that I am not usually a big drinker ( I enjoy wine and other things but I never drink A LOT),

BUT, now that I am pregnant, I literally salivate over the idea of a margarita, or a glass of wine or a Sam Adams Summer Ale or a chocolate martini???

Or even a splash of Baileys in my cocoa???


I mean..............is it nature's cruel joke????????????????? :angry:

    You're making me salivate over all the yummy drinks you listed there!

    But really, I was the same way when I was pregnant... I think it's just the fact that you can't have it that makes you want it.

    It's the same reason why diets don't work - as soon as you "can't have" something, it's the one thing you want most in the world!! Good luck with the cravings - wish I could help you out there. Of course, silly me, I'll just have that chocolate martini for you!! :drinker: :drinker: :wink:

    When I was pregnant, I wanted a Smirnoff so bad that I joked I was going to pack one in my hospital bag.

    I think you crave it because you cannot have it now that you are pregnant...unless you are one to drink here a there...I mention this because I saw in the news not too long ago that some women are now drinking while pregnant and some doctors agreed that an occasional drink is not harmful to the baby. I did not drink while pregnant with my children. :flowerforyou:
