for you BFP'ers and others: before bedtime snack?

[gizmo77]

whata re you guys eating for your before bed snack, esply for those of you who have posted your sway and have BFPS

so far, ive been swallowing a bunch of nuts (or one beef jerky), then a banana and if those arent ripe enough, ill have some dried apricots, plus a pineapple juice can (6oz), and a square of dark choc.

Gizmo I always ate cereal before bed with whole milk. Always. But I like cereal so it was an easy choice... sometimes I added fruit if I was actually hungry. But usually I was just eating again because I was supposed to eat again :-)

Gizmo, all of the stuff you are eating is perfect. Nuts are great since they fill you up for so long. It's so hard for me to eat before bed since I trained myself for years to not eat anything after dinner to keep up a good figure, kwim? It's worse than breakfast since I just see all of the calories joining the fat club on my midsection, LOL. But the cereal is also brilliant since that's a protein combo. I feel like it is super important to eat at night though, seems like all of the boy moms had both breakfast and midnight snack.

Oh Lola, you're so right, as many meals a day as it's possible to fit in! I loved cereal or toast as a bedtime snack - pretty much breakfast at the other end of the day :D

That is a great bedtime snack!!!

When I TTC DS 3 (I didn't know about swaying back then) I had either a big bowl of Wheaties or Shredded Wheat with milk and sometimes blueberries, or else whole-milk yogurt with blueberries. Both sweetened with sugar.

With DS 1 and 2 I didn't have as much money so I usually had white toast and milk for a bedtime snack.

I am a big eater and often get hungry after dinner so I almost always had a bedtime snack with my first three boys.

I've been craving a lot of fresh fruits, no dairy at all which i've found odd.

[atomic sagebrush]

Kris, fresh fruit was one thing I craved with all my boy pg!!

gizmo-I eat the same things! lol funny (no jerky I had enough from that for the rest of my life when I ttc #4..I even made my own jerky)
mostly nuts , fruit,for sure and sometimes ham sandwich with melted cheese on it if Im hungry .Oh or leftover salad from dinner because now I eat salad with almost every dinner.

[gizmo77]

im soo tried of salads!!! ive been eating them for lunch and dinner for a loong time (since i started losing weight, then cont on boy diet but adding more meat!) tired of all that crunching. and starting to get tired of the jerky. actually im done with PB (yuck now!) and getting there with nuts!!!

i could use a quarter pounder with soft fries.

[Flava]

Im getting tired of nuts too!!! lol Oh and got really sick and tired of the boy bread so Im back to white bread...hope it's ok...will go back to eat more of the boy bread next month.ehhh hope we don't have to ttc long!

Flava I ate the white-wheat bread pretty frequently ... I figured it was still fortified, and it just tasted sooooo good with a BLT!

yeah BLT is so yummy lol so and because you must have a boy in there anyway then I think some white bread is all ok!:p

I ate white bread off and on with all my guys...it's just that the whole grain breads are better. As long as you're eating protein with it, white bread is ok.
