Cravings

With pregnancy, obviously comes cravings, and mine are BAD. I was hoping that I wouldn't balloon like I did when I was pregnant with Lucy. Average weight gain for a pregnancy is 25-30lbs, and with Lucy I gained a whopping 55! I'm slightly embarrassed about it. My BIL's wedding is only a short 6 weeks after my due date, and I do not want to be huge for the pictures, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to be.

Lately I have been having cravings that I cannot satisfy. I crave things that I'm not supposed to have while pregnant and it is rough. I'm only allowed to have one fish meal a week, and although I make myself SALMON SINIGANG or SHRIMP PANCIT every week, it just is not enough!

Lucy loves salmon sinigang btw. I work 2 nights a week, so when Tommy has Lucy for the majority of the day while I get some rest, Tommy will request for me to make a sinigang of some sorts in the crock pot. Even though Lucy always eats all of her food, sinigang is one of the dishes where Tommy doesn't have to sit her down at the table to eat. He let's her play and she will diligently come back to get spoonfuls of it, so he can do his work on the computer at the same time. I have a filipino baby for sure =]

I told Tommy that I didn't mind him not being there for the delivery of this baby if it was because he was getting me a spicy tuna roll from our favorite sushi place here. hahah. You think I'm joking! I just can't wait to go to California soon so I can have super fresh sushi, baked pampano, fried tilapia, calamari, and fried bangus all in one meal!!!.... ughhh so good!


Until then, please do not post pictures of your delicious raw sushi rolls!
