Ewww ginger beer! People kept suggesting that to me for sickness but it would have made it worse.

I was right into big macs at first, which is strange because I don't really like meat!! Couldn't get enough of them though. So don't blush. :o

40 weeks and nothing at all!

MsChanandlerBong · 23/06/2011 18:05

My cravings have eased a bit now (currently 28 weeks) but in the first 12 weeks I couldn't get enough cheese on toast or tomato sandwiches. Oh and I couldn't contemplate starting the day without a bowl of some sort of cereal (normally a toast person!).

Now I mostly eat biscuits... but nothing pregnancy related there!

Pickled Onion crisps.
Orange flavoured chocolate.
Grapes.

I hate crisps & chocolate normally!

babycarmen · 23/06/2011 18:16

7up and salt+vinegar crisps...very healthy! With DD it was sponge cake (which i hate) and disinfectant.... (i didnt drink it, dont worry, just couldnt get enough of the smell!!)

I think I've had about 3 terrys chocolate oranges in the last month Blush

TransatlanticCityGirl · 23/06/2011 18:22

SchrodingersMews - really, nothing! I've gone off meat, but I've not craved anything the entire pregnancy. But I'm also a bit of a freak of nature :)

Strange isn't it? It's the time everyone tells you to eat meat as well.

Awomancalledhorse · 23/06/2011 18:49

Oooh! I've gone off chicken, can't stand to look at it (even on tv)!

I'll pop into my local Asda & raid their chocolate orange supply.
I've eaten 4 packets of crisps today Blush

Big Macs here too! They were the only food that didn't make me feel or actually be sick in the first 17 weeks! Glad its not just me!

Does anyone else find it strange how the foods people say will make you feel worse are normally the ones that make you feel better?

I was like that with Fry Ups! :o
