Christmas Treats

[MumToBeMaz]

Hey Mammas to be,

Just curious to know what you are all treating yourself to over Christmas. Looking for some inspiration!

I have got some caffeine-free cola... hahah

I’ve got myself a few bottles of Appletiser which I plan to drink from a champagne glass 😂

Mince pies, Yule log, Cadbury fingers, smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels...

Lots of cheese!!!!!! Maybe gonna have a tiny glass of red with my Xmas dinner 🥰

Oh this all sounds amazing. I will definitely be upgrading to a champagne glass too! haha.

I think my mum is making some caramel shortbread and chocolate cookies. So I will get my hands on them too.

Is smoked Salmon okay to eat? It's my favourite but I thought it wasn't recommended 😕

Last year when pregnant. Hot apple juice with cinnamon. Yum

Will definitely be having a glass of Champagne tomorrow. And continue to eat excessive amounts of chocolate and biscuits 😉 Hoping to bake a Camembert if we can get one.

Maybe a nap too!

@HitsAndMrs you can have it hot!

@MumToBeMaz I have a caffeine free Diet Coke most days. It's my vice

Smoked salmon totally fine - I looked it up this morning!! www.nhs.uk/pregnancy/keeping-well/foods-to-avoid/

I've been mulling non alcoholic wine which works a treat because it's so disgustingly sweet anyway and will have one glass of red with my dinner tomorrow.

@HitsAndMrs yes smoked salmon is all good - just limit the amount of salmon you eat in a week

@RMarieClaire I only saw it for the first time in the shop a couple of days ago. It was in their bargain basket thing and they only had the one. I thought it was just end of line stock they had. Good to know it's out there!

Naps will be on the cards for me too! Im always exhausted at around 1/2pm for some reason.

Got about 6 bottles of Nosecco, tastes as good as the real stuff!

Red grape schloer!

I've been having a bit of coke zero most days anyway as it helps with nausea. Not caffeine free... But a small amount falls well below the daily suggested caffeine limits 🤷‍♀️

A glass of good champagne and a baked camembert

I’ve got some grenadine, I have it with sprite and lots of ice.
It’s this one:

Posh flavoured/aromatic tonic waters, smoked salmon, lots of different cheeses I would never normally buy (normally munch through vast quantities of Gorgonzola), low alcohol wine which is likely to be mulled if it’s as vile as the last one, decaf coffee with various syrups, mince pies.

Bucks Fizz, sushi, unpasteurised cheese and some charcuterie.

I’ll be 10 days overdue & think it’s just about weighing up the risk factors now.

Oh my, @MaverickDanger, 10 days! You're a saint.
My friend was 3 days overdue and was climbing the walls, hahah.

Some schloer from a wine glass just to join in with the rest or sort of haha hopefully some yule log too if I can fit it in after a good ord christmas dinner! 😊

Rose lemonade.

Baileys extra thick cream to slather on mince pies/ eat by the spoonful.

I had some red shloer which tasted just like pink mouscato wine! A blob of baileys cream on my chocolate Christmas pud ( was a bit strong though) and a cheeky baked Camembert mmmmm
