Give me cold, cold cold

[BrightSparkles]

I can't get enough Cold stuff!!!!
Ice, slurpies, icey cold water ANYTHING cold - I just can't get enough!!!

I'm so hot and don't feel like anything is going to cool me down - i go to sleep with cold washers on me, I get up during the night and eat ice and have cold showers
I was like this my last 2 weeks with DD but OMG this is getting beyond ridiculous now!

I had that for a while too - and still do to a point. I crave icy cold water to the point where I drink it so fast that I give myself a sore windpipe!!!

Apparently craving really cold things comes under "pica" and can be a mineral deficiency - but I mentioned this to my ob and he told me that it just means I am hot and need to cool down

haahahaha that sounds familiar! I swear I'd drive into the macca's drive-thru and they'd have a large frozen coke there for me ready to go!

DP wanted to kill me at night when I'd crank the air con!

... LOL i was gonna say come down south and stay in Ballarat for awhile, weather getting cold here already, .. meant to be getting down to 9degrees tonight, .. maybe by just reading this it might make you feel cooler

I've been feeling the heat also... normally i'm a cold frog and feel the slightest breeze... this pregnancy i've been really hot!! walking round in undies and a bra...
my dh loves the cold and hates the heat and even lately he hasn't been wanting the fan on and wants a doona and i want the air con....

i also am a sucker for frozen cokes and zooper dooper iceblocks!!

I have an addiction to icy poles & iced water will drink it by the jug full, room temp water I'm lucky to drink a glass.

I can't sleep without aircon on, we have evap and it near runs 24/7 when I'm home or now that it's down to about 13 degrees at night I can manage with it running on just the fan

[kungfubecca]

we have the aircon on a lot too.

I was craving a lot of cold stuff as well, then my doc told me my iron levels were low,

I read in another thread that craving icy stuff could indicate an iron deficiency.

I have splits in the freezer, Now I'm going to have to eat one

Enjoy today Sunshine, although a bit muggy at least it's a lot cooler in our neck of the wood today.

kungfubecca - could be something in that, I've been on iron tablets past month or so and the icy pole addiction has settled down I was having 2-3 a day but now can go a couple of days.......but now I've thinking about it I want one, just have to wait until I get home from work

My mum was the same when she was pregnant with me, she thought I was going to come out with a beanie on as I would have been so cold from all the ice she ate
