I'm 7 weeks today and all I want is burgers 🤣 anything meaty...
I just can't eat anything healthy! I don't fancy it at all.
Curious to know of yours?

So far, Bunny Bites (tescos own pom bears) mini milks and less a craving, more a necessity - litres of gaviscon!

lolateddy · 24/03/2021 19:37

Nail files, PICA is a beautiful thing...

Badger2021 · 24/03/2021 19:53

Salt and vinegar. I ate a lot of chips!! But it was actually the salt and vinegar I wanted.

firstimemamma · 24/03/2021 19:53

Satsumas.

Cold milk especially with cereal in my first pregnancy while in my second milk made me feel sick.
Anything sugary in my second.

Lou98 · 24/03/2021 19:55

Pickled onions from the chippy! I'm 31 weeks now and have went through 2 massive chippy sized jars!

Other than that, anything tangy (salt and vinegar, pickled onion crisps, sour sweets)

GeoffreyGeoffreys · 24/03/2021 19:56

Last pregnancy was chips. This time it's chocolate, I'm obsessed. And I've never been fussed about chocolate. I hope it goes once DD is born.

lolateddy · 24/03/2021 19:56

@Lou98 sounds so similar to me! If it's not burgers it's pickled anything 🤣. And just had a whole bag of sour skittles. Oops! Hopefully soon I will fancy the healthier options...

First son
Chips & gravy
Fish so much fish or just straight out of a tin

Litres of milk and yoghurt

Propers burgers rare!

niceupthedance · 24/03/2021 20:00

Mustard and wasabi peas (not together)

ZackaryQuack · 24/03/2021 20:00

Salt, I would literally suck the salt off of ready salted crisps and bin them.
Pringles has the best coating.

YessicaHaircut · 24/03/2021 20:01

Sour jelly sweets like Haribo Tangfastics. And fruit shortcake biscuits, I used to always have several packets in my desk drawer at work! I went completely off meat as well and haven’t fancied it much since.

Tangledtresses · 24/03/2021 20:01

Second son

Anything pickled or red
Red cabbage
Strawberry
Raspberry
Beetroot

Pizza

Coffee can't stand it now

Absolutely no onions garlic or spices

LivingMyBestLife2020 · 24/03/2021 20:01

In the early days it was Big Mac sauce.

Later on it was cheese balls (but only the ones from Tesco) dry cornflakes straight out the box and gallons and gallons of fizzy water. The fizzy water was the worst, I NEEDED it 🤣

TheScurrilousFunge · 24/03/2021 20:02

Pineapple. I ate so much it made my mouth sore.

TheVanguardSix · 24/03/2021 20:07

Fries, tortilla chips, crisps, anything deep-fried, milkshakes. I really craved milkshakes the most in all of my pregnancies. I kind of knew I was pregnant when I'd start craving milkshakes.
I remember drinking olive oil from spoons with DC1. So weird. Hmm
I also went fruit and smoothie mad with DD (along with all of the greasy, salty cravings).

theculture · 24/03/2021 20:07

Very large mugs of hot water and stock cubes

theculture · 24/03/2021 20:08

. . . And sadly went off tea

PandaBabyJuly · 24/03/2021 20:08

At the beginning ... pasta, mash, gherkins

Currently 27 weeks .... pickled onion monster munch, mash, Coca Cola, salmon and salad ..... and the smell of things Blush white spirit, t-cut, undercoat paint, wood

Mysleepingangel · 24/03/2021 20:14

In my first pregnancy, all I wanted was rice, pasta and fried eggs. I remember telling my midwife that I had 2 fried eggs at 11pm the night before and she was shocked 😂 sadly that pregnancy ended at 20 weeks.

This time around, I want meat. I'm only 5 weeks along but I want meat with gravy on top 🙈anything meaty. Last pregnancy, I couldn't stand the stench that came from meat 😳
Let's see what else I crave this time 😂

Mysleepingangel · 24/03/2021 20:14

Oo and I keep thinking about smoked salmon.. Mmm

lolateddy · 24/03/2021 20:20

@Mysleepingangel I'm so sorry for your loss. That must of been really difficult.

We sound very similar! I'm the same as you with the meat and gravy 🤣. I've had a bacon bagel this morning, a sausage sandwich for lunch and I've made dp make us burgers for dinner Blushnot sure I should carry on like this for much longer but it's ALL I want!!

First pregnancy I craved ice, onion rings and taco chicken baguettes.

Second pregnancy I craved paper. The smell of magazines, books etc made my mouth water 🤤 I had to buy rice paper to satisfy the craving but it never did lol
