Hi L.,
Congratulations! :) A couple of things that helped me were:
-bananas/apples with peanut butter/soynut butter/almond butter
-trail mix - nuts, dried fruit and a little chocolate :)
-dry cereal like cinnamon Puffins
-almonds/walnuts
-hard boiled eggs (I also love to take the egg whites and put on a toasted english muffin with american cheese)
-omelettes with cheese and lots of veggies (mushrooms, spinach and tomato were my favorite)
-crackers and cheese
-beans (I love white beans with olive oil and salt/pepper)
The key is lots of protein and water packed veggies/fruit. :)
I also found that as difficult as it was on some days that exercise was soooo important for me to maintain a healthy weight gain as well as keep me mentally sane. :)Plus it really helped both my delivery and recovery go speedy. :)
Good luck and enjoy. :)
K.
