Cravings...

[PinkAngel]

Does anyone else have cravings whether or not they may be pregnancy related?

I am desperate for fish & chips from the local take away which is a bummer as I have heard that the mercury levels in flake means it's bad for us...

...maybe I want it more because I know I can't (shouldn't?) have it! :hair:

Hope you are all having a good day! :flowerz:

when I was pregnant with Lillie my craving was ICE ( frozen water, not drugs LOL) and I still cant kick the habit. I have about 10 glasses of crushed ice a day !!!

So it's only me wanting things from the naughty list? :crying: LOL

Not sure but for me I can't stand anything fatty or too sweet.
I am craving vegees when I eat. Though I really don't feel like eating at all.

[waahoo]

I normally have no sweet tooth at all - could take or leave chocolates and desserts. Now I am all about the sweets! (Yeah, I'm not going to gain weight at all :rolleyes:) I'm also drinking more orange juice but I think that's also a bit about the sweetness.

I always have crazy cravings but that isnt what i am here for today:)

My midwife gave me lots of onfo on this exact subject (fish i mean lol) the info says that during pregnacy

2-3 serves a week of any fish not listed below
1 serve per week of Orange Roughy (deep sea perch) or catfish and no other fish that week
1 serve per fortnight of shark (Flake) or Billfish (swardfish/Broadbill, and Marlin) and no other fish that fortnightI hope that helps someone out. It is in a pamflet written by Food Standards Australia New Zealand.

So moderation is the key i think:)

Yummy fish.... guess what i am having for lunch... lol

I'm one of the ones craving naughty stuff! Although I have been eating more oranges too! I have also found that apples having been good when I'm feeling queasy.

But I have REALLY been craving spicy foods - especially curry! YUM!

[mixy]

On wednesday morning someone mentioned Indian, so of course I got Butter Chicken, Rice & Cheese Naan in my head until Thursday night. My DH took me to the new Indian restaurant in town for Valentines Day (:kiss:to DH). the craving is now gone! It really hit the spot though, I almost had a big "O" in the restaurant with the first bite of cheese naan :laughing: (sorry if I offended anyone, but it was seriously THAT GOOD)

1 serve per fortnight of shark (Flake) or Billfish (swardfish/Broadbill, and Marlin) and no other fish that fortnight[/LIST]

It has to be icecream and two-fruits for me ... guess what I just had for lunch :o And also wanting baked pumpkin ... already cut up for my dinner :D

Craving cous cous today

[KatieLou]

Mexican foods - particularly nachos or just corn chips dipped in salsa.

And for a self confessed chocoholic and icecream addict, I haven't wanted either for weeks - just not at all interested.:confused:

I had fish & chips (flake) last week and am now waiting the fortnight before eating any other fish. Gee it was good.

PinkAngel and KatieLou glad i could be of some help:)

I was craving a choccy milkshake! Im not normally a milkshake person. I brought all the stuff and made it at home as we are not allowed to have softserve.
I have really gone off other sweet stuff though. I used to love lollies and chocolate but they make me feel sick now! Im into eating fruit more. Hopefully I loose a bit of weight!:laughing:

[dragon5800]

due end of sept and been craving chicken nuggets from mac's

[Manz]

I have a MAJOR hanging for Chicken!!! And also fresh cooked veges,.... oh my goodness - never wanted healthy food so so bad before!!

Usually I am really really obsessed with eating chips like, doritos, and anything like that, but I now cant stomach it! So bizarre!
