Hi, and welcome. This blog has changed a bit recently. My husband and I fought through 4 consecutive losses to get our second healthy child (born in December 2012) . . . and while we had not shut the door on the idea of another pregnancy, we certainly were leaning in that direction. On August 8, 2014, we found out we are pregnant for the 7th time. A total surprise. So the neurotic journey continues . . . third child or fifth loss . . . I'm scared and confused and just a teensy bit excited . . .

TED - Day 1

Breakfast: puffed brown rice cereal with rice milk, fresh pear

Lunch: fresh apple, apple juice, chicken "burger"

Dinner: chicken and potatoes from the crockpot, rice, apple juice

Snacks: potato chips, sweet potato chips, rice cakes, apple juice

So it hasn't been *that* bad. I'm going to live off of potato chips and apple juice. I feel very hungry tonight, but I think it's more deprived than hungry. I've consumed enough calories, I just haven't found any of them remarkably satisfying.

I did make fabulous rice tonight with some extra calories. I sautéed the uncooked rice in a little olive oil - enough to coat the rice and almost toast it. Then I cooked it in half water and half chicken juice from the crock pot. OMG, it was heavenly! I plan to make it again tomorrow.

So I survived. A week is going to be really hard, and I'm going to need more apple juice and potato chips quickly.
