I figured if I ate anything in the morning it would stop me from throwing up. I was eating a bowl of oatmeal and felt that pit in my stomach, then in my throat. I ran to the kitchen and ate crackers and sipped water preventing ne from getting sick. Maybe you can try crackers then a bowl or 2 of cereal. But yes I too am loving cereal. I'll also have it as a snack before bed if I get hungry. I gained so much weight with my 2nd baby. With this one I am 18 weeks but look much more further along. I'm scared of gaining too much too. Thankfully I started out very small but you wouldn't really know it looking at me now. I hate how fatigue, sore and nauseous I am, last thing I want to worry about is weight but it is important.

I'm 28 weeks I have been eating cereal since the beginning of the pregnancy for a snack before bed. I think its a much healthier snack than most other things. I like the flakes with strawberries in are my favorite. Or honey bunches. Yummy.

I did that with my 1st pregnancy and gained so much weight (50 lbs) at the end of pregnancy. My doctor put me on diet at around 6 months cuz I was gaining 10 lbs a month n said if I kept it up I would be bed written cuz I wouldn't be able to walk. It also made the delivery very difficult cuz my body was unhealthy. For my 2nd pregnancy I ate a lot healthier n exercised n only gain 19 lbs. The delivery was much easier n my recovery  way faster. I'm pregnant now with my 3rd (16 weeks). Still eating healthy n exercising I have gained 5 lbs n just have a small ball in my lower abdomen. Doctor says baby is very healthy and he's a normal size. So I recommend to take care of ur body cuz it will determine how difficult ur delivery n recovery will be. Pregnancy will give u craving but don't let them get out of control but using the I'm pregnant excuse.

In the beginning of my pregnancies the only rhing that would settle my stomach was cereal. Even now when i want a snack, i get cereal. As long as they're not sugary cereals & are healthy, you should be ok.
