craving terrible things

[dantri]

EVERYONE, preggers or not, are allowed hot chips, with salt, AND hosed down in vinegar (for me anyhow) just once in a while

Can't help with your cravings except to say, hang in there and as others have said, try alternatives.

As for unusual cravings, a friend of mine craved cement throughout most of her pregnancy. Yep, CEMENT! We couldn't find an alternative so she ended up sucking on a small block of cement! Plus we thought her body might be craving calcium? Only thing we could think of that might be "in" cement that her body would need. So she upped her calcium intake as well. She said it wasn't exactly what she wanted (she wanted to EAT the cement) but it did the trick. It was SO weird and she was so embarrassed by the whole thing.

LOL at Leasha and the soap not tasting as good as it smells. I can imagine so...

LOL yep a month or two ago i got hot chips drowned in vinegar on my lunch break, they were so soaked that the bottom fell out of the chip box as i walked back to work and about 10 seagulls swooped in and ate them all
funniest bit is i went back to the shop and told them 'i dunno why, the box just collapsed' and got a replacement...the paper box this time wrapped in a plastic bag ....pmsl

I say there is nothing wrong with some good hot chips with salt or anything like that, as long as we make up for it with a nice healthy meal. All things in moderation hey.

I wish I was craving food all I cravel is Cigarettes I quiet well over 12 months ago and its all I think about. The smell makes me feel sick when I walk past someone smoking but just the thought of it drives me a little nutts I even dream about smoking all the time. Mind you I have not given into this craving at all and wouldnt but its just weird! Have been eating too much Choclate instead oh and microwave popcorn

In my first pregnancy I just craved deep food, kfc, maccas, hot chips, pies, sausage rolls. I put on 35kgs.

This pregnancy I have been craving tomatoes, tomatoes and more tomatoes, cheese tomatoes & lettuce sandwiches, and ice cream but I only have little every two weeks at the most. This time I have lost 4kgs so far.
