Cravings!

[whalemama17]

Though this might be fun to share: feel free to add yours.
Mine so far-
-Cans and cans of spicy V8 juice
-Pickles! Entire jars of homemade pickles
-Anything dairy

pickles (so cliche- but really... I have craved them even before I got pg!) and veggie burger meals from our local restaurant :

Well, like my last pregnancy, I have no cravings. I don't really find anything that appetizing but I am so hungry so I eat. I'm generally not satisfied and then the thought of what I ate makes me a little sick to my stomach.

I did crave pickles and ice cream during my last pregnancy and DH thought it was beyond funny that I was living up to the stereotype. Right now, the thought of those two things makes me feel icky.

I haven't really had any cravings yet, last time it was chocolate milk and super spicy food, with HMB it was pizza of any kind. With KAB it was strawberry ice cream, but the pregnancy is still new and young, so I fully expect it to pick up soon.

[NullSet]

No cravings for me either!

no cravings here yet either although i ate a vietnamese sandwich w/ tofu yesterday and i could easily see that being my first-tri go-to food. : last time subway veggie sandwiches were one of the only things i could stomach in the first tri.

i didn't have any real cravings all the way through with wren although i did enjoy fruit more than usual and wanted to eat it lots. the only sort-of craving was that when i was 4w pregnant last time i ate like a billion tacos and a lot of tzitziki -- but that was gone by 5w when m/s kicked in. i got sick this time before i even knew i was pregnant so it looks like no early cravings at all for me!

So far the only thing I've noticed is a craving for salty and/or very flavourful foods. We eat a reduced salt diet because of DHs kidney function and for the last week I've been wanting salty stuff. I made French onion soup on the weekend which satisfies both salty and strong flavoured. Yum!

I wouldnt call it cravings just yet for me. Although I am quiet partial to pickels and sweets right now.

[jecombs]

No cravings for me yet. Right now I'm just focusing on food that doesn't make me feel ill.

Last time with DD I really craved orange food like carrots, sweet potato, and especially butternut squash! It sounds really healthy, but of course I liked all of it with plenty of butter and salt and pepper.

[FiberLover]

I was definitely craving protein the other day...chicken specifically.

But, I've kind of been craving that this whole time I've been bfing, so not sure which part is making me crave what!

[samstress]

my cravings -- anything salty. my aversions -- everything else.

[jcsquared]

definitely salty foods here, too! and anything with cheese - organic gluten-free pizza from pizza fusion is the best and i wish i could afford it everyday...plus mac n cheese, too. very anti-sweets and staying far from ice cream which is soo not like me.

[bethanta]

I haven't had any strong cravings, but some food is tasting much better now. I can't get enough dairy, and mexican has been sounding very good. :

[Tenk]

Before thi I loved, loved loved ice cream (vanilla bean) w/ crumbled reese's cups and bananas mixed in it. I tried to eat it last night, and eewwwww, it was bad, but salty and mexican taste WONDERFUL.....doesn't that mean boy????

So far for me its:
-TONS of ice water (could be due to the fact I live in AZ and its 112)
-Protein filled, hearty foods that really fill me up.

so this pregnancy is reminding me so much of my first. already i had to bake a quick bread (peach-oatmeal...soooooooooo good) because i can't choke down my morning eggs anymore unless they are paired with some kind of sweet baked good. last time eggs also made me gag unless i ate them with waffles or banana bread or zucchini bread etc. but eggs are a main source of protein so i keep trying to choke them down any way i can...luckily i bake low-sugar and whole grain!
