Chocolate and swaying pink?

[atomic sagebrush]

I normally eat dark chocolate every day. While swaying I eat milk chocolate.

I ate dark choc almost every day with DS 3 too!! My boss realized I liked the dark choc Dove bars and brought them to me all the time!!!

trust me that is nothing, i completley went all out the other weekend, I felt so guilty especially when stealing my dear partners bacon and eggs from his plate, but the smell was just too much and it was just there and once i started i couldnt stop and blew all my levels out the window for the entire weekend on just that one meal im certain .....Kinda got him to make me some, BUT i figured and after much re assurance from the dear Atomic, i know I have enough time to get things back on track before i ttc, one treat here and there wont hurt, although i am on the LE diet i think for some reason the IG diet still is in the back of my mind when it comes to foods, I keep reminding myself No food is out of bounds as long as i keep within my ranges of calories sodium protein etc. But i have cut out meat and fish altogether which has been soooooo hard for me but its only for a short time not forever and if it helps make my dreams come true then it was all worth it!

Think of it this way - even our prehistoric mammal ancestors occasionally found a woolly mammoth or a nice beehive to eat. But one feast doesn't really tell our bodies anything about how much food we have access to on a daily basis - it's the day in, day out diet that matters for the survival of our future offspring.

Thank you all for making me feel at ease. I have the boys warned to hide when eating their easter eggs this weekend ,so mammy does'nt accidently eat some.

omg Atomic, lol I had a crazy obession with Dove Dark Choc bars & squares before i concieved DS2, enough that for secret santas or bday presents at my old job, the employees spoiled me with Dove bars LOL, I blame the dark choc. Dove bars for DS2's existence!

I think milk chocolate, esp. cheap chocolate is perfect for a girl sway as a 'treat' here and there

I ate a small amount of chocolate almost every day in the last month or so of my sway: hot chocolate, chocolate wafer cookies, chocolate ice cream, mini chocolate bars - you name it! One concession I made was switching from my usual dark chocolate to milk chocolate. I even ate a piece of chocolate cheesecake the day before O and on O day since it was Christmas Eve, I was depressed, and I felt I deserved something special . No damage done, though - I still got my girl .

I just read a study that claimed to prove that eating chocolate during pregnancy yielded a better behaved child!

Probably just nonsense but hey, my thinking is, that's a pretty good excuse!!!

Awe! You will have the perfect referee in September to make them all softies.

Has it sunk in yet? I'd say you are walking on air the past few days.

It still doesn't feel real. I still find myself calling the baby 'it', but we DID finally decide to tell our boys they're getting a baby sister, and they were pretty excited .
