Is there any food you have to have yet?

[sillysideup]

Hi all, been thinking about my pregnancy diet - which so far has been pretty bad. I keep wanting to eat hot chips and cheese sandwiches (not necessarily together - although that is what I had for lunch yesterday!!) I've had the hot chip fetish with both previous pregnancies - but the cheese sandwich one is unexplainable!

Each pregnancy is different (so ive been told lol) so cravings you get with this baby will be slightly or even entirely different. Ive also read you crave what your body needs lol hard to believe when some of us are craving chocolate bars and mcdonalds cheeseburgers.

Im 8 weeks on and nearly everything makes me feel sick! Just the thought of food, im usually stuck with sandwiches and crackers because the thought of greasys and sweets make me wanna puke!

Eat what u want in my oppinion:p except for those particular nastys the doctors tell you to avoid.

a ham and cheese sandwich

I'd puke it but I really want one!

Well get this. I've been feeling ms all day and then suddenly I'm thinking about making curry and rice for tea! (don't think dd 3 or dd 1 would be to impressed with that!)

Steak, lamb chop's...red meat !!!! I cant get enough of it :o ...

I am normally a chicken and fish girl but in lat 2 weeks I think I have had chicken maybe 4 times and fish maybe 1...:eek:

I have turned into a carnivore !!!!:o

I'm not really craving a lot... its more along the lines of what am I so not wanting to eat!!! haha... I'm not bothered by foods... and the foods I want to eat I throw up... like strawberries and yoghurt... :rolleyes:

I craved a curry pie yesterday and it did the job.... but me and food at the moment just aren't the best of friends.... :thumbsdown:

the thought of food right now is yuk. :P im having an off day. 10weeks today. i did however crave a ginger coffee and had one. yes i know naughty me what ever happened to 1 coffee a week yes well the windows open and that idea ran out there, :laughing: I think to night i will have a spagetti toasted sandwich plain and simple and takes 5mins. but who knows.

[Jade's Mum]

lol can't tell you how many times spaghetti on toast has been exchanged over chicken and chips.. too heavy on the stomach:barf:
but spaghetti on toast is sooo good! and like ya said, quick to prepare too:p

BBQ should be banned for the next 7 months. The smell is :barf:!!!

Fruits and ice cream are my favourite right now! I was never big on either. :laughing: Weird.

In the beginning it was Mexican but now it's just greasy food in general... :o

[TyBean]

Ok well every morning I have to have a 35% tropical juice popper... and a row of white chocolate or I am a write off for the day!!!

Not a healthy breakfast... but it is what I need!!! :o

Sillysideup - I agree with banning the BBQ!!! We had a get together with neighbours last night for a barbie and I had a cheese and salad sandwich! The thought of red meat is really sickening at the moment. I'm not a big meat eater at the best of times, but definetely worse when I'm pregnant.

LilTandMe - I just had a snack size time out and twix bar with coffee for breakfast !

In general though I have been eating peaches in juice like they're going out of style - can get through a 1kg tub in a day!
