So far today I have eaten almost half of my calories for breakfast. I would feel guilty if my uterus weren't trying to escape my lower body in a fashion even Ridley Scott would be frightened of. Usually, I make eggs for my son and I, maybe some toast or an English muffin if I'm running late getting him to daycare. Today I made eggs, and pancakes with fresh strawberries and Nutella. No shame.
I am only a breakfast girl for a few days of the month, It helps my cramps hurt less to have something in my stomach all morning/afternoon.
Do any other ladies change up their eating habits during their special delicate time? Do any of you try and increase your iron intake for these few days?
