I'm 6 weeks pregnant and my cravings for Chinese takeaways are driving me to distraction. I keep imagining scoffing my face with hoisin chicken and spring rolls despite the fact I wasn't remotely fussed about Chinese food before.

What food cravings are you experiencing during your pregnancy?

What on earth even causes it?!

When I was in my first trimester I could not get enough of clementines. I was on about 10 a day. I was obsessed.

I havent had cravings, but am more partial to things. So I'll want marmite quite frequently, or tomato and mozzarella salad. I generally want fresh food, like veg and juices. I wouldn't say my diet has really changed...

From 5 weeks until a couple of days ago 7.5 weeks now) all I ate was tacos with fresh salsa and satsumas. The last few days its switched to melons and cheese and onion crisps (desperately craving prawn cocktail crisps but I live abroad and they don't sell them here)

When I was pregnant with DD I ate about a kilo of plums every day in the 3rd trimester.

For me its been orange soda and olive oil Hmm just love the smell of olive oil, and bread dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar is just the best. thing. ever. So weird, was not that bothered about it until I was making a marinade with it last night and I was just like 'gimme that stuff now!', I could've drunk it!
