In the last 3 pregnancies, I would develop a craving for milk in my 2nd trimester.

This is really weird for me coz I am generally lactose intolerant and develope very congested sinuses whenever I drink milk on a normal day. The congestion in my nose gets even worse in my 1st trimester so I would avoid milk at all cost or I wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

But come the 2nd trimester, I would chug milk by the litres and I'd get NO congestion (now I hope I don't jinx myself for writing this down!) and not only that, I would crave it the whole day!

Then when I hit the 3rd trimester, I would have to get off milk again. Strange huh? My body must need milk and all its fats in the 2nd trimester.

This pregnancy is no different. I am sitting here blogging about  it while a huge cup of ice cold milk is staring at me.

Yep, me too! I am slightly lactose intolerant when not pregnant, but craving milk is actually one of my earliest pregnancy signs. When I begin waking up in the middle of the night craving a huge glass of milk, it's almost more certain than a pregnancy test :o) I crave it all three trimesters, and for a little while post-partum. When pregnant, I fix a big glass to put beside the bed and drink it during the night.
Have you decided on a name? We've been waiting to name a girl Grace for the last three years, so barring any last minute changes, Grace Rose it will be. (All of our girls have the middle name Rose and our boys have the middle name Rivers after Dad.)

We're desperately runnng out of OT girl names that both dh & I like here! Lol! The children keep bugging us for a name but we have as yet no answer from the Lord. So we keep waiting!
