Hello Second Trimester

Dear Stella,

After week 10, the remaining 3 weeks of the first trimester flew by and the second trimester was here in a flash! Mama noticed five major changes:
  1. The tiny bit of morning queasiness actually went away at week 11.
  2. Mama wasn't exhausted anymore and could actually stay up at night with papa until 11:30 again.
  3. Hooray for no more heartburn! Mama could even eat pizza and Mexican food again!
  4. The sudden craving for sweets began at week 15 (particulary Oreos and milk!)
  5. Mama's belly bump finally started to appear at week 15.
Cravings

In the beginning of the second trimester, mama still loved the Healthy Choice Ziti (or basically anything with marinara sauce!) Then around week 16 the foods she loved in the first trimester started to get old.

On to AVOCADOES! Anything mama could put avocadoes on did the trick...usually turkey wraps on wheat tortillas.


Mama fell in LOVE with the Guacomole Steakburger from Steak N' Shake!




Then the new thing for mama and papa was Taco Night on Mondays for dinner, and mama would make enough to have tacos for lunch for three days in a row!

Mama also loved to make pasta for dinner and sauteed vegetables



Mmmm...mama's new sweet craving were Oreos and milk! Can you believe only 3 cookies make up a serving?! Mama could eat the whole package if she didn't restrain herself!




Your Growth...compared to food


Weeks 14 through 26





























Told you the food comparisons are fun!

Love,
Mama & Papa
