Any nursing cravings?

[veganf]

I remember our fun threads about pregnancy cravings...anyone have any nursing cravings? I really haven't so far, until about a week ago. I just crave CHOCOLATE!! Maybe it was the good french chocolate I had in Paris last weekend, or maybe my period is on it's way back , but I just can't get enough dark chocolate!! Okay, somebody will surely say I'm deficient in something .
What are you craving these days??

Oh man, I think my period is on it's way back, too. I hope I'm wrong.

Chocolate, cheese, anything snacky. Pretty much PMS cravings

I thought I made up BF'ing cravings! I have craved lots of stuff

mashed potatoes

veggies and dip

and some stuff similar to when i was pg, so i think it may just be a bad habit. :

Mini peanut butter cups...I sneak them all day.

Interesting, I often add peanut butter to the chocolate...I found some great chocolate covered peanut chews at CVS the other day!

I always crave chocolate when nursing. Seriously cannot get enough of the stuff. While I was on maternity leave, I was making 2 batches of no-bake cookies (cocoa, oatmeal, peanut butter, SUGAR) YUM! a week and I ate almost all of them every time Since I'm back to work and have much less time for cooking, I've lost some weight (imagine that.)

Me too!!

I seem to get extra thirsty in the evenings... just for water.

cranberry juice
chocolate/peanut butter

As soon as Luna latches on, my body wants nothing more than a huge glass of cold water. My 5 year old seems to know this and will bring me a glass if I don't have one right beside me.

Just food food food!! I can't get enough of it. I feel like ds is sucking me dry he eats so much. It can be 11pm and I will fix myself a gigantic sandwich with all the trimmings. I am trying to not do that so much anymore--but then again if I am up several times at night to nurse him, I need to get the energy and calories from somewhere!
