Any food cravings yet?

I haven't had any unusual cravings for food but the past 2 or 3 days I just want to eat, eat, EAT! But as soon I as start to eat something, I feel full. So it feels like I am eating a ton but I only take a few bites here & there.

I'm craving coffee. Weird, I know. I don't drink coffee when I'm not pregnant, and I definitely won't now, but geez I feel like if I could just have one cappaccino (sp?) I would be in heaven.

Before I knew I was pregnant I went shopping last Wednesday and thought to myself "Some chocolate ice cream sounds really good." So I picked up a gallon of rocky road. I know lots of people have chocolate cravings when pregnant but I HATE chocolate ice cream and its half gone .

No cravings but a ton of strong aversions. Chocolate being one of them. Just the mental image of Rocky Road makes me nauseas!!

Anything with protein in it - but especially red meat, which is odd cause I don't usually eat much meat. Burgers, lasagna, meatloaf, pot roast.

So, we are an organic and vegetarian family. I wholeheartedly agree with the statement WHOLE FOODS = WHOLE paycheck. It's true!!! It's probably been over a decade since I've been to a fast food restaurant. BUT...what did I crave TWICE so far and actually got it...


KFC, yes KFC - crunchy chicken strips, mashed potatoes, and beans. OMG!!!

So far the only thing I really crave is water. I felt like this with my first pregnancy too.

i don't have any cravings per se, but sometimes something sounds delicious & it is for about 4 bites. then, i take another bite & have to spit it out, because i don't want anymore. it's more like a "when i'm done eating, i'm absolutely done & one more bite may send me over the edge" kind of thing. :

I haven't been having any cravings but I have been waking up hungry which I never do. I can go until 11 or so easily before eating a bagel or something but now as soon as I sit up I feel famished. I have been eating a lot of string cheese because it is the fastest thing I can think of.

Milkshakes! Milk! Cheese!

My dairy allergy goes away when I am pregnant so I get to indulge.

No cravings here either, but possibly an aversion.

While waiting in a Woman's Health clinic today, a pregnant (looked like a teen) woman passed me twice smelling strongly of animal crackers! I actually had to cover my nose and mouth as it was triggering my nausea something fierce!

I've been craving Thai food... but I was craving that before I got pregnant. I have managed to nearly replicate my favorite dish from our local restaurant. Close enough that it satisfies the craving AND I get to add chicken and chose the veggies that I want.

And water, I'll agree with that one too.

Yes, to cravings. I've reverted back to a time when I was 5. I suddenly find myself craving my mother's home-cooked foods (shepherds pie, roast beef, mash potatoes) and all the junk like Mac and Cheese, Spaghettios (man I want some!), all sorts of soup, and even the gross nachos that they served at school.

Yum.

Savoury foods...mostly cheese at the moment. Which makes me my own worst enemy because I am lactose intollerant ...so ive had some pretty bad bowels the past few nights...But I cant stop myself! lol

Dare I say I think ive gone off chocolate?

This pregnancy so far is very different than from when I was pregnant with my son!!!

This is how I felt my first pg too. And I've had that a several times this time too. It is just so sudden! And yeah, you don't dare swallow that bite!

Me too. I'm debating about just buying giant bricks of cheese from Costco. I want cheese on everything. But I don't necessarily want it alone. Cheese and crackers, mac and cheese, cheese on eggs, cheese on steak. The list goes on.

Vegetables and any kind of juice! I cannot stop drinking juice and Im normally a very unjuice kind of a girl.

Im also way hungrier earlier in the day than I used to be and Im eating a lot more earlier but less at night. So its working out.
