Well it's been chocolate milkshakes & hot chips for me so far. When I was pg with DS I went off steamed vegies for a while - was still ok with stir fires, curries etc but a bit of a worry when your a vego....Door stops, playdoh, machine ice? man - hope I don't get any of these crazya** cravings ;)
I can't eat anything at the moment besides fatty crap food :(
For a while I drank at least 2 of those hot chocolate drinks that come in the sachets (can't remember thier names sorry) every day - sometimes 3 or 4 or more. I refused to believe that it was a craving when DH bought it up and it was only in retrospect that I thought that maybe it was a bit OTT and that I have never drunk them since then.
I remembered a strange craving I had when I was pregnant with Harrison... it wasn't for food though... it was for the smell of sunscreen!!! I would get the sunscreen out and have a sniff... I loved it!!!
i am really bad with my cravings, i have been craving cheeseburgers, frozen coke, cinnamon donuts, wizz fizz and ovultenies... i think its gonna be a junk loving baby hehe
wrt the ice, playdoh and doorstops, there is a condition called Pica:
apparently it can be caused by mineral deficiencies?:
Some women want to eat strange things in pregnancy that are not food. This is a condition called pica. Pregnant women with pica may crave substances such as chalk and clay
Just wondered what others crave while preg.
Mine at the moment is the chocolate scones from Bakers' Delight...mmmm delish
I have had all sorts of weird things I like eating, not cravings in the sense that 'i MUST eat that now' but weird phases of foods I have liked - pineapple, orange mineral water, mt franklin water, finger buns, pikelets, hot chips, weet bix, milk, milk and more milk, green apples... it is bizarre isnt it?? i like really simple foods more that usual, i am usually a bit of a foodie and do lots of cooking, now if it was left to me alone i would live off cereal!
mine was lemon slice form gloria jeans! they knew me so much they would say 'OH YOUR BACK AGAIN' :cryinglaugh:so i would drive to other gloria jeans shops not far away and mix it up that way!!:D

Give me chocolate milkshakes and Doritos with home made french onion dip... Poor DH had to go to the shops at 9:45pm last night for some sour cream and chippies... :D Earlier on was bananas... I couldn't get enough of them!!! Ooh ooh... and pizza shapes... Where's the cravings for healthy food??
I know!! I cant believe how much JUNK I have wanted since being preg.
SHAPES yummo. Cant get enough oranges atm and pickled onions. Cant stand Doritos .. yuk - hubby makes nachos and sends me running to the toilets. I cant get past a good cup of tea either.
potato chips and chocolate!
Although, I think I'm always craving chocolate, and using pregnancy as an excuse now!
Im craving Kraft Cheddar cheese, milk and lots of chocolate. im a chocoholic tho, but being preg makes it worse, or better? :lol:
With DD it was Lettuce, passionfruit, mangoies, strawberries and smarties!!
This time its been custard tarts, choc eclairs, pineapple and passionfruit!
Burger RAings, Toobs and Doner Kebabs with chilli sauce!
Just going to combine this with our cravings thread....
I hardly never eat macca's, but lately its all i can think about!!! Mmm-cheeseburgers :D
AND meat pies, but the nice ones from pie face!
