Ok so sort of thought this was a pregnancy myth but didn't feel like my dinner tonight at all (fish and potatoes), then had a weird idea I would like it with mayo and apricot jam... And I did! (8-9 weeks)

over that past couple of weeks, my diet has revolved around black olives and cherry tomatoes. I don't even like cherry tomatoes!!! During the morning sickness weeks, peanut butter went on everything, including a potato waffle. I'm looking forward to the fruit cravings, as I normally don't like fruit and need some of this in my diet.

Mad! Bubbless I've found that too, can't shop in a planned way as I usually do as what I feel like changes every single day and what I love one minute grosses me out the next :(

my DP has to keep going to the corner shop to buy stuff for my dinner! atm im on cereals and fruit, not too bad on the healthy scale!!
although does anyone feel like they are spending a fortune as no weekly / monthly shop will cater to my changing needs!!

I had a serious one for spaghetti bolognese for a couple months early- mid pg (now 38 wks) . I just wanted to eat it EVERY night so if it was 3 x in a week I was doing well!
pg 1 and 2 had lots of pickle + cheddar sarnies
now mostly just sweet stuff and stawberry yahoo
I do get a weird feeling when I eat rennies that I wish I could buy something to eat that was that chalky and sometimes I want to eat my toothpaste!

31 weeks and can't get enough iced water and raw carrots!

Today put some nachos in the pasta sauce to thicken it up - yummy!

Maiziemonkey, have you had your bloods checked recently? A sign of craving things that aren't food, chalk and toothpaste, (which is a condition called PICA) can be that your iron is low. Just a thought.

My only craving during this pregnancy has been ice, courteous of my anemia. I had to start limiting my amount as it was hurting my teeth and jaw, all the crunching.
