Still eating for two? I am. No, I’m not knocked up again, I’m breastfeeding the Pumpkin. And suffering killer migranes every few weeks or so. Stress, yes. Lack of sleep, yes. I’m sure I’m dehydrated too. After reading that I need to up my intake of several vitamins (like vitamin C for one…) I now think know that my sucky diet is giving me the headaches too. Vitamin A is a huge no-no in large quantities while pregnant, so I got used to avoiding excess. So now I see I need *more* than normal, and I’m not getting it. What I need is an easy to shop for and prepare meal plan. Did I mention healthy? The idea of going to a meal-preperation ‘store’ sounds appealing but it’s expensive. Nice for when I’ve got company coming over or for a special occasion, but not swinging it for everyday meals. I did try a few things, though, and they are really good, it’s just that when I look at the menu, I can make them myself. (But I don’t.) I have the time, sort of, and really need inspiration and a child that will eat what I cook!
If a child is hungry enough they will eat whatever you serve. We have had a rule in our house that seems to work well for us. If you don’t want what mom & dad made for dinner, you can have PB&J, but no dessert that night. I’ve never had someone eat PB&J for more than one night in a row… 🙂 As for simple healthy meals….there are tons of places to get that info….you don’t need it from me!
