I craved Starbuck Mocha frapps and A&W rootbeer. I was even able to quit smoking but I couldn't bare the thought of saying goodbye to my sweet, sweet coffee

PapaverSomniferum

mexican food

fried pickles in mustard

mints, toothpaste, and minty-flavored-things

root beer floats with chocolate-chip-mint ice cream

but most of all,

ICE

loads and loads of ice

i used to take peppermint extract and freeze it into ice cubes, then eat it by the tray-full

and i judged all restaurants and gas stations by the quality of their ice

lol ya actually quit drinking when i was pregnant... and never even wanted or craved liquor... i drank alot before my first born... so i knew there was a problem when i didnt even want liquor anymore lol... i felt sick even by the smell..

VelociMama

Lately, it's been dark chocolate, though I have had a lot more food aversions than cravings along the way. I couldn't stand the smell or sight of meat for several weeks early on.

I did have a serious french fry craving in my first trimester.

i just settled on brushing my teeth a dozen times a day.

the mint and ice craving traveled through the entirety of both my pregnancies

i also popped mint-flavored tums like crazy, because I always had heartburn from all the mexican food and mint candy

mint's okay. I like it.

However, when I was knocked up, minty stuff is almost all I could think about! (that is, between crying fits, nausea, and utter exhaustion)

and I never eat ice outside of pregnancy. It hurts my teeth.

I didn't crave any thing but when I was pregnant with my daughter I could not stand new England clam chowder. I couldn't even watch commercials with it made me want to puke. I really liked it before but oh my when I was pregnant... It took me years before I started eating it again.

Candied salmon is salmon that is dried out or smoked with some sort of sweet glaze like a bit of honey. So good, I could eat half a salmon this way. Mmmmm.

DawnieB1977

In both my pregnancies I really craved carbs in the first trimester. Couldn't get enough toast and sandwiches! I also craved fruit, but probably because it's refeshing and I was thirsty more. Towards the end of my 1st pregnancy I really wanted sweet things, and all through my 2nd I wanted sweet things. Both times I couldn't stand greasy food.
