Have you gone through a pregnancy eating majority healthy?

I’ve gone off the deep end my previous, copious amounts of soda slushies, cheesecakes, ice cream every night type but this time I need to feel good😭

I have three bags of sour patch in my fridge. That's just for the weekend.... My last pregnancy was ice cream nightly and a homemade trail mix consisting of chocolate covered almonds, cashews, gummy bears, sour blue raspberries, gummy berries... unfortunately can't afford the trail mix this pregnancy and really wanting it

First pregnancy was entirely healthy. All I wanted the whole 41 weeks was salad and fruit. Wish I were exaggerating. Second pregnancy the exact opposite. 4 boxes of Girl Scout cookies a week. Ice cream every single night before bed. Chef boyardee. Dippin dots regularly. Bags on bags of cookies, candy, junk. Tips for my “healthy” pregnancy easier on me. Was meal prepping. We would make breakfast burritos at the start of the week so I could just heat it up and go. Premake omelet fixins so it was ready to go in the morning. Pre cut any veggies and fruits for snacking. We still do several of these things to make mornings and snacktime easier. I recently got the reusable “lunchable” containers. Game changer for snacks.

@Ellie I don’t even like trial mix but that sounds heavenly🤩

@Cassidy we go through containers so much and buy so much yoghurt I keep those containers and we use it for everything😂 they like yoghurt? I’m like nope it’s cookies lol

Same, it's why I make my own, lol

I tried to eat in moderation during my pregnancy allowing myself food when I had a craving-but mostly like I did when I wasn’t pregnant. I avoided all processed food in the 3rd trimester bc my midwife said theres research showing that can help keep baby from getting too large. I think it worked bc my second was a pound lighter than my first (both healthy babies)

I ate horribly in my second pregnancy because almost everything I ate I threw up but I could eat hoagies, cheese steaks, brownies ice cream it was bad but everything turned out fine. My first and third pregnancy’s I ate pretty healthy
