| I feel the need to join this thread. When I went to my midwife the other day, she mentioned that my glucose test numbers were borderline. Now that I'm hoping to transition from doing a hospital birth with midwife and doula to a home birth, I want to make sure I don't have any health concerns. So...I'm really trying to eat better. I too have a wicked sweet tooth, and haven't been keeping it much in moderation this pregnancy. I'm also a vegetarian, and it seems that I'm anemic now that I'm in my third trimester...as if I needed one more thing to worry about in terms of diet!
Anyway, I've been pretty good over the past few days. I just now ate one Hershey's Kiss to stave off an onset of mind blowing sugar craving! It hit the spot. Of course I want to eat 10 more, but I'm going to go take a nap instead.
In solidarity with the sweet tooths out there!!! Hang in there!!! |
