Anyone else tired of all these rules?

[CherylB79]

Ever since I spent a whole pregnancy heroically resisting my craving for peanut m & m’s due to nut allergy advice, only to find later that I needn’t have bothered, I have felt a little rebellious with this long list of pregnancy do’s and don’ts. So this pregnancy I have decided to break a few rules.

1. Dyed my hair despite those ominous warnings (it looks the biz and it counters that unattractive heifer feeling).
2. I cross my legs in public places so I don’t loll around spread-eagled like a drunk at a bus stop.
3. I eat what I crave, be it garlic, onion, chilli or cereals drenched in milk despite these things giving me crippling heartburn and indigestion. I ENJOY moaning, groaning and draping myself over furniture seeking relief. It makes me feel dramatic.
4. Never weighed myself and not about to keep an eye on it now, thanks midwife buddy.
5. Eating chicken from even the dingiest take-out and slapping on mayo like it’s not going to be available in 2017.
6. Haven’t done a pelvic floor exercise. Have checked out price of lady-wee-pads and they’re quite reasonable.

Anyone else??

I normally wouldn't eat egg but I've been enjoying a fried egg while pregnant and I fancy peanuts and peanut butter so I've had loads. My 9 year old tells me its actually good to eat peanuts while pregnant. Bless him he's done some research

I have refused to give up runny eggs!! My midwife told me the advise is changing soon so I don't feel guilty!

I really want pate though but have resisted

And I'm staying away from energy drinks even though I would happily murder for some caffeine (don't like coffee)

Did you forget to put 'lighthearted' in the OP?

But seriously, do the pelvic floor exercises.

I personally think this is a funny light hearted post by someone who doesn't take everything seriously, only for self obsessed, opinionated people to decide they have to talk sh*t to people! Makes my blood boil!
