Hi everyone 💖

This may have been asked before but I'm interested to know about the cravings you experienced

Basically I'm pregnant with baby no.3 very surprise baby but am happy I'm currently
7+4 weeks .

I've been craving fizzy drinks like cherry coke - never had this in my last pregnancies but I used to love pepperoni pizza and now I've gone of it . Is there any tips to stop drinking loads of fizzy as I suffer with migraines normally and been advised by doctor to cut down my caffeine so this is something I want
To try . But finding it hard . Would really love some tips :)

What was your gender ?

some ppl say they craved it a lot when pregnant with boys? Is that true

Please no negative comments 💖

I have found the fizzy drinks helping with the feeling of sickness but really trying to limit them. I'm 7 + 6. I had a girl last time but feel really different this time. I've mainly been craving toast and pom bear crisps x

Could you buy sparkling water and add squash/ cordial or fruit juice? I find that works as a good alternative to fizzy drinks for me and there’s no caffeine in them.

I didn't have any particular cravings in any of my three pregnancies. All my children are boys.

The only annoying thing was that I normally drink loads of tea but went off it completely when pregnant with my third son.

You can get caffeine free coke. It was a god send during my 4th. Wishing you well.
