Hi all,

Was just wondering if any of you had started craving anything yet and if so what?
At the mo i've got a small thing for fresh pineapple but i wouldn't call it a craving yet.....

When i had my first who's now 11 my craving then was.... mashed bananas, mixed with icecream on hot buttered toast!!! MMMMMM! Happy

well i have had what they call pica. where you crave things like coal etc. They say its lack of iron that causes this. i have been wanting chalk though. my iron levels are fine though.

other than that i don't crave anything else. but when i get an idea of something in my head it wont go til i have had it so i have to have it.

Although i am eating lots of panini's just coz of the melted cheese.

xxxx

I don't have any cravings as such but I do get moments where I suddenly fancy something and it'll bug me until I have it lol That is one thing that has been the same for each of my pregnancies!

No cravings as such although I am eating sweets which I don't normally. My appetite is huge but I think thats just piggy syndrome as usually I watch what i eat but indulge when preg.

I don't know if would call it a craving, but I only want to eat salad and pickles at the moment, can't stand the thought of hot food at the moment.
Oh well at least salad is healthy!!

Eew! Babyfox...olives?! I hate them but wouldn't it be funny if I tried one now & found I loved them?! lol!
I don't have any cravings apart from the fact I am hungry all the time & just crave all food all of the time!
In my last pregnancy I didn't have cravings as such, I would just eat something then find I had to have it constantly, which had with corn on the cob, baked potatoes, ice cubes, ice lollies & apples - I previously didn't eat many apples as they used to give me 'gut rot' but in pregnancy I couldn't get enough, which is a good thing! I have found I don't want apples this time around but love pears (the short & fat variety) & pineapple chunks.
I always go off tea for the first 12 weeks & last time I couldn't stand raw meat, I couldn't even walk past the meat aisle in the supermarket!
I was loving pickled onions on a buffet at a party I went to on Sunday, I had gone off them for a few months but think I will go and buy some today...ummmm, I craving them now!

Well I can't seem to get enough of starbursts and normally I don't eat sweets. I bought a pack of 4 last thursday and about 3 hours later I'd eaten them all lol

I also seem to be thinking about meat a lot which I'm a bit concerned about as I'm vegan lol

I had loads of Fruit Pastel ice lollies (& Tesco's own version of them too) during my last pregnancy, my MIL kept some at her house for me too but this time I'm limiting my ice consumption as it did my teeth no could & they are quite sensitive now so be warned! lol! It's lovely crushing ice in your teeth though if you're prepared for the consequences!

Ha Ha.... that actually happened when my son was born.. he was a bit blue but wasnt from the ice!! I joked that it was though and my partner at the time wasnt amused!! (was the cord and the pethidine that they gave me too late that made him blue but he was ok after a few mins)
