My new craving is peppermint freddo frogs!!!! Why oh why cant I crave something like carrots or bananas or crackers or at least something a bit more healthy - LOL
It's ok Jen.
I'm always craving chocolatey things. Except for today, when I really wanted jelly babies or gummi bears, or snakes. Just anything gummi/jelly and fruity. I just got back from the shop and couldn't restrain myself, ended up getting a pack of Starburst sour gummi rings. Mmmmm, gummi.
The other day I totally wanted anything with a sweet artificial llime flavour. Icypole, cordial, lollies, I wasn't fussed. Got home and had an icypole, and the next day bought lime cordial. I guess I'm lucky / unlucky to have a mini supermarket up the road that's open till 8pm. The upside is I can almost always get what I'm craving. The downside is I spend too much on chocolate. And because they don't have a huge range, if I've given in to myself and gone to get something and they don't have it, then I have to do the 20-30min walk to the Coles open till midnight, because once I tell myself I can have something, I have to get, or I drive myself nuts!
Hmm you are gonna die when you hear this - but I just need to go out the back gate and 1 minute up the path and I am at Coles!!!! Can be good and bad - mainly BAD!!!
Anyway off to get some of those yummy yummy frogs
Love Jen
My new craving is........WEETBIX!! Yes...totally bizarre! LOL
Well it's not weetbix as such, but I bought the Sanitarium brand called 'Lite Bix' and have a couple with some milk and a teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on top!! I've already had weetbix for breakfast and for lunch and I simply MUST eat them again this instant!! ROFLMAO
Off to feed the baby weetbix.................

LMAO Tootie. Well I hope the weetbix is filling you up and quenching your starvation a bit !!
I am really boring during pregnancies with no great craving for anything. There was a week when pregnant with Kameron that i wanted apples and oranges but that was it.
OMG this is terrible...I went and had my third fix of weetbix and then felt fine, only to come back in here, see my own post again and feel like them AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hehe. Well after typing about grapes, I had to go get some from the fridge, and will again now too. Bet I really want them again in like half an hour after I finish them off.
I hate to mention it, but I heard something about Kahlua slices in 3rd trimester this week, and have been craving them since!! I'm holding back though!
Yeah I've seen those Kahlua slices in the shops but I can honestly say they don't appeal to me - probably a good thing! Wish I could say the same about Cadbury Peppermint chocolate!!!! Oooooh....to die for!!!!
Do you ever find yourself mysteriously in a certain section of the supermarket and wonder how on earth you got there, and then realise that you've been standing there looking at a certain thing and thinking about it for 5 minutes or something? LOL I've found myself doing this on a few occasions - I swear the baby is telling me it needs something specific and all of a sudden I find myself in that section of the shopping isle! E.g. I haven't eaten yoghurt in quite a while, but the other day I found myself perusing all the different types of yoghurt at the supermarket and I was just putting some in the shopping basket when I realised what I was doing IYKWIM!! I must saying I'm enjoying the yoghurt though! LOL
I think I'm going to have to stop talking about food. Or smelling food, or seeing it. I'm gettting smpathetic cravings: what ever anyone else has or talks about I want. It was really bad when my housemate came home with pizza, and DP and I were just having homemade steak sandwiches, which weren't ready for another hour!
I had been going through heaps of yohgurt, but stopped when dairy started making me nauseous. Now that I can eat dairy again, I've been thinking I should get some next time I do a proper shop. And now I really want some. Roll on payday!
Yeah I know what you mean Susan!!! There have been a couple of things I have read about other people craving and then not long after I have found myself craving similar things LOL, e.g. orange things (orange juice, orange icy poles) and then peppermint chocolate (I think it might have been Jen who said she couldn't stay away from Peppermint Freddos LOL).
I was actually up eating yoghurt at 5 am this morning too LOL and have just had yet ANOTHER feast of the delicious Lite Bix.
It's strange, maybe because I just had breakfast and still feel full from my milo, but I didn''t immediate cravings for any of that. Maybe it's an afternoon/night thing?
Yeah I'm not sure about that! I can honestly say I don't have the urge for peppermint chocolate right now....not craving anything right at this moment as I'm still feel from the Lite Bix feast LOL!!!
In terms of finding myself wanting things other people have mentioned, it seems to happen within a matter of days afterwards! I don't know if it's just a coincidence or not really!
OMG I have all the things here to make choc chip bikkies too and was going to do that last week but didn't get around to it!!! I'll simply HAVE to do that now!!!
