Cravings?

[Willowrose]

I've been craving chicken and rice soup ALL day. YUMMMM!!!
Anyone else sharing the cravings with me?

I'm craving anything salty. I'm also craving cheese.

Ummm, not really. Well yeah, chocolate! I know that's bad, but I am not having very much....?
Oh, Willowrose, thanks for the compliment the the due date list .

No, but I feel like I've had a hole in my stomach all day. It's weird, because normally I crave cheese and chocolate premenstrually, but I feel completely normal. Not premenstrual, and not pregnant.

I have what I would also describe as a hole in my stomach feeling all of the time! It's really uncomfortable and I am hungry with growling stomach for much of the day (despite my frequent, protein-rich snacks.) This also happened to me during the first trimester of my other pregnancies. I have found that I crave nuts (cashews, almond butter, peanut butter, etc.) and that they are one of the only things that relieve that feeling.

i actually don't feel hungry most of the day, but am eating comfort foods anyways...i do have a craving for gatorade and potatoes (yumm)....i am eating hard boiled eggs in the morning though to make sure i eat protein...even though they don't exactly taste all that great...and eating oatmeal in morning to make sure i have enough fiber....but i don't think it's problem with my loose stools...

I'm just all over the board with cravings and things I won't eat. With Nathan I avoided chicken and I feel those avoiding feelings creep up again! I was drinking orange juice all the time (every day and a lot) but we ran out. For the last three days I've been dying for more! Dan got some tonight but it wasn't enough to fill the "hole". Even a banana and orange juice wasn't enough so I just finished half of a huge avocado.. that's better - I still wish it was a hamburger but I'll take an avocado!

Anyone else just not hungry? This is so weird for me. Usually I am VERY hungry during the first trimester and craving horrible foods that are high in fat. My husband usually loves the 1st trimester because I ask him to go get me foods I would normally never eat (fast food, etc). The food-issue part of me is loving this not hungry thing, but the normal side just thinks it's weird! Maybe this is a girl? (I have 3 boys)

zjandozmom, i'm feeling the exact same way...i was completely hungry with my ds in the 1st trimester, but am not feeling hungry at all....and normally i have a big appetite anyways...so it feels bizarre to me that i'm not hungry....

Ok- I just posted about not being hungry and today I wanted a cheeseburger BAD! I made my husband go out and get a good one (not some nasty mcdoodoo's burger) from the Vortex I devoured it as my kids watched. I just so rarely eat that type of thing. Now I know I am pregnant

I have been craving protien. Anything with lots of protien. For the past 3 days, I"ve eaten 2 eggs with cheese for breakfast, and I don't see that changing any time soon. Cheese in general sounds great, but then it always does to me. Chicken, beef, any meat. Dh and I went to this restaurant the other night (the night before I found out I was pg), and I had the biggest bison burger ever (with cheese ), and french fries, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. I'd love a repeat of that meal! Without the shortcake. Suddenly, sweet things sound yucky to me. Not yucky enough to call it an aversion, but not very yummy.
