Hey guys,
So I have been craving chocolate throughout my pregnancy and I even started a thread about it months ago to see if it was ok. Well it balanced out fine and my diet has not been all bad so I felt ok about it.
But, the last couple of weeks have been crazy chocolate fuelled days! I have eaten a massive family sized chocolate bar (the huge Cadbury's one's) within 24 hours. It has gotten to the point that all I can think about is chocolate and I feel like it is too much for my LO to handle (currently 28 weeks).
Today I tried to curb my cravings by eating something else whenever it got really bad but ended up eating so much my stomach hurt. Plus I seem to just feel hungry when I am craving chocolate so thought eating something else would satisfy the craving and get rid of it. I was wrong. And even then I had had an ice cream in the afternoon. I finally gave in and had some chocolate a little while ago and the feeling of hunger and craving has gone.
Is this weird? I am really worried about my chocolate intake right now as I can't seem to control it. Plus the fact that I actually feel hungry even though I am not till I eat a bit of chocolate.
Can the cravings really get this bad?
