That is so funny...and so true! :)I am somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd trimester stages. I am starting to feel the need to slow down in how much I eat or it makes me miserable!

This is hilarious! Boy it brings back memories. I had an appetite that was out of control my second trimester. I've never eaten so many steaks!
