Husband here needing advice and tips
Hello all,
My wife and I are expecting our first child at the end of July and this pregnancy has already been tough on her. For the first 15 weeks or so she could hardly keep food down and was miserable. Around 16 weeks the nausea finally started to fade and she was able to eat her favorites again. Her appetite was back and life was good.
Then yesterday at 26 weeks she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. She has been devastated and can’t stop crying. Her main cravings are sweets and she is having a hard time with the idea that she can’t have them for another 2-3 months.
At our house I am the main cook, it is my favorite hobby and I love making delicious meals and desserts for us. I am doing my best to research recipes and ideas that will fit with her recommended carb levels but am having trouble finding anything she can get excited about.
Does anyone have any recipes or ideas for things that I can cook that may help her feel better and adjust to this new normal (especially sweet treats or desserts)?
Thanks in advance!
