What is/was your pregnancy cravings?

[Nikki+2]

Wow, lots of watermelon cravings. It must be a common one, that was mine too. Man did I eat a lot of watermelon. My other craving was green grapes. Every now and then I'd crave a pizza with everything which is not something I would normally eat. I don't like onions or peppers on my pizza and before I was pregnant I hated olives. Pregnancy is a strange thing!

Watermelon and Chesapeake Crabs...

[Judywantsayorki]

I had no cravings w/my first baby.
When I was pregnant with my 2nd baby I craved sprite and only sprite. But I loved certain smells like the smell of leather or the smell of oil--like automotive oil. weird I know.
3rd baby--pumpkin pie ice cream
last baby--I was completely out of my gourd. I needed to wash my face with Noxzema and smell that and then I had to wear a ton of Shower to Shower powder every day. I looked like Casper the Ghost by the time I finished putting the powder on. It was the strangest thing ever. And after she was born, I could care less if I ever used powder or Noxzema.
Pregnancy does strange things sometimes.

Food..lol.

1st time it was ham and cheese heros ..every damn day and hot bread and butter from the spanish bakery

2nd time it was pasta and fresh hot bread and butter from the spanish bakery...lol

3rd and final time it was meat. I am not a huge meat eater but I swear every day I wanted some kind of meat....it was rediculous.

Hmmm...let's see, before I even knew I was prego and in the early days, I craved cherry icees and vinegar and salt chips. Then I craved Taco Bell enchiritos for a few weeks. Then Coco Krispies....and I ate about a box a day for a month. Then what was really wierd, I craved the way things smelled--new carpet, new tires, magic markers, gas! And ice--I would eat ice until it froze my tounge and I couldn't talk.

Me too! I would go in a gas station and walk by the beverage island and stick my hand under and get a handful. Mind you, I knew the lady that worked there and she thought it was funny.

I craved salt and mustard. I was very sick and hospitalized with Aubrey so they said salt was ok for me cause I was dehydrated. I ate hot pretzels with salt and mustard.

LOL on the Taco Bell. My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage but the way I figured out I was pregnant was I craved a regular beef taco from Taco Bell every single day. My mom ate a bean burrito every day when she was pregnant with me and so I bought a test and lo and behold... Normally I am not a Taco Bell fan to say the very least! I didn't crave it when I was pregnant with my daughter so I guess I got it out of my system the go round.

For my first one it was jumbo freezies, my second it was butterfinger chocolate bars and my third it was ice cubes..I was constantly chewing on ice cubes and it wrecked the enamel on my teeth..but I could NOT help myself lol..

Me too! It got so bad that John had to be the only one to go fill up the car with gas. I had to ban myself from gas stations.

My food craving was ice cream sandwiches. I guess it was the calcium.

Mine for my one and only was butterscotch sundaes.
