what food got you through the mushies?

Yeah, I remember the day you lost the egg.  I was devestated because I was living my life through you since you had hit the mushie stage! LOL!!  I'm glad it is working now.

Policekat are you sure they told you an hour?  My doc said 30 minutes before and after the meal.  Just wanted to make sure you was not waiting TOO long.

Hi Dan - yes Policekat is right...at Weightwise they tell us that you can drink up until the time you eat, but have to wait one hour after you finish eating to start drinking again....I got used to it, so it doesn't bother me.  Anna

Nurse Wolfie (kinda has a nice ring to it!), we are allowed to drink up to the time we take the first bite and then wait for one hour after the last bite.  Every doc seems to have different ideas about this.  Your rules are the more common version.

You found pepperjack string cheese?  Was it light? Where did you find it?  I love pepperjack cheese.

Amy, you CANNOT have pepperjack cheese until at leat 4 weeks out.  Be nice to the baby tummy!

Okay, I hear ya.  Wait. Wait. Wait.  That is all I hear lately!!  I'm learning patience!  Or at least I hope I am!

Just a tip for the scrambled eggs.  I was making mine too hard and was having a problem getting them down. A support group member told me to add some cottage cheese to the mixture before cooking.  The cottage cheese keeps the eggs softer and you can't even tell it is there.  I have eaten my eggs this way ever since and have not had a problem.  I also add the cottage cheese to eggs beaters or egg whites.  It really helps.  And just think of the extra protein!!

Thanks Kristin, that is exactly what Anna told me she did.  I thought it sounded strange but hey you guys are the experts.  I plan to do it too.

Wal-Mart has the pepperjack sticks from Sargentos.  Target also sells pepperjack sticks too, but it's their own brand.  They are not light however but if I have to cheat on one thing to get in my cheese I am eating pepperjack lol.

I wish you the best of luck when you get to the Mushies.  Just think, you get to go to mushies just when I am going to liquids.  I will be waiting and watching your success so I know what to do also.  I can't wait!!

Good Luck.
