what was your weirdest craving whilst pregnant?
was thinking about banana cake and bbq sauce... :o: but don't really think it's a good idea... lol
its not crazy as in OMG I wouldn't eat that, but just weird. I can't get enough of DS kraft cheese sticks....I normally wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole!!! And the other night whilst waiting at the pizza shop I made DH go 2 shops up & get me a chicko roll LOL....and I loved it!!!
I am loving anchovies straight out of the jar at moment.. (and I normally can't stand them, smell or taste)..
I've been craving ice cream and sweet things, which is weird for me because I usually go for the savory/salty things.
I couldn't be bothered going to the shop one night so I mixed cold condensed milk with a few spoons of milo. DP took a taste and nearly retched!
I seriously considered eating LUX soap one time whilst pregnant with DD#3....the smell was divine, why not eat it , i thought...i didnt...but i did want too....:lol:
Dirt, clay and sand. I was sooooo tempted and came incredibly close to giving in.
In my first trimester I craved really acidic foods, like lemons and vinegar. I would suck the juice out of whole lemons and then eat them. It was so bad once that I went down to a cafe near where I worked and asked them for one of the lemons that they had in the bowl on display for decorative purposes. They gave it to me, thought it was strange and then told them I was pregnant and craving lemons. They still thought it was strange, but slightly less strange than before they knew I was pregnant.
I used to also drown my hot chips in vinegar. I always like vinegar, but I would drown them so much they went soggy and there was always a pool of vinegar left afterwards, which I would drink up. There were times where I would also take a swig out of the vinegar bottle.
Then during second trimester I craved Kiwi fruit. If it was a bit tart then it was better too.
During 3rd trimester it was chocolate covered strawberries, or just strawberries on their own. By that time I couldn't stand vinegar or other acidic foods as they gave me heartburn.
A friend of mine would eat raw flour straight outta the packet when she was pregnant - her DH would tell her off, he said it couldn't be healthy!
When I was pregnant with DS2 I craved cheese doritos with vanilla ice cream on them. I also craved the smell of sunscreen which was odd.
This pregnancy one of my biggest cravings was mashed avocado on hot chips... and nutri grain on ice cream.
Mum used to eat raw potatoes when she was pregnant with me!
I've been craving chicken nuggets, which really isn't that weird. Thought I suppose it is for me because I normally wouldn't eat them.
Ok i dont feel so weird anymore hahahaha
my cravings are so strong i cant sleep i have to get up and eat them. Its really quite bad. Fanta has to be the worst one though i hate fanta normally and now i cant get enough.
I have drank soooo much orange juice this pregnancy I'm sure he's going to come out orange!! It has to be the Daily Juice pulp free one though.
Have also had a thing for tomato sandwiches & eat DHs tomato off his plate when we're out for a meal.
These are only weird to me because I absolutely HATE oranges & tomatos normally.
The other thing that I craved was Pepsi. It couldn't be coke which is strange because I have always been a coke drinker. It had to be Pepsi. I also craved Sunkissed and KFC more than I normally do.
Which DS I craved anything acidic and milo. This pregnancy has been fresh fresh fresh bread with butter and brown sugar on top!! YUMMM!!! Its even tastier with that Tigger bread you can get from Coles. Lol.
lauren - you really made me laugh out loud with your OP.
GINGER BREAD HOUSE??? HILARIOUS!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHA
i looked for 2 hours for one no where had them :(
i ended up making some gingerbread myself
gosh im awful
today was pineapple real bad.
God one time I just wanted broccolli so badly, I cooked up a massive amount of it and ate a heap in the evening. Then put the rest in the fridge and when I woke up the next morning and went looking for food thought.... MMMMM brocolli and had it for breakfast, cold.
I also ate a hole jar of peanut butter in about two days.....
In my 1st trimester I craved, chips, chicken nuggets, cheese and more cheese!
Now I'm craving all sorts of stuff - recently it has been ham salad sandwiches, ice lollies, apples and oranges. I've totally gone off McDonalds, which is weird coz I could have one anytime. Thats good though coz I don't really want to be craving fast food.
Can't wait to see whats next...... :p
I'm craving orange juice at the moment and I just ate some capers right out of the jar.
I'm totally off eggs which is killing me as I eat eggs every day. I can't even think about them right now, even typing that sentence almost made me retch.
Sue x
My new one now is dumplings in chilli oil! Dad was in town the other night so I dragged him off to my favourite dumpling place for some :lol:
Also Vietnamese spring rolls from a great place in Erindale (Canberra), and my Mum's cornish pasties, but she lives in Canberra so I haven't managed to satisfy that craving yet :doh: I'll get both in one hit next time I go see her!
Mine has been any of the dark red fruits like berries...
I normally HATE pizza but recently at our local pizza shop I noticed on their dessert menu they had fresh berries with ice-cream or cream so when the boys got their usual spagetti bol pizza with sour cream drizzeled ontop (which I started them on early in my pregnancy) I asked for a berry pizza with sweatened cream as the base and ice-cream on top after it was cooked...
Other than that, It's been coffee using ice-cream instead of milk & sugar... I usually hate coffee and only drink tea.
I guess my little girl is going to be quite a "sweetie" heehee.. (i no, that was a bad one! :redface: )
Oh,oh and for my DS, I used to put butter, vegimite and a cheese single on a peice of bread (well 6 of them) roll them up with a skewer holding it together then put them in the oven to toast.. when ready, I'd dip them heavily in sour cream!! YUM!
Mine was gerkins and cottage cheese, I would just dip the gerkin right into the cottage cheese. With both pregnancies I craed hamburgers, it was just about all i lived on, and couldnt drive past a burger joint without making DH stop for one.
With my last pg it was peanut paste and cheese on a sandwich, a very weird one.
My mum had toothpaste as a craving, she said she use to eat it straight from the tube.
LOL you girls are funny!!!
With DS i used to take a jar of olives to work as my lunch!!! i couldnt go to the fridge without grabbing a handfull of olives!!! and i also craved mcchicken burgers i guess its not that strange..
With DD I had a caramel sundae from maccas EVERY night... and i REALLY REALLY loved the smell of rubber (like new tyres, school shoes etc..) at work i used to stand there and sniff the shoes.. everyone thought i was crazy!
all i want to get is a cheeseburger, take off the top, cover in twisties, put the top back on, then eat the burger!! just talking about it is making my mouth water lmao!!! mmmmmm
In the first trimester, I also craved acidic things....
Used to drink a lemon crush from BOOST juice every day...
Now it is anything freezing cold, slurpee or granita drink :p
Or even a sunny boy- Yum Yum!!!
Ice load and loads of ice, i lost heaps of weight cuz all i wanted was ice lol
With my DD I wanted Pickled cucumbers and with DS it was mussels. Unfortunately, I couldn't eat them until I'd had him...so i compensated with Chocolate. Not the same, but it made me feel better!
With DS1 I craved beetroot - I had to have it in every sandwich I made, and would eat it straight out of the jar!!
With this one I've been right off sweet or creamy stuff - couldn't eat sweet desserts, chocolate, milkshakes etc would make me wanna puke. Its been savoury stuff since the beginning - avocado, tomato & cheese warmed on toast or crackers is a regular fave.

with DD the first REAL as in cry when you dont have it and cry when you get it because it is just so beautiful was....
KFC chicken fillet burgets. :redface: prior to having DD i *may* have eaten KFC like, 3-4 times in my entire life. but it was a 2am moment where i NEEDED it.
after that i tamed down a bit and would crave 2 weetbix crushed with milk and loads of sugar and half a pack of wheatgerm on top. breakfast lunch and dinner.
OMG the last week or so thats been me too.:
I craved orange juice for awhile (and still do) but i cant eat or drink oranges, or any type of juice for that matter coz it gives me heartburn :cry:
i crave alot of sweet foods, which is pretty normal for me anyway lol.
previously has been jelly and tinned fruits with marshmallow and custard on top and i think this time round will be same, i have been eating 2 pkts of jelly in one go and thats after tea, ran out of custard and tinned fruit and no marshmallows but im thinking it will be same as i know i want them!!!!
Ive been having all these girl vibes until today when i ate 3 lemons, i sat there ate the skin and all! geez
Pickles and fries with honey mustard and ketchup. Its terrible cz I work in fast food so I have access to em lol
