Update: Thank goodness!! Midwife Anabel has told me if I have Lion eggs (eggs with the lion stamp of course, not actual eggs of a Lion!!!) then I can have 'em runny or soft - just not raw! Yippeeee.
Darnit.
I thought getting rid of the grossy squidgy bits was enough - but Nooooooo - overcooked eggs to the extreme! That's all that's on the menu!
Oh My Word.
I'm really peeved now. Overdone eggs. Rubbery grossness. Now my choices are just to hard boil them, omlette them - and there are serious limits to how nice an overcooked omlette can be, even if I am careful ... yeuch, or conceivably an overcooked scrambled egg. How unappetising can one pregnancy get? I can't even have cereal instead as I could do before, at a push. It's definitely off the menu now (except porridge sometimes). So, cheese every morning instead of eggs? Meat? Suck it up and eat the overcooked eggs? It's pointless if I have to eat the egg with bread just to make it palatable ... the carb count would shoot through the roof.
Egg fried noodles for breakfast? Again, the carb count ...
Flat egg pancakes made with sesame seeds, kind of faux Chinesey, filled with bean sprouts, shredded manges tu and perhaps shredded chicken? Hmm, that would work, but whose gonna cook that with a Metformin pill bubbling up a wave of serious nausea every morning? (nothing gets round the fact that it takes half an hour for the Met to kick in and far less time to prepare eggs).
Well, I suppose the filling can be made way ahead of time, as can the egg batter. Am I really going to be that person - who has all that ready? Aaarrgghh I hate that version of myself already!
