What did you crave in pregnancy? Sweet or savoury?

[Andyetanothernamechange]

Inspired by another thread, I craved sweet food with both of my pregnancies and both were girls - chocolate with the first and orange juice with the second.

Does savoury mean boy and sweet mean girl? What were your cravings?

DS1 Savoury- cheese and onion pasties
DS2 Savoury-Meat (any meat!!)
DS3 Sweet - Victoria Sponge, Apple Turnover and White chocolate

Oh-and orange juice with all 3!!

Hi
Boy first girl second with both i was sooo sick but HAD TO HAVE AN ICE L;OLLY AT 11PM. And bless him husband would go out and get me one..

DD1 - magnum ice creams
DD2 - micro chips, ritz crackers

It was mainly smells that I craved, like cleaning stuff to be honest!

My pregnancies and bumps were completely different as well, but still ended up with 2 DDs.

Ds1 cheese, cheese doodles and all things dairy
DS2 Wispas

Mince pies and grapes. I had a boy.

Both - spinach
Ds - cocopops at 930 everynight first trimester
Wnd trimester cheese and pickle sandwiches

Dd - salt and vinegar crisps
Orange juice
Potatoes

Opal fruits and the occasional fizzy drink. I was never one for things like lemonade and coke but when pregnant, I bought a can to have at work every day. I also started eating roast beef which I'd previously hated, sprouts and carrots (I still like them, that hasn't left me).

Went right off cheese, chocolate and coffee.

For me it’s been milkshake and roast chicken so far - really struggling with the last one, I’m vegetarian, haven’t given in but I have never wanted something as much as I want roast chicken right now, and the craving has been there for over a month, it doesn’t stop, honestly all I can think about. At least with the milkshake I can just have milkshake

Hard boiled eggs, nuts and purple Listerine mouthwash. Obviously I didn't drink the mouth wash! I had a boy.

Cherry tomotoes - I ate 1-2 punnets a day. And spinach. Boy.

I didn't really have cravings first time, but went right off sweet things (and I normally have quite a sweet tooth) so ended up eating more savoury. That was/is a boy.

Currently 11 weeks with DC2 and much the same has happened, though my sickness is less bad and my taste for sweet things is coming back.

I wish I craved anything sweet or savoury. For me it’s rubber bands to chew on!

Nope.

I craved plain/dark chocolate and pastries with DD1. Bacon sarnies and cheese with DD2. 2 totally different girls but both girls!

STrawberry jam - boys

First pregnancy i had sweet cravings..mainly doughnuts Had a girl.

Second pregnancy no food cravings at all but I could not get enough of smells! The main 2 being new car smell and new trainer smell. I actually bought 2 new pairs of converse, they stayed in the box for the entire pregnancy. Instead of wearing them, I just wanted to inhale them! Had a boy.

Salt and vinegar crisps - girl. And ginger nuts early on but that was because they warded off morning sickness, not exactly a craving.

No cravings whatsoever in either pregnancy - both boys.

1st pregnancy - Watermelon. Boy
2nd pregnancy - nothing. Boy

Cheese and marmite on toast - boy

Cornflakes, pasta with pesto and sausages! It was a girl.

I didn't have any food cravings but I craved the smell of bleach. It was bizarre! I had a boy.

With the first I didn't crave anything, he's a boy. Second it was Cadbury's Double Decker bars, a girl. Third it was grapefruit, a boy.

First pregnancy- cucumbers (like a whole cucumber at a time), wotsits and orange calypso's. Girl.
Second pregnancy- tomatoes, tuna sandwiches and smelling beer bottles. Boy.
Third pregnancy- chocolate milkshakes by the litre, pickled onions and gherkins, and prawn sandwiches. Girl.

I was the same with apple juice! A litre and a half a day, and apples did not do the trick at all!
