Food Cravings: I’ve had several people ask me if I’ve had any strange food cravings.

It took a while for it to occur to me that this food pairing might be a little strange.<\/p>\n
We went to the doctor last Monday and they gave us a couple books and a bag full of brochures, sent us on our merry way and told us to come back at the end of the month. I really thought they would have checked me out at that point, but aside from checking my blood pressure, they just asked a lot of questions about my health history. It was a little frustrating, but I guess it’s normal operating procedure to do the first real checkup at week 8 or later.<\/p>\n
