(Due to my ultrasound scan last week, multiple Dr's have been telling me to eat more sugar during my last few weeks or pregnancy. For an update see my fertility journey page. Hence why all of these recipes are centered around sweets!! Ha! Enjoy!)

Hey! You might remember I had a similar issue with Autumn being small. My high risk doc told me to eat shakes and hamburgers. He said he never usually gives pregos free reign on their diets, but he told me to have at it. Boy did I. I had a lot of Strawberry Shredder Smoothies from Smoothie King, because they have a ton of protein (30+ g). It was nice to not worry about what I was eating or my weight gain. Of course I gained 45 lbs and little Autumn was only 5lbs. Oh well, it came off in time. Lots of rest, fluids, and protein should be a good mix for you and Clara.
ReplyDeleteI do remember your issue with Autumn. Good idea about the Smoothie King drinks! Thanks for the tips. :)
DeleteWhat a cute homeschool room! Homeschooling is not something I ever planned on either, but it's now suddenly something we're considering (but we are not out of the closet on that, exactly, at this point) for a number of reasons. For now, I'd just plan on doing whatever is best for your kids, and decide later what exactly that means to you and Brandon! Thanks for sharing the links, hope everything was okay on the last ultrasound! You're getting so close!!
ReplyDeleteI know I love the homeschool room.... so organized!! I am a huge nerd and love all things organization.
DeleteThis would be a HUGE sacrifice for me, but if you need me to bring you a DQ blizzard, I would be happy to oblige :)
ReplyDeleteYum.... DQ Blizzards. Not sure why that option never crossed my mind last week!!! I just might have to take you up on it. :)
Deletefriend, just saying hi. thank you for the links.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to eat less sugar lately. But Dr. orders must be obeyed!
