Now You See It, Now You Don't

And that is what sums up my tummy description. In some days my old slacks zip up with ease (like today) , but there are days that I can't even pull them up over the hips! Normal ba to not have a tummy growing at 4 months?

I've gained only one pound ever since we first found out that we were pregnant at 6 weeks. Sigh of relief on that, it means I am eating right (not too much) -- my OB said that some mommies even lose weight over the 1st trimester. However, by the 5th month, I should be gaining daw one pound per week.

Ah and by the 5th month (which is December for us) , I can already feel some kicking. Hehe weird siguro ng feeling nun!

People always ask me what my cravings are. I can't really pinpoint because I crave for something different each meal. But thinking deeper, here are some stuff that I liked before but I REALLY like now.

McDonald's Egg McMuffin or Pancake Breakfasts - yup even if I ate already.

Big Chill's Power Breakfast - it's banana, low fat milk, non fat yogurt, wheat germ, rolled oats and crushed cashew nuts.

Dessert - I just have to have dessert, I feel so bad if I don't get dessert. I prefer chocolate :-)

Toblerone - just love the nougat

Powdered Milo and Nido milk mixed together - without water. I just put 3 tablespoons Milo, 2 tablespoons Nido in a mug, mix thoroughly, and eat the powder, as is. SARAP.

Nesvita Cereal Drink

Nesvita Pro Digestion Yogurt (Peach!)

Steamed Fish or Shrimp Dimsum - find myself looking for this. This week my mom gave me tilapia fillets so I can steam them at home

Pineapple!!

Champorado

Nestle Fruit Selection Frozen Yogurt Yummy Strawberry - a cheap P15.00 alternative to BTIC

I don't like fried fish :oP and I cringe at the sight of excess oil. My dust and smoke allergies are getting so much worse that the doctor already gave me safe for pregnancy allergy medicine (I even sneeze and get a super runny nose when I see a dusty house on TV!) And my eyes now easily get tired - they hurt so much after a while of looking at the computer screen :-(

I am bracing myself for an increasing appetite in the coming weeks!
