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?

First pregnancy nothing!

This time, soo many cravings.. orange juice is the big one, any fruit but especially a crisp green apple, sweets and chocolate - basically sweet things.

31 weeks - Fizzy sweets / pick n mix (never fussed about this before!), bacon has been a big one - love a bacon sandwich, lots of milk and cereal and smoothies (bit of health there 😂)

Raw carrots in the third trimester of my second pregnancy. I couldn't get enough of that crunchy, orange goodness. We were in the first lockdown but I sent DH on numerous trips to pick up a bag. Probably ate around 20 a day!!!

Salt and vinegar crisps initially and later on McDonalds strawberry milkshake. I also wanted to lick new tyres but restrained myself!

With DD, it was mint aeros. I ploughed through those bad boys.

DD now loves them. Blush

I am currently craving beer!!!! I don't like beer normally and obviously I can't drink it currently- it's torture!!!

And Earl grey tea that I normally like I can't stand.

He's a handful already!!

Anything sweet! Orange juice and cakes/chocolate have been a big hit.

FruitLoopzz · 24/03/2021 21:50

Oh and tons of irn bru

fairydustandpixies · 24/03/2021 22:08

DS1 born in January - craved porridge with milk (hate porridge and milk even more). DS2 born in August - craved chilled Angel Delight (made with milk!). Ate masses and loads of both. Haven't either ever since! 🤢

buckingmad · 24/03/2021 22:36

I really went off meat and still not massive on it (21 weeks). Cravings early on were marmite on toast and clementines. Now it’s skittles.

Craving SALTY STUFF and SOUR STUFF and SPICY STUFF

BIGGEST CRAVING OF THEM ALL...
cheese.

I don't even eat cheese!!!!! I don't even like cheese usually! Such a craving I can't describe it. My partner thinks it's hilarious as do I hahaha 😂😂😂

Congrats on your pregnancy ❤️❤️❤️

Joe50 · 24/03/2021 23:34

Natural yoghurt kept out of the fridge so that it curdled, I got through a big tub each night. Cooking apples and filling my car up with petrol and smelling it. I literally could have drank the petrol! I didn't 😂

Sunflowerx · 24/03/2021 23:56

Can't stop eating dairylea dunkers jumbo tubes and picked onion monster munch!

Mysleepingangel · 25/03/2021 10:48

@lolateddy

Thank you hun, it was tough. But we're excited for this little bean and hoping for a better outcome this time.

That's crazy 😂 to be honest, protein is better than carbs because I'm sooooo bloated, and carbs don't help that at all.

I think I'm going to make some sausages and chips with gravy now 😳

ApplesPearsAndCrumble · 25/03/2021 10:50

ham and cheese paninis. (I was vegetarian, but definitely succumbed).

Also oranges. In regular times I would have an orange maybe once per year. When pregnant I had one a day.

Also tinned peaches and vanilla icecream.

SteakChips · 25/03/2021 10:52

Mine was cans of sugar free cream soda , followed with garlic and onions.. that past and now lots of jelly type sweets lol.

ancientgran · 25/03/2021 10:57

first one it was marshmallows, those big squashy pink and white ones.
second one it was peaches - the local greengrocers thought it was hilarious when I started going in twice a day.
third nothing
fourth it was cabbage. DH threatened consequences if I didn't stop serving cabbage for lunch and dinner every day.

BrownEyedGirl80 · 25/03/2021 10:57

Meat,meat and meat.
Burgers,hotdogs,kebabs and meat pies.I had a boy.

HeyMicky · 25/03/2021 11:02

Cheap sushi. Not high quality fish, which would have been fine, but nasty supermarket chiller sushi, where the variable temperatures would have definitely given me food poisoning

kaylrich67 · 25/03/2021 11:31

I'm 17 weeks and literally have no cravings yet, never have either 😂 I'm always starving mind lol

1boo1 · 25/03/2021 11:45

We've noticed mine is anything beige and carbs 😂 started as supernoodles, then to mash and beans, jacket and beans, cereal, breakfast biscuits (plain!), bread and cheese.. Ham cheese sandwiches... Very very boring diet atm at 10 weeks 😂 usually a big foodie and love chocolate but gone off flavour and choc!

lolateddy · 25/03/2021 13:00

@BrownEyedGirl80 will be so interesting to see if I have a boy due to my meat obsession too 🤣🤣
Just started to think about lunch but I just don't know what I fancy apart from a sausage roll Blush

Didn't crave anything and also didn't go off anything. Everything as normal food wise which was a bit unexpected
