Ok, its pointless poll time.

What cravings did you have and if you have more than one DC, what was the sex?

Am just having a bit of fun to see if i can predict what this one is going to be before ethe scan although i know that its all boys on DPs side so likely to be another boy!

O.k. just to confuse you I had triplets and during my pg I craved Fresh orange juice (I would drink litres of it,in the end I had to water it down!!) and peaches. Oh and I actually cried because my DH got me peaches that came in a tray and not in a basket!!!

SharpMolarBear · 05/10/2007 13:47

salad, particularly celery, and fruit (those little mandarin sections you can get in pots).
Completely went off curry / spicy stuff and coffee.
Not sure whether these were cravings as such or just linked to the ms.
Had a boy.

Heinz tomato soup with loads of black pepper and it had to be in a mug - had a boy.

smartarse, i was ashamed. i could only get it in one or two shops, and after a while, i used to walk in, and the staff would just hand me a box of hubba bubba

I think that's hysterical, I really do! I mean 20 PACKS A DAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm mighty impressed!

colditz · 05/10/2007 13:57

pregnancy 1 - cornflakes, cheese sandwiches, yoghurt, sterilised milk =- Boy.

pregnancy 2 - Twister ice lollies, lemonade, rice crispies, carrots and sprouts, black pudding. - boy.

I think it is more to do with your own body's vitimin and minerel deficiencies.

colditz · 05/10/2007 13:58

Oh yes, tropicana oranage juice for ds2 as well. Mixed with soda water, had to be the one with juicy bits.

MerlinsBeard · 05/10/2007 13:59

mmmm twisters

DS2 (Currently under development) Ice lollies and ice.

Piffle · 05/10/2007 14:19

strawberries and melon =boy
lager and carrots = girl
licorice and ice cream = boy (although to be fair the ice cream craving has not stopped even though he is 6 mths old)
