Picky Eater

After nearly 12 weeks of pregnancy, I seem to have settled into things pretty well. I now accept that I am going to need at least 3 naps a week, and headaches are a regular part of my pregnancy. And now that I am more aware of my moodiness, I have definitely improved for Drew's sake and the sake of everyone else around me.

The one thing I've discovered that is difficult for me to deal with is my new found eating habits. Anyone who knew me before pregnancy, knows very well how much I LOVE FOOD of any and all kinds. Now, food just does not carry as much joy. At first, it was because I was constantly wondering, "can I eat that," but now it is just plain pickiness. Chicken is no longer a possibility--too slimy, and fruits and sweets, well I can only eat those in small amounts because they only enhance my lightheadedness. To be honest, I could likely count the foods that I DO enjoy right now on my two hands, and that leaves me a little concerned for this baby and his or her food preference. I can only pray that he or she does not come out this picky. If that is the case, we will definitely be having a little talk.

Give it a few more weeks. The food thing gets better...somewhat. I still haven't done well with chicken or any meat really, and I'm 36 weeks. :)
