What were your cravings?

With my first pregnancy I never had any cravings, maybe ice water but I put that down to being pregnant in summer.

This time, I'm literally only 4 weeks and I dreamt of Branston pickle!! I've always hated it, this time I dreamt of it and when I ate it I loved it. How strange? Prior to this I never thought cravings were really a thing.

What were you're cravings, and when did you start having them?

Any weird and wonderful ones?

Broccoli! Don't really like it normally! DH was out and I'd cooked a pizza with some broccoli on the side, I ate all the broccoli and left the pizza, then went and cooked more broccoli!

Also gherkins... mmm

And fizzy strawberry laces - I'm not usually into sweets, prefer chocolate, but I couldn't get enough of them. Actually went off chocolate completely for a few weeks, it tasted like sweet wax!

All that was roughly 7-15 weeks I think, now at 30 wks it's pretty much back to normal!
