    With my son: Hot wings and anything vinegary like salt and vinegar chips.

    With my daughter: veggies, fruit, and chocolate.

    The funny thing is now my son loves veggies and fruit and my daughter loves hot and vinegary foods.

    Sour, tart things - lemonade, pickles, green olives - anything pickled or in a brine, couldn't get enough! I worked in a grocery store at the time, and spent a lot of time on my breaks in the deli, ordering my own little portions of olives and pickles for snacks! :bigsmile:

    Couldn't get enough cranapple juice either.

    pregnancy with daughter - craved veggie pizza (wanted NO pepperoni which i loved prior to pregnancy), quarter pounders with cheese, any pasta with red sauce, potato chips, tomatoes (hated them before pregnancy!), salads and tacos.

    pregnancy with son - craved brownies, cookies, burger king chicken sandwiches, CAKE, icecream, milk (which i was not a big fan of before) watermelon and candy!

    Now that I write that out, its easy to see why I only gained 25 pounds with my daughter and a whopping 45 pounds with my son! lol

    With my first and second, I didn't have any cravings and I thought it was a myth, or an excuse for women to eat whatever they want...

    Then I had my 3rd and I had severe cravings for pineapple!! I couldnt get enough...I would just eat it and eat it...I'd buy 3 large already peeled and eat all of it...I sent my hubby out to get it for me a few times late at night.
    Then I truly understood the cravings...

    The very first thing was fried chicken. I didn't eat meat for about 7 months then I had an unbelieveable craving for fried chicken. Then 3 days later it was for an Italian beef sandwich. The next morning I found out I was pregnant.

    Chinese food - whether it's from the Chinese buffet, a greasy dive or making it at home
    Waffles
    McDonald's steak, egg, and cheese bagel
    Taco Bell chicken burritos
    Cheeseburgers

    Beer, gin, sushi and sex.

    Baby Charlotte will be here 3/3/13

    My first pregnancy I craved broccoli and brown rice together - no matter what else we ate for dinner I had to have broccoli and brown rice. I also craved pink grapefruits in both pregnancies. In the first pregnancy I also craved pizza.

    Horror of horrors in my second pregnancy chocolate tasted metallic and repugnant :noway: :noway: That was how I figured out I was pregnant. We were eating chocolate rugelach and I said, "Yuck! These are bad - they taste weird!" My then husband said, "You're crazy, these are delicious."

    PS both of mine were girls and I didn't crave anything spice in either pregnancy. :)
  • Honestly Craved a Dard beer almost the whole time I was pregnant and DIDN'T DO IT. I did however find out why I craved it. I was Vitamin B deficient and after I started taking supplements I was good.

    CRAVED Tacos from a place called Taco Cabana here in New Mexico. My son would do the "Taco HAPPY DANCE" inside my womb.

    Queso, Jalapenos and home made tortilla chips from Taco Cabana.

    Peanut Butter and Mayo on rye bread.

    Peanut Butter on Toast with a Fried Egg on top.

    At the end it got to be more abouy sweets. Coffee Ice Cream with nuts. Dark Choc. with Nuts andything with NUTS.

    When I was pregnant with my daughter, I craved Burger King veggie burgers and cheesy tots! Oh dear lord could I eat those. Oh and orange juice. I would drink an entire carton of Minute Maid low acid pulp free orange juice a day!

    The worst one was fresh pineapple! I wanted it soooo badly and it was so hard to find where I lived at the time. It got to the point that my little sister found one where she lived (1.5 hours away) and wrapped it up and presented it as a gift as at my baby shower!

    My entire first trimester I couldn't stand the smell of bacon and I LOVE bacon! I was a manager at McDonald's at the time and had to request I be moved to closing shifts so I could avoid the smell of bacon cooking.

    1st boy - V8 (though the last trimester I couldn't stand it. Before then, though, I drank gallons of the stuff).

    2nd boy - raw tomatoes (NEVER got sick of this one - the more the better!)

    The 2nd boy I was gestationally diabetic, so I barely had any weight gain with the diabetic diet (boo!) The first boy I gained what I was supposed to.

    Cool topic!
