Any cravings yet?

I'm 13 weeks PG and I can't stay away from sour foods.

Salt and vinegar crisps aren't enough. Neither are sour cherry cola bottle sweets.

I've discovered pomelos at my local supermarket. They're a large green citrus fruit that taste like a grapefruit. But it's not the fruit that I like - it's the rind which is as bitter as you can imagine.

Does anyone else have any cravings they'd like to share?

Cheesy Wotsits and full fat cream cheese. Not together. Although maybe I should consider it......

Baked potatoes with mature cheddar cheese (dont eat mature cheese normally), butter and salt. Crisps, peppermint crumble sweets and apples.
Totally gone off salad which I normally love.

Am still at puking stage but ate a big bag of Jelly Babies today. Keep thinking about ice-cream but don't know if I would be able to keep it down.

I'm with you purlyqueen.
Just 7 weeks and I'm into "cornichons" (tiny french pickled cucumbers) right after breakfast. And I add chili to everything.......basically, everything that makes the tongue tingle......Now Pomelo skin!...here is something that's gonna send me spinning......

16 weeks- lots of savoury cravings! Looking at jars of pickled things. Eating salt and vinegar crisps. Gherkins and olives.
Jacket potatoes and cheese. Sharp tasting cheese. Cup a soups.

Gone completely off chocolate and coffee. (And I normally have a HUGE sweet tooth!)

Posting on behalf of DW and she'd kill me if she knew I was posting on her account lol

She told me during her previous pregnancies with her ex she had a craving for pickled onions so being the ever caring husband I treated her to a nice big jar while out shopping. Upon my return she helped unpack the bags and spied the jar and her little eyes lit up like kid in a sweet shop

For the next few hours she managed to resist going to the cupboard but temptation soon got the better of her and to the kitchen she went

I followed her out to help open the jar and she was actually dribbling like a salivating dog waiting for its bone as I opened it for her. It was hilarious to see a grown woman act like that over a pickled onion
