Bizarre Question - Anyone else chewing their tongue??

[LifesComplicated]

Hi, I know this is a bizarre long-shot, but I wondered if anyone else is experiencing or has experienced similar, and if it's linked to pg?

I'm 35 weeks pg and for the past 3 weeks I've been obsessed with chewing my own tongue. I can't get enough of it! I really chew down on the whole tongue, almost as if Im trying to chew the thing off, and I find it really satisfying and wierdly addictive!

I've never chewed my tongue when younger or when not pg. So I'm wondering if there's any link. Also it's crossed my mind that maybe it's because I'm veggie - could the baby be craving meat (in the form of my tongue???!).

Totally bizarre!

I know it's an old post! But I thought I was the only one! This is my 4th pregnancy and I've had it with all four starting in the 2nd trimester and all the way to the end till I give birth. Obsessed with chewing on and scraping my tongue with my teeth like a crack head... I can usually satisfy my extreme need with chewing on and rubbing my tongue on/sucking on a hot wet wash cloth. The texture is so satisfying.. Idk why. Guilty habit. I literally take 2 scalding showers a day just to satisfy my tongue scraping so I don't rip my tongue up with my teeth. Its worse than ever this 4th time around. I've chewed till I tasted blood and formed lesions. Good thing the tongue heals fast, like overnight. Idk the cause!!! Too embarrassed to ask my doctor.
