With Eve I craved a Burger King cheeseburger. Once. that was all it took. I haven't touched one since. With Judah it was fudge bars. They were fat-free so it was a much indulged-in treat.<BR/><BR/>I love these Mommy Talk segments! Sounds like you had a wonderful pregnancy! Now you have wonderful Kayla.

Morning sickness (and afternoon and night), I threw up whenever I smelled Shannon's favorite salad dressing, I woke him up almost every night after the first trimester with a charlie horse in my calves and in my neck, surprisingly. Plus, when pregnant with Nate I ate at Subway every day for lunch. To this day my friend who always went with me to lunch doesn't eat subway anymore. Lani pointed out to me one day that my ankles were swollen. I hadn't noticed because I couldn't see my feet anymore. And, I was always feeling hot and light headed, plus the gestational diabetes. But you know what? I still really enjoyed being pregnant. All those symptoms were a little here and there, but not too bad. Everyone would say to me: I bet you're ready to get that baby out of you! And I always said no and how much I was enjoying being pregnant. Of course you know, Rhi was born on her due date and Nate came 10 days early. Maybe I would've been cranky if I had to go a bit longer... Who knows?<BR/>This was a fun post. Got me thinking about that wonderful time in my life. I'll have to show this one to Rhi and Nate.<BR/>love you!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24014954.post-82213375508118807262007-05-01T08:32:00.000-04:002007-05-01T08:32:00.000-04:00I had a pretty uneventful pregnancy but craved the...I had a pretty uneventful pregnancy but craved the KFC Twisters.

Pretty similar to mine. Except that I gained about a ton! <BR/><BR/>You seem so level headed. So cool. I love that you write about being a mommy. Not just about being a mommy to a kid with DS. You know it's part of it and that you write about it sometimes, but it's not all that she is. I love that. A great advocate - but not dwelling on any one thing. The balance in that will serve Kayla well. More than you know.<BR/><BR/>Once again - great post. Brenna enjoyed looking at her pictures again tonight as I read. "Hey mommy! There's that girl that's got my baby!!!"Melanie D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01542313652003967176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24014954.post-33462917519901026172007-04-30T19:14:00.000-04:002007-04-30T19:14:00.000-04:00I love hearing from women who loved being pregnant...I love hearing from women who loved being pregnant - I've had three rough pregnancies, and always wished that they had been an easier time.
