Bean is taking up a lot of tummy room now, but once s/he's out you will not only have a lot of tummy room, but a major need for nourishment. You will have given birth, which if you'll excuse the pun, really takes it out of you ;), and you'll be nursing.
Did you know that you require 200 MORE calories per day while exclusively breastfeeding than you do while pregnant? So keep chowing. You will need it!
