Snacking for me as a mom of two boys is anything I can get my hands on. I would have toast with peanut butter. I'd make a cup of tea and cut a few chunks of cheese. I'd cut up some baby tomatoes and have them with feta and salt and pepper. I'd have tea and biscuits. I'd make pop corn. I'd have gherkins out the fridge also with a bit of cheese. I'd have cheese and biscuits. Chocolate was a favourite of mine usually with tea. After dinner I'd have an ice cream or chocolate. I had cuppachino's during the day. Small snacking things for me would be cashew nuts or dried mango. I would grab some chips (crisps) if I was peckish. Some other things in my cupboard were Salty Pretzels.
Rice cakes. A bowl of cereal. Didn't really do much fruit but if I did it was an apple or seedless grapes. Carrots dipped in hummus or dipped in cottage cheese. Eggs in any form. Honey on English muffin. If I think of more I'll come back xx

Thanks so much! I have been eating tons of pretzels. Pretty much all of the things you have have put I like to eat, besides the tomatoes not a fan of them. My hubby just got some rockey road ice cream did not know I could have that, but I will be having a bowl.:) thanks so much.

Cereal bars, biscuits with oats, chocolate, chips, popcorn, muffins, - I tend to go for sweet options over savoury. I would rather eat sweets or chocolate than chips.
Peanut butter sandwiches.

When I conceived DS1 I was trying to loose weight and eat healthy so I had more fruit and yogurt as snacks. I think I also had little rice pudding things that came in tubs in the cold food section (I can't remember what they were called now).

With DS2 I was at home with DS1 so I would bake lots of cakes and cookies. I would also snack on chocolate.

I also drank mostly tea with my snacks which had sugar and milk in it.

Mostly snacks were sweet as I am a sweet tooth.

I used to eat alot of sweets tons of baked goods, I used t love to bake, but I also skipped alot of meals also never eating breakfast or lunch or snacking just dinner and late night sweets (baked goods. I have cut sweets all the way out, yesterday was my first time in months baking a cake, it was my depression cake for not getting pregnant again, but I plan on getting back on track before this month is over.

Thank you, chocolate used to be one of my favorites too, I swear thats how I knew I was having a girl again, because all I would want was chocolate baked goods, and I would stop liking beef the thought of it made me sick.

Oh yay! So maybe we can keep in touch on here, that would be so cool if we both got our BFP!! My birthday is in October so hopefully that will be my luckily month tried in June and August with no luck, but there are a few things I plan on changing that I think could have been the reason I may have not gotten pregnant. Ok so the larabars I will have look up never heard of them nuts Ive been doing peanuts and Almonds and the cheese I am going to start doing. And trail mix I may start and I was thinking maybe salami. Good luck to you, and thanks for the snack ideas. :)

I make homemade Lara bars in batches for the week. Way tastier and WAY cheaper! All I do is throw dates, peanut butter, and dry oats in a food processor and pulse them up and then push them in a pan and freeze, cut and bag them for the week. You can google homemade Lara bar recipes for the exact measurements! :)

Maybe it was more the constant snacking that swayed boy then. Also I have since found out I have pcos so the empty carbs probably didn't help.
