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!

Ice and fruit (especially apples)

Ice lollies in the middle of the night, in the middle of winter.

ceebee74 · 05/10/2007 18:47

heifer · 05/10/2007 18:48

No cravings in the Heifer House - I was too busy being sick EVERY day...

In fact wasn't a Heifer house during my pregnancy only before and after..

I have a DD..

BecauseImWereWolfit · 05/10/2007 18:48

ds1 - told everyone I didn't have any cravings. Just found myself stopping all over the place at different sweetie shops to buy Fruit Gums! Realised (duh) it must have been a craving. Always thought it would be for real food.

ds2 - none

TellusMater · 05/10/2007 18:57

DS - twiglets
DD - nothing

SoMuchToBats · 05/10/2007 19:07

Raw broccoli, and I also craved the smell of petrol and plasticky things. I had a boy.

berrybliss · 05/10/2007 19:19

I'm expecting a DS

At the start extra strong mints

In the middle sweets skittles, boiled fruit sweets, winegums

Towards the end anything with chocolate especially cadburys! (but am trying to limit myself)

MuffinMclay · 05/10/2007 19:28

Ds1 - strawberry jam (couldn't get enough of the stuff), also oranges, philadelphia, quavers (having not eaten them for 20 years). Went right off cheese, milk in tea and coffee, spicy food.

Ds2 (work in progress) - cheese, quince jam. Nowhere near as intense as the cravings with ds1.

Gobbledispook · 05/10/2007 19:35

Ds1 - cheese adn biscuits, crisps (which I don't normally eat)
Ds2 - Drifters (chocolate) and mashed potato
Ds3 - chocolate again I think

I think it was just a nice excuse to eat whatever I wanted and not worry about the waistline!

friendlyedjit · 05/10/2007 19:43

ALL 3 girls... Watercress and rocket by the bagful.
Potato- 3 am , DH usually had a supply on the go.
Melons, apples
PRAWNS and more prawns but couldn't stomach fish!
Occasional yen for roast beef, but detested chicken.
All reasonably healthy, although salad leaves tough on nasal passages when come up..did lots of vomiting.
No 4 at moment seems to be following similar pathway but had 3 weeks when all I could stomach was tins of "fruit cocktail" but back to prawns and watercress now thank goodness!!
Bet we'll have another gal!

HAPPYMUMOF5 · 05/10/2007 19:47

All types of red fruits with all - 3 girls and 2 boys
