Just that really!
Only 13 weeks atm but think they're starting early!
With first pregnancy I didn't get any cravings till much further on- maybe 20+weeks?
Think I'm craving tiger bread now, I think I can smell it, it smells amazing and I'd sell my soul for a decent chunk....

BunnyTeapot · 25/01/2018 16:49

Beef baguette and gravy at about 18 weeks to 21 weeks. it appears to be chocolate peanuts now 🤦

Kittypillar · 25/01/2018 16:58

About 15 weeks I think. I was away with my husband and I burst into tears because the buffet had run out of green olives Blush

PandaCat · 25/01/2018 17:08

I'm 34 weeks and I've not had any cravings! I didn't really have any with my 1st either.

Gemlou1989 · 25/01/2018 17:14

Bath sponges! Completely weird but happened every time Blush P.s I didn't physically eat them but if I could have I would have!

Shaunieh95 · 25/01/2018 19:33

I'm 30 weeks and have only started cravings the past few weeks. All I want is cold rice pudding Grin

bonnymnemonic · 25/01/2018 20:01

About 18 weeks with bacon sandwiches!

MulderitsmeX · 25/01/2018 20:02

6 weeks beef
7 weeks bacon

Nothing since!

Sassy306 · 25/01/2018 22:57

28 weeks and the ice craving started. I'm getting through loads and have broken one of my back teeth but I can stop. I was diagnosed with anemia which can lead pica so that explain it...at least it's healthy lol

SomehowSomewhere1 · 26/01/2018 02:16

Massive craving for ice lollies in first trimester, from the moment I woke up. Second trimester was fruit. Third trimester odd cravings but nothing like previously.

Nomad86 · 26/01/2018 07:28

Can't remember when it started but red meat, fruit and milk. I could have happily had a steak pie and gravy for breakfast. My colleagues thought it was hilarious!

McTootBlowsOnHisBagpipe · 26/01/2018 07:29

Porridge!! I bloody hate the stuff and always have since a child. But I really want a bowl of porridge all the time!

Sarahh2014 · 26/01/2018 07:45

Meat,Meat and Meat! In any (cooked) form especially tinned hotdogs

Squaffle · 26/01/2018 07:51

Melted cheese... had to be melted, ‘normal’ cheese would not do! Had this from 12 weeks but was worse in 3rd trimester. Weirdly had a friend with the same craving and we both had girls on the same day!

TheBadgersMadeMeDoIt · 26/01/2018 08:27

About 13 weeks (once the sickness stopped) and I couldn't get enough nasty processed meat, preferably tinned. Corned beef, Spam, those horrible tinned pies that seem to be filled with dog food...

DSis was convinced it meant I was having a boy. (I had a girl).

Youvegotafriendinme · 26/01/2018 08:45

I had horrible morning All fucking day sicknesssickness so till about 16w, I barely ate more than a few crackers but after that I didn’t have any over powering cravings but I went through stages where that’s all I ate. I had the olive and feta cheese stage, they had to be Waitrose ones and I could eat boxes at a time then it was Vanilla yoghurts and mash potatoes (not together!)

BigBaboonBum · 26/01/2018 11:31

Spicy foods with my eldest, I can’t even remember when they started... definitely either second or third trimester. And fresh lemon juice with my youngest, that started just before my third trimester. Caused RAGING heartburn!
This time around I don’t have any cravings, not yet at least. Sometimes I REALLY want something but I haven’t craved anything more than once so I don’t think it even classes as a craving

user1499786242 · 27/01/2018 18:32

First baby it was fruit mainly, oranges and grapes! All the way through
And anything healthy, fish, tomato pasta, boiled veg, I would rather have a bag of green beans than crisps

This time it's been pure shite... crisps, chocolate also micro chips
And I wonder why I'm getting fat this time

desperatehousewife2 · 27/01/2018 19:00

The smell of white spirits, just adore it. Blush Trying to just have the odd sniff now and then.

MrWasheeWashee · 27/01/2018 19:34

Salt and vinegar crisps very early on. Then I craved sour sweets.

snowbellj · 27/01/2018 20:13

I only had cravings with third pregnancy. I was obsessed with ice lollies and frozen fruit and would eat a couple of packs each day Blush

GingerRogers84 · 27/01/2018 21:50

Once the sickness subsided at 16 weeks. It's been chocolate (Cadbury's dairy milk) and pears ever since.

Elmosmum · 27/01/2018 22:35

Cheese and pickle sandwiches and posh yogurt

redexpat · 27/01/2018 22:54

About 8 weeks. Cocopops at 930 everynight. 12 weeks on I wanted cheese and pickle sandwiches. At some point I wanted spinach all the time. Dc2 I didnt get any.

Bluesnail · 28/01/2018 12:41

Cravings starter at the end of the first trimester-chillies and sour sweets! Not together thankfully.
