Two inevitable questions that we hear when people find out that Michelle is pregnant are “How was morning sickness?” and “What strange cravings have you had?”
Oddly enough (and we’re very thankful for this) Michelle didn’t experience much morning sickness. Sure there were days that she was nauseous and she was certainly more tired than usual (which is certainly saying something) but all in all the morning sickness wasn’t bad.
She never became physically sick. Again both of us are happy about this because Tony has a weak stomach when it comes to seeing people vomit. She also didn’t really have any food aversion. It wasn’t like we’d cook a meal, sit down to eat it, and the smell would make her ill or she didn’t want to eat.
In fact, along with her need to nap, her need to eat also increased. She’d need a snack every few hours or else she’d feel nauseous. Usually she’d grab something healthy like apples and peanut butter, grapes, or cherries but on occasion Spraggle would demand something else. Along these lines there have not been any strange cravings yet. Macaroni and Cheese is certainly her pregnancy food of choice. As well as fresh summer fruit like watermelon and cherries.
We have only encountered one strange meal and that was during a stop at Wawa when she wanted Baked Potato Soup, apples and peanut butter, Skittles, and pickles. Not all at the same time, mind you. But she did proceed to eat them all in succession while in the car.
While we’re sure there are strange quirks and cravings in our future so far there has not been too much of note.
