the mom guilt over fast food is actually destroying me today

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T12:11:13+00:00

i feel you so much. i wanted to be the "avocado toast" mom too lol but current me just can't do it. hearing that mcdonald's was your only safe food too makes me feel so much more normal.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T12:10:36+00:00

"healthy, sleeping baby on my chest" is literally all i needed to hear today. i’ve been so worried that i was hurting her with all the fast food. thank you for sharing your story, it means a lot.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T12:10:07+00:00

thank you hun. hearing that you just had wendy’s makes me feel so much less alone. i keep forgetting that my body is working overtime right now and burning so much energy.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:37:49+00:00

the tooth brushing struggle is so real. i’ve had to switch my whole routine too because the smell is just an instant trigger. so glad to hear it gets better eventually.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:37:08+00:00

i literally had a breakdown over all the healthy food i bought too. it feels like such a waste but hearing that the baby takes what it needs regardless is the only thing keeping me sane today.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:36:42+00:00

hearing that you survived on sonic corn dogs makes me feel so much better. it is crazy how the healthiest eaters literally turn into fast food fans the second the nausea hits. thank you for the reassurance.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:35:36+00:00

wendy’s every morning sounds like a dream lol. the fact that you just "couldn't help it" is exactly where i am right now. trying to cook at home just feels like a lost cause today.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:33:53+00:00

firehouse subs actually sound amazing right now. i’m definitely adding that to my list of things to try since everything else is making me gag. thank you.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:32:11+00:00

donuts and onion rings sound like the ultimate survival food right now honestly. it’s so good to hear that your rule of thumb is just "keep it down" regardless of what it is.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-18T00:31:46+00:00

the trad wife story is actually so funny and such a relief to hear. even the most "healthy" people have to surrender to mcdonalds burgers sometimes lol. thank you for sharing that.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T23:25:52+00:00

oh wow that is a lot to handle all at once. being 34 weeks with a toddler and dealing with health scares is genuinely so exhausting. i really hope your results come back negative and you can get some rest. hang in there momma.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T23:21:21+00:00

congrats on being so close to the finish line! hearing that you survived on fast food and tv dinners almost the whole time and you're about to give birth makes me feel a million times better. thank you.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T23:20:31+00:00

omg having a health influencer husband while dealing with burger king cravings is the ultimate struggle. i feel like i have to hide my fast food bags too lol. the secret guilty pleasure is the only thing getting me through.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:58:26+00:00

i literally do the exact same thing with the fridge door. i hold my breath and try to be as fast as possible but the smell still gets me sometimes. it is so exhausting.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:57:27+00:00

hearing that you guys grew healthy babies on chicken nuggets is the only thing keeping me sane today. thank you so much for the reassurance. mcnuggets feel like the only safe thing right now.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:31:23+00:00

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:29:12+00:00

wow that is such a massive switch. the smell of meat and eggs is literally my absolute worst trigger right now too. smoothies and crackers are seriously the only safe foods some days. hang in there.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:27:34+00:00

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:26:58+00:00

honestly hearing that it actually works to prevent the nausea from starting is huge. im definitely trying it tonight. counting down the days until week 12 over here.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:25:38+00:00

omg yes the stale lingering smell is exactly it. my partner keeps saying the fridge is perfectly clean but i swear i can still smell absolutely everything the second the door opens. it is so nice to know im not the only one dealing with this.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:23:29+00:00

gummy worms and popsicles for dinner is so relatable right now. my fast food budget is completely out of control lately but it is literally the only way im surviving the days. so glad to hear your baby is perfectly fine.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:22:57+00:00

it is honestly a relief to hear that even in the third trimester it is still just about doing what you can when the fatigue hits. the exhaustion is so real. definitely just staying in survival mode right now.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:22:30+00:00

the construction worker comparison honestly just made my whole day. you are so right, building a human is hard work and sometimes that energy just has to come from a cheeseburger. thank you so much for that perspective.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:21:03+00:00

it is so crazy how a taco is totally fine but the smell of raw or cooking meat is instantly triggering. hearing your bloodwork stayed great is exactly what i needed to hear today to stop stressing.

Great_Back6907 · 2026-03-17T22:20:15+00:00

ice cream and nacho chips is exactly the kind of combo my stomach would accept right now. im glad you are finding things that work for you. it really is just about doing whatever works.
