Cravings!

[Laine]

I know its early days for us but was just curious who was getting cravings yet?

Last night I HAD to have Milo. I had 2 glasses of it in a row. It wasnt so much the Milo I wanted but the milk. Also craving a lot of junk food, prob not a good thing! KFC crispy strips and McChicken burgers, DEVINE!!!

Oh I have gone totally off sausage rolls now which is probably a good thing :D

[our little treasures]

Hot rods - kfc but I have managed to only have them once. Bacon which I always crave... My cravings usually end about 8wks (morning sickness) and come back at around 18 wks..

[lavenderpegasus]

I'm actually quite the opposite. I don't want anything. I used to keep a food diary so that is what I'm eating from, because I have no desire to eat. I fell full all the time...

im usually chocolate lover, but have found im not really into it now! i actually had craving for apples today so went and got some! that was weird! the other day i thought all i could stomach was toast, and strawberry jam. So i drag hub to the store, but when i was in the jam aisle had already changed my mind, didnt feel like that at all! Not really being a big meat eater, however at the shop today i bought steak! craved meat, so if i dont change my mind by dinner i guess thats what i feel like! :laughing:

So far no cravings for this pregnancy, oh except eggs, i had 2 servings of scrambled eggs yesterday morning!

With DD it was fruit loops, chocolate & ice cubes.

With DS it was boost juice, fruit and ice cubes.

I guess we will have to wait and see, waiting for the ice cube craving to kick in again, lol!

hi all, i'm not craving anything i just know what i don't want, i can have it on my fork and i just can't seem to eat it and it seem to be things i used to love to eat.
:tree: :xmas: :tree: :xmas:

[Niki]

lettuce and water so far lol, so different from my 1st pregnancy all i wanted then was chocolate lol

[mumma_jessy]

OK it's officially here, the milk craving! I had it with both my other pregnancies too, maybe my body craves the extra calcium when i'm pregnant?

They say that the food you crave is mostly because your body is telling you it needs more of a vitamin, ie calcium, iron, etc etc...

i had my first craving today - well i was dreaming it last night actually. And then i have been wanting it alll day today.

All i wanted was tinned corn. So when i got home from work i had to open a tin that i hae had in the cupboard for god knows how long.
And i was muching away for aboutt 5 or more fork fulls, and ewwwwwww yuk...... it started to stink.
I couldnt stand the smell of the juice, so i quickly tipped it into a container and shoved it in the fridge.

So i dont think ill be craving it again for a while.....

[JorBai]

Ewwww TJ your hilarious darl, tinned corn!!!!!

The mind plays funny tricks doesnt it, you think you want it, you eat it and you throw it all back up!!!!

I remember on morning with Bailey I craved Weetbix and dorito chips. Ate them then went and had a shower and the weetbix dorito mix covered the entire place...YUK i know!!!!

Tonight I am craving Big M chocolate milk!!! DH has gone to get me some! :D

[porridge]

I have been craving honey (straight from the honey comb)... something I have never had before!! lol

so I bought myself a slab of it... yuuuuumm

[DramaQueen]

I want pineapple juice, lots and lots of it.

Is that bad??????? (probably knowing my luck :rolleyes: )

[Laine]

Pineapple Juice is good for the bubs! Drink lots!! I have gone off it :(

[kej]

That's funny, because I've been craving milo, milkshakes and choc milk for the last week, and I don't usually drink milk. I thought maybe it was just a phase, but i think it's a craving! How exciting!!!

[jkate]

I just had too many monte carlo biscuits, and now I feel :barf:. Shouldn't have open the packet :laughing:

Plus I can't work out if I am hot or cold - stupid hormones/weather :banghead:

[mumma_jessy]

Still on the chocolate milk shakes!

Todays craving is... sausages in bread!

GUESS WHAT WE ARE HAING FOR DINNER TONIGHT:D

[TJ]

Pineapple and orange juice all the way!!!

YYYUUUUUUMMMMMOOOOOO!!

[jkate]

Just went to the shops to get a couple of things for DH birthday tomorrow: Well I did buy the things for his dinner and cake etc but I also got a few things for myself, including my special coffee, sticky date pudding (which is also the birthday cake - lucky he likes it :p) custard, a small bottle of coke and some yummy Cheese biscuits...they will be gone my tonight!! :laughing:(the cheese biscuits that is;))

Oh dear, that tummy will be coming :D

[shorty_851]

Pickles for me.

My SIL's friend acctaully craved the tatse of car oil.

[mumma_jessy]

Yea, a few people crave things that shouldn't really be eaten, they call it pica.

I actually had a stage when i was pregnant with DS that I like chewing on a bath sponge (I was also getting a wisdom tooth) but that was pretty weird!! To this day i still get paid out about it, but i just couldn't help myself.

soem women crave the smell of petrol or to eat dirt, ashes, clay, chalk, ice, laundry starch, baking soda, soap, toothpaste, paint chips, plaster, wax, hair, coffee grounds, and even cigarette butts. Ewwwww

[Chicco25]

My cravings are weird. I wanted prawns the other night so I made a great garlic and chill prawns - cost me $40 a kilo :eek: , and I only manged to eat 4 before I couldn't stand the smell or the taste. Went straight in the bin, what a waste!

Today I craved eggs benedict so I just had that for lunch. Guarantee I won't stand to have them now,lol

All I want to eat is vegimite toast.....but if it burns or even the smell of crumbs buring....I'l :barf:

Last pregnancy I craved anything sweet. THis time with my morning sickness all I want is toast and water and a little bit of lemonade

[Laine]

Dagnabbit! I want chips! Nice hot chips, like ones u get from KFC or Red Rooster, oh that lovely lovely salt... They are pretty much the ONLY thing I feel like eating and I cant get any now coz im at work :no:

2 hrs I leave.. I shall have to get some :yes:

[mumma_jessy]

I had that craving the other day too Lanie! I went and got some and was very disapointed cause they were not salty enough, so make sure you ask for extra chiken salt!

Today i want peaches, i have had 2 in the last 5 minutes, an expensive habbit!

[DramaQueen]

I will probably have to take out a personal loan cause all I want to eat is bananas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:eek:

I bought a kilo today ($8.99 :shame: ) and I have already eaten 3/4 of them!!!:o

[Laine]

lol I satisfied my craving thank goodness, and luckily these ones were salty enough, I almost stole DF's serving haha.. sooo nice!

I got 3 bananas the other day because I felt like them, cost me $11 and I didnt eat any of them.. went off em just as quick :thumbsdown:
